Best High PG E Juices of 2022: Reviews of PG E-Liquids
PG stands for propylene glycol, and it is one of the main ingredients in modern-day e-juices. It is an odorless, colorless liquid that is commonly found in many everyday items like cosmetics, medicines, and even food products.
The liquid has a watery consistency, because of this it carries flavorings and liquid nicotine better than its opposite, vegetable glycerin. Vapers who want a vaping experience similar to smoking, prefer high-PG e-juices for these reasons. High PG e-liquids also have the advantage of being less damaging to vaping gear like coils and vape tanks.

The VaporFi Caramel Latte Salt e-liquid is a unique blend of flavors that builds on the potency of nicotine salts but has a smooth and silky texture. The e-juice has a pick-me-up feel from the first inhale with its robust coffee notes. The soothing, milky middle taste sells it, and the aftertaste combines the two for a satisfying exhale.
Pros:
The soothing, warming sensation from taking the first inhale feels like taking your first sip of the morning on a cold winter day
A dessert, coffee, and milk combination that hits the spot on every level; sweet, creamy, comforting
The single VG/PG ratio is perfect for MTL vapers who use refillable pods or AIOs
Cons:
No other VG/PG options, so sub-ohm vapers cannot enjoy it
The Strawberry Nic Salt by The Graham is a two-note e-juice with flavors taken from fresh strawberries, graham crackers, and a combination of the two in a cracker, cookie, or dessert. The e-juice is topped with a fresh dollop of strawberry cream that tastes delicious from the first inhale. The e-juice begins with the strawberry flavor but has a thin crust of graham at the bottom that gives it an unmistakable finish.
Pros:
The nicotine salts e-juice is best used with a high-resistance device like a pod or AIO with an MTL coil
The flavor profiles are well-defined and do not fade or become flavorless after vaping the e-juice for a long time
The flavors do not feel artificial or fake but are full of texture and nuance
Cons:
The e-juice needs to seep a little longer than usual to get the full flavor of the e-juice
Flavorless e-juice is the perfect option for people who enjoy vaping purely for the sensation and not the nicotine or flavor of vape juice. Depending on your preference, this option comes in several VG/PG options and is also available with nicotine. If you choose a higher VG e-juice, there will be a slight sweetness since vegetable glycerin has a naturally sweet taste. But the other options are flavorless. You could also use this e-juice as the base for your own concoction by adding flavor shots or concentrates.
Pros:
No-flavor e-juice is perfect for people who do not want any nicotine or flavorings, who want to enjoy the simple pleasures of vaping
It is hard to find flavorless e-juice, and there are no, if any, flavorless disposable options available. So a product that is readily available for the high amount of vapers who want flavorless e-juice is welcome
The purity of the e-juice comes out in each vape; the fact that it was made with high-quality ingredients and “tastes” better than most flavored e-juice says a lot about its quality
A great way to take a break from flavors and cleanse the palate
The Menthol e-juice from Central Vapors is an exercise in simplicity since it only features menthol flavor and nothing else. The Menthol in this e-juice comes from the synthetic versions of mint, but even still, it has a robust taste and aroma that needs no other notes or flavor profiles. This e-juice comes as a high PG version, so it emphasizes the flavor over cloud production and is perfect for use with pods, AIOs, or other refillable vape pens with high-resistance coils.
Pros:
The clean, crisp menthol flavor is refreshing since there are so many artificial flavors that feel cheap and over-processed, and overpowering
The fact that there are many different VG/PG ratios, but with more high PG options available means that this e-juice works well with pods, AIOs, and other MTL-specific vapes
It’s a good option for people who want to quit smoking and want to have something similar to menthol cigarettes
Cons:
The flavor does feel a little artificial, even though it is still more refreshing than other menthol e-juices
So what does the PG mean in vape juice? PG stands for propylene glycerol and that can be found in a variety of food, medical, and even pharmaceutical products. Whereas VG (vegetable glycerin) e-liquid has a thick and oil-like consistency, PG vape juices are much less viscous and closely resembles water. Because of this watery consistency PG e-liquid is easier for the atomizer to work with, resulting in a stronger throat hit. VG vape juice is much denser and will produce a lot more vapor at the cost of flavor clarity.
Both forms of vape juice have their advantages and disadvantages, so there are many blends available that utilize a specific ratio of PG to VG. A blend that is mostly PG will be more flavorful, deliver a smooth throat hit, and still produce an impressive amount of vapor.
It is up to personal preference as to which of these e-liquids are superior, but PG has quite a few advantages over its VG counterpart.
The Pick of the Litter
All these high PG e-juices have something unique to offer (cucumber, anyone?). They also all please in different ways. From the robust coffee-flavor of Double Espresso to the refreshing sunniness of God Nectar, these e-juices all deserve their place here. But there is one that has won over almost everyone here at Vaping Daily.
It should come as no surprise (well, maybe a little surprise) that Cucumber is the favorite from among the competition. It has a single flavor profile that is hard to define, but that is what is so appealing about it, the mystery. The Cucumber e-juice does not taste just like cucumber, but leaves it to the imagination, which is, coupled with the fact that it gives a nice throat hit, and is so refreshing, makes it a winner.
