How can we improve the « throat hit » feeling?

Former smokers who start vaping will most certainly be looking for their old sensations, and especially the hit. The hit or throat hit is the contraction of the pharynx/larynx consecutive to inhalation.

Former smokers who start vaping will most certainly be looking for their old sensations, and especially the hit. The hit or throat hit is the contraction of the pharynx/larynx consecutive to inhalation. It is caused by the nicotine that can be found in tobacco products. The good news is that vaping enables you to recreate this hit.

Nicotine content

The first key element will be the nicotine content of your e-liquid. The higher the nicotine content, the easier it will be to feel the hit.

Vaping material

Apart from the nicotine content, the vaping material plays an important role. The higher the voltage, the more the coil will heat up. This will create a more important vapor cloud, which will be warmer, and that triggers the hit. Thus, if you use a more complex e-cig with voltage or power settings, you’ll be able to increase the hit.

PG

You can also rely on the propylene glycol (PG) content. It is an irritating product that is good for the hit, while on the contrary vegetable glycerin (VG) mitigate it. You should therefore favor high PG juices.

Flavors

Some flavors, such as mint or coffee encourage the hit feeling. Some vapers even manage to recreate the hit without any nicotine, but simply by using high-menthol concentrations.

Drippers

Finally, some vapers also use drippers. They are expert vapers who master vaping material and techniques. With this technique, you have more vapor, more heat and a better restitution of the flavors. A dripper is an atomizer with no tank and a homemade coil. This small combustion chamber either encourages flavors or vapor. As for the hit, it will be triggered by a warmer vapor. Dripper users even tend to reduce the nicotine content after experiencing an important hit.
