Brown Fire: Delicious blend of earthy tobacco and smoky caramel 
Affordable: Well-priced shortfill range 
Alternatively: Also available as a nic shot with nicotine included 

Caramel is one of the most widely beloved flavour accompaniments for tobacco e-liquids. The dark brown fiery sweetness of burnt sugar intertwines beautifully with the earthy notes of toasted tobacco, making it a popular favourite.

AISU by ZAP! is mostly known for mentholated fruits, so we were initially surprised to witness their foray into tobacco vaping, but our suspicions turned out to be unfounded. 

AISU have very confidently produced a successor to the classic RY4 blend – the Tokyo Series Rich Tobacco. This e-liquid introduces vapers to the marriage of tobacco and caramel, with a smoky profile that is enhanced by the sweet notes rather than becoming overwhelmed by them.

There is also 50/50 nic salt version available for MTL vapers who want to try this best caramel tobacco eliquid.

AISU’s Tokyo Series Rich Tobacco definitely gives everyone a chance to inhale the original brown sugar baccy brew from the best caramel tobacco e-juice in the UK.

Pros

  • Classic pairing of caramel and tobacco
  • Complimentary ZAP! Nic Salt Shot
  • Also available as a 10ml nic salt

Cons

  • Tricky to get high-VG version stronger than 3mg
  • Tobacco flavour slightly too gentle

Big Ol’ Bottle: 60ml bottle of 50/50 MTL vape juice 
Pick Your Nic: Available in 0mg, 3mg, 6mg and 12mg nicotine strengths
Brown Blend: Genius addition of coffee to classic tobacco / caramel pairing

Shortfills are e-liquids sold in large containers with no nicotine contents at the point of sale, a helpful workaround for TPD-enforced 10ml bottle size limits for pre-nicced e-liquids. Ordinarily, shortfills are aimed at sub-ohmers with a taste for fruits and puddings, but the MIST MTL Shortfills range sought to provide mouth-to-lung vapers with the same benefits that cloud chasers regularly receive.

Our Carabaco takes the classic mix of smooth tobacco and caramel but with a twist – black coffee! This makes Carabaco a chimera of delicious dark brown flavours that complement each other perfectly in an MTL-friendly 50/50 mix ratio.

Plus, it is available in nicotine strengths of 0mg, 3mg, 6mg, and 12mg. For high nic vapers, keep in mind that the 12mg version requires the addition of four free nic shots and should be left to brew overnight after you’ve added them.

Pros

  • Shortfill e-liquid for MTL vapers
  • Great range of nicotine strengths
  • Caramel, coffee, and tobacco flavours work brilliantly together

Cons

  • No 10ml version
  • 12mg version must be left to brew overnight after adding nic shots

MTL Mix: The 50/50 mix ratio is perfect for MTL vaping 
Simple Smoke: No extra sweeteners or additional flavours 
Getting Started: Perfect choice for a new vaper with a refillable kit

50 VG / 50 PG e-liquids are designed for use with MTL vape coils. With PG carrying rich flavour and the restricted VG ensuring a moderate degree of cloud production, it results in a vaping experience very similar to smoking cigarettes.

Doozy Fifty 50 Tobacco is a plain and simple tobacco vape for those seeking an authentic tobacco experience. Compared to our best overall choice, the MIST Originals range, Doozy’s flavour is noticeably muted in a way that cigarette purists will find comforting.

With no additional sweeteners added, and no fanciful flavour combinations, we recommend the Doozy Fifty 50 Tobacco, the best 50/50 tobacco e-liquid that allows lovelorn smokers to enjoy an old favourite without the well-known downsides.

Pros

  • Plain and simple tobacco e-liquid
  • 50/50 ratio is perfect for cigarette-style MTL vaping
  • Strengths as low as 3mg available

Cons

  • No-frills, too plain for some
  • No 50/50 shortfill available

Tobutti Frutti: Zesty blend of fruit and earthy tobacco 
Citrus City: Tart flavour adds a vibrancy to the flavour profile 
Smooth and Easy: Nic salts ensure a gentle puff without coughing 

My grandfather used to keep his rough and cheap tobacco fresh by tucking a little orange peel or a couple of berries into the pack. The moistened tobacco would take on a faintly fruity flavour that really enhanced the earthy taste and produced a delightfully aromatic aroma.

The Just Juice Tobacco Club range strays away from their fruity roots, but Lemon Nic Salt shows them dipping into their old skillset to grant a sweet citrus tang to the taste of dark tobacco, resulting in a sophisticated and zesty flavour that, against our initial expectations, provides a delightful all-day tobacco vape.

While fans of pure tobacco blends will find the fruity addition a bit strong to bear, those of you who are curious about moving towards fruity vapes but aren’t yet ready to let go of tobacco juice will find Lemon Nic Salt a perfect stepping stone.

Pros

  • Delightful blend of fruit and tobacco
  • Citrus adds a vibrant note to grounded undertones
  • Black bottle prevents sunlight damage

Cons

  • Sharpness of lemon may irritate pure tobacco fans
  • Slightly more of a fruit vape than a tobacco vape

Woodland Treat: Perfect blend of rich tobacco and creamy mixed nuts 
Spicy Smoke: Spices used to enhance the natural flavours 
Low Bro: 5mg available, great for those trying to eliminate nicotine 

Nuts have a naturally creamy flavour, and it was only a matter of time before an intrepid e-liquid manufacturer like Juice Sauz noticed the connection between cream and tobacco vapes and strode forth to offer a creamy tobacco e-juice with a more moderate level of sweetness.

When we tested SALT Gold Rush Nic Salt, we tasted a distinct rolling tobacco and nutty profile with mixed spices. This gives the tobacco nic salt vape juice a warmingly fiery taste which, while flavoursome, never strays into overwhelming sweetness.

We recommend the SALT Gold Rush Nic Salt as the best tobacco nic salt for the average smoker who’s interested in the new flavour spectrum but isn’t quite ready for sour strawberry bubblegum as their daily go-to juice.

Pros

  • Mixed nuts add a sumptuously creamy note
  • Good strength selection for those lowering their nicotine dosage
  • Addition of spices grants a sophisticated flavour

Cons

  • Rough tobacco flavour too strong for some
  • Slight cigar flavour, not for everyone’s taste buds

Velvety Vape: Creamy vanilla pairs elegantly with tobacco 
Breakfast of Champions: Breakfast granola to accompany your morning puff 
Smoking+: Flavour and satisfaction that traditional cigarettes can’t match 

For those who crave sweet but creamy tobacco over the sweet caramelised tobacco flavour profile of AISU, we found the perfect alternative – Yogi’s Vanilla Tobacco Granola Bar Nic Salt. 

As its name suggests, it marries the velvety taste of Madagascan vanilla pods with the smokey profile of tobacco leaves. But that’s not all. You also get hints of a granola bar. In our e-liquid taste test, we’ve tasted honey-baked rolled oats with a gentle vanilla profile ensconcing a lively tobacco base – the perfect combo for a truly sinful morning treat!  

Pros

  • The perfect tobacco morning vape mix
  • Silky vanilla adds luxurious note to tobacco liquids
  • Rich honey-oat granola base flavour

Cons

  • Heavy smokers may find granola & tobacco a bizarre blend
  • Could stand to be a little less sweet

Nostalgic Nic: Best tobacco flavour nic salt for menthol cigarette fans
Refresher: Cool minty ice cleanses the taste buds after each puff 
Down For DTL: Also available in the high-VG Nasty Modmate range 

Menthol cigarettes were once a staple of any tobacco counter but have been illegal in the UK since 2020 in compliance with Tobacco Products Directive regulations. So, hats off to Nasty Juice for introducing their Menthol Tobacco Nic Salt, part of their 50 VG / 50 PG Podmates range. 

When we tested this tobacco vape juice, we were pleasantly surprised that it doesn’t have excessive sweeteners Nasty are usually known for. Instead, the Menthol Tobacco Nic Salt perfectly captures the unique satisfaction of a menthol cigarette filter. 

It is refreshing and cool without any sweet mint taste to distract you from the dark tobacco hit but still manages to cleanse the palate to a neutral state after each puff.

Menthol Tobacco Nic Salt is also available to sub-ohm vapers through the Nasty Modmate range, made with 70 VG contents for cool cloud action.

Pros

  • Tastes just like traditional menthol cigarettes
  • Cleanses the palate and freshens your breath
  • Also available in a sub-ohm shortfill from the Modmates range

Cons

  • Menthol fruit fans unlikely to enjoy this e-liquid
  • No 5mg version available

FAQ 

Does Tobacco-Flavoured Vape Taste Like Cigarettes?

Tobacco-flavoured vapes provide the closest possible facsimile of the unmistakable cigarette taste. It isn’t a perfect replica, as combusted plant matter has a characteristically acrid flavour, yet it does successfully impart the toasted and earthy taste of tobacco due to the use of tobacco essences as a flavouring in many tobacco juices.

Those of you who used to smoke menthol cigarettes may prefer to peruse our selection of the best menthol vape juice options. 

Can Tobacco Vape Juice Help Me Quit Smoking Traditional Cigarettes?

Tobacco e-liquids can absolutely help you to stop smoking. In our experience as a long-standing vape retailer, most new vapers tend to start with tobacco e-liquids as the taste coupled with the nicotine contents will result in an entourage effect that satisfies your body’s desire for tobacco, which it associates with cigarette smoking.

If you’re reading this because you’re keen to get off cigarettes then be sure to check out our list of the best vapes to quit smoking, any of which will work excellently with tobacco e-liquids.

What Is the Best Ratio for Tobacco Vape Juice?

There isn’t a universal best ratio for tobacco e-liquids, as vaping is a very personalised movement, unlike the uniformity of cigarette smoking.

The ideal mix ratio for your tobacco e-liquid depends entirely on the resistance of the vape coils that your vape kit uses, with thicker tobacco liquid working better with low resistance coils and thinner tobacco e-liquid being more suited to higher ohmage ratings.

If any of this seems like gobbledygook, then don’t fret, just take a minute to peruse our ultimate guide to PG vs. VG for a quick and easy-to-digest primer on what makes up your tobacco e-liquid.

Need More Help? 

We hope you’ve found this list of our favourite tobacco e-liquids helpful. Chances are you’ve only recently quit smoking, and we wanted to make it clear that you in no way have to forget your love affair with the classic taste of tobacco; this is just a new relationship with the plant that’ll work far better for you.
