100mg nicotine smells and tastes like Graham crackers?
submitted about 4 years ago by Extra_Rock1169

I just got a liter of 100mg in the mail from nicotine giant. I haven't bought the pg and vg yet. I opened the bottle and smelled it and it smells kind of like Graham crackers. I mixed it with some 8mg juice that I bought to make 20mg just so I could try it. I can taste this graham cracker taste in the 20mg juice I made. Its giving me a good buzz and I can definitely feel it in my chest. Is this smell/taste normal? It doesn't taste bad but I can definitely taste it in my RTA. On the bottle it says it was mixed August 26 2021. Its pg base. The juice I mixed it with is 80/20.

It came in a huge plastic bottle. The outside of the bottle smells like a balloon. Maybe the flavor from the plastic is making the nicotine taste like this? It was probably sitting in a hot mail truck for the past few days.

Hi. Plastic doesn’t taste like graham crackers, I doubt it’s that. Nicotine at 100mg does have a chemical scent to it though which most describe as „nutty“. I‘d venture to say that that’s what you are experiencing. I don’t think you‘ll taste it at 3mg.

Yeah its weird. It's like a nutty, wood, kind of flavor. I guess that's normal then? The only way I could describe it was graham cracker.

It's much harder to tell whether your nic has a funny taste or not when mixed with a recipe that has flavoring. When your pg/vg comes in, make a small flavorless test batch in your preferred nic strength. This is the most accurate way of testing it.

It's very obviously the nicotine. I can smell it in the bottle.

You're vaping 20mg freebase in a dl rta?

Yes. I'm using low wattage. I used to vape high nic all the time. When I get the rest of the stuff I need I'm going to make 3mg. I just wanted to try the nicotine. My mtl pod is full right now and my rta was empty so I just put it in the rta. Its definitely pretty strong even on 7 watts.

You try nic salt for low wattage devices. Then mix any strength you want
