When we switch to the electronic cigarette, we are looking above all for the favourite E-liquid, but how to choose the e-liquid that is closest to our good old cigarette. Some will completely focus on different flavours and fall for fruity or minty. For others, the search for the sensation of smoking a cigarette is stronger, so they are looking for tobacco and only tobacco.

Some will completely focus on different flavours and fall for fruity or minty. For others, the search for the sensation of smoking a cigarette is stronger, so they are looking for tobacco and only tobacco.
Tobacco flavour, not tobacco cigarette flavour
First of all, it is important to remember that we are talking about tobacco E-liquid and not tobacco cigarette flavoured E-liquid. This notion is important because by passing the course on the electronic cigarette you must give up finding the same flavour as when smoking your traditional cigarette and at the risk of disappointing you, know that you will not find the same flavour as when you smoke your cigarette. And luckily, since you probably wouldn’t appreciate the flavour. It is above all the combustion of the cigarette which is very difficult to imitate.
Determine what to replace
The first question to ask is first of all what we are looking to replace. We will not all adopt the same tobacco-flavoured e-liquid depending on the brand of cigarettes that we usually smoke. Indeed, whether you smoke blond, brown, light, oriental tobacco, or full-bodied cigarettes… the choice of e-liquid will vary.
Recommending you a particular e-liquid is very difficult. However, there are certain tobacco e-liquids, which have proven themselves to vapers. You can easily find consumer reviews to guide you in your choice.
We can cite:
- Tribeca by Halo (at the top of the ranking, it is also one of the best-selling liquids in its category, tobacco e-liquid)
- Halo Bounty 15
- Halo’s Turkish Tobacco
- Love Blond by Ben Norton
- USA Classic by D’lice
- Blue Velvet by Cloud Vapor
- Pulp Tennesse Blend Tobacco
- … And much more …
Adjust the nicotine level accordingly
Whether you smoke Marlboro light or Philip brown, the nicotine level must be adapted, as a general rule you can base yourself on these indications:
– Consumption beyond 20 cigarettes per day: 12 mg/ml and more
– Consumption between 10 and 20 cigarettes per day: 6 to 12 mg/ml
– Consumption less than 10 cigarettes per day: 3 to 6 mg/ml
It’s up to you to adapt the nicotine level according to the more or less strong flavour of your tobacco e-liquid.
Dare to think outside the box
The last tip and probably the most important is to encourage you to discover flavours other than tobacco flavours. With the electronic cigarette, you will discover new sensations and new pleasures, without necessarily always vaping the same flavour. Depending on the occasion, for example, outings with friends, parties, etc., you can opt for other flavours.
The most important thing is to have fun and not to remain obsessed with preconceptions. Be aware that most vapers prefer tobacco flavours to elaborate recipes that combine caramel, nuts, and red fruits…. rather than simple tobacco flavours that can seem bland and dry over time. At first, the descriptions are sometimes wildly surprising but don’t hesitate to taste them, you will surely meet some great people.
