Different people have different preferences as far as e-liquid flavours are concerned. This varies depending on age, lifestyle and just plain old personal preference. Therefore, it is perfectly possible that your favourite flavour isn’t on this list but, in general, these are currently the three most popular e-liquid flavours among vapers in the UK right now.
Menthol
Menthol (mint) is so far ahead of almost every other flavour that it is very unlikely to lose its firm number one position as the most preferred e-liquid flavour anytime soon. In fact, menthol, aka mint, has been around or on top of the list from the very beginning of the e-cig revolution in the UK. However, the recent ban on all mint cigarettes may have played a huge role in skyrocketing demand for menthol flavoured e-liquids to its present height.
Don’t make the same mistake that a lot of other new vapers are making now. There is no point in trying to stock up on your favourite menthol blend e-liquids, because that would be both unnecessary and fruitless. Contrary to popular belief, even e-liquids will do go bad, and they will go bad much faster if you don’t follow the storage rules properly. Consult the linked guide on AquaVape if you are new to e-liquids. It has all the information you could possibly need to always keep your favourite e-liquid in stock, without letting them spoil. Most importantly though, the government has only banned menthol flavoured traditional cigarettes and they have no plans of banning menthol blend e-liquids for the foreseeable future either.
Tobacco
So, how do you switch from smoking to vaping without going through the psychological effects? Most smokers turned vapers agree that tobacco flavoured e-liquids are the answer. There are sufficient stats to confirm that smokers in the country are indeed shifting from smoking cigarettes to vaping at a much faster rate than before.
For a majority of ex-smokers, tobacco is the most obvious flavour of choice for e-liquids, which makes sense. The only competition menthol has ever had was from tobacco, which is of course, the second most popular flavour for vapers even now. Before the mint rush took over, tobacco was in higher demand for a time. In a new trend, menthol and tobacco blends are getting a lot of attention from vapers recently, which is probably a side effect of the menthol cigarette ban.
Cherry
Rising just above the growing popularity of mixed-fruit blends, cherry flavoured e-liquids are the third most popular among vapers in the UK. If you have not tried cherry before, make sure that the blend you buy has been sweetened adequately. Without the right amount of sweetening, cherry blends tend to smell almost too medicinal.
Despite there being propaganda all around, rest assured that the British government considers vaping to be a much safer form of nicotine delivery than smoking. There is active proof to support the theory and any flavour which is permitted in the country should not have any more or less adverse health effects on a vaper than another.
In other words, whether you like tobacco, cherry or vanilla, the choice of flavour will not affect your health in any significant way. Note that this only applies to e-liquid products manufactured and sold by government registered and regulated companies.
