7 Best Bar Salts in 2024 (UK Market)

With disposables soon to be banned in the UK and to meet the flavour demands of disposable vape users, many e-liquid brands have launched their own range of bar salts. But much like other types of e-liquids, not every bar salt is going to be the best bar salt! Some might be too sweet, while others have a muted, disappointing flavour.

To help you navigate the expanding world of bar salts, we will showcase some of our favourite choices, and you’ll soon see why so many of the best vape juice options are bar salts.

The Best Bar Salt Overall is: MIST Bar Salts Fresh Banana Ice 

Selecting a winner among the best bar salts isn’t easy, but Fresh Banana Ice’s combination of mellow and refreshingly cool fruity flavour, paired with an unmatched number of nic salt strength choices, puts it head and shoulders over the bar salts competition.

The Best Bar Salts Are:

  1. MIST Bar Salt Fresh Banana Ice
  2. Nasty Liq Mineral Water
  3. Cuttwood Bar Salts Tobacco Train
  4. ELFLIQ Strawberry Snoow (Strawberry Ice Cream)
  5. Vampire Vape Bar Salts Grape
  6. IVG 6000 Cherry Chew
  7. MIST Bar Salt Arctic Xtreme

Banananana

Balance between natural and candy banana tastes 

Pick Nic

Four nicotine strengths to choose from

Glacial Balance

Restrained ice doesn’t impact the flavour profile

Fresh Banana Ice, part of the new MIST Bar Salts range of nicotine salt e-liquids, delivers an unforgettable and unique taste profile that most MTL vapers will adore.

Mellow, creamy slices of freshly peeled banana are layered over a cooling bath of ice. The cold tones elevate the fruity flavour while also providing a welcome palate cleanse, making each inhale as refreshing as it is fruity.

Even better, Fresh Banana Ice offers a wide range of nicotine strength options, far more so than other bar salts e-liquids. 3mg, 6mg, 12mg, and 18mg options are available to suit any nicotine relief requirement. 

Pros

  • Tasty mellow banana flavour 
  • Well-balanced ice addition
  • Numerous nicotine strengths

Cons

  • No 0% version yet 
  • The banana taste could be a bit punchier

Mountain Mew: Very familiar American soda flavour bar salts
Citrus Bliss: Zesty blend of orange, lemon and lime juices 
Frosty Can: Ice gives it that ‘chilled beverage’ sensation 

Now, this is something rather special. Nasty Juice is known for its super-sweet bar salts brewed in the Malaysian style, which encourages extra sweetness. So why would a company so familiar with tangy, zesty, strong flavours release a ‘mineral water’ flavour?

Well, here’s a hint: it’s not mineral water flavour. It tastes strikingly similar to a specific mixed-citrus American soda with a profile I won’t name here. But you can taste the lemons, limes, and oranges with a tasty beverage note enhanced by the well-balanced ice note.

Nastyliq Mineral Water is a memorable bar salts e-liquid that puts a flavour in your pod that you’d drink off a mountainside if you could dew.

Pros

  • Deliciously sweet citrus vape 
  • Cool and frosty ‘from the fridge’ throat hit
  • Suspiciously similar to a trendy US soft drink

Cons

  • Fruit flavours are a bit less distinct than usual for Nasty Juice 
  • The intense frost might put some fruity vape fans off

Tobacco Reborn: Unique blend of tobacco and creamy banana 
Gently Cool: The faintest hint of ice to elevate the flavours 
It’s Toasted: Fragrant and aromatic US tobacco aroma 

Tobacco e-liquid is blended with many other flavours, such as creams for a Cuban cigarillo note or menthol for that Newport refreshment. But leave it to the Americans to be so bold as to mix tobacco with banana notes for their bar salts.

Wait, don’t go! I was suspicious at first, but one good puff and I was a banana believer. The toasted and earthy tobacco note pairs perfectly with the sumptuous and creamy edge of banana pulp, with perhaps just a touch of coolness elevating the e-liquid flavours.

Tobacco Train by Cuttwood Bar Salts might seem like a weird combo, but trust me; one inhale on these bar salts and your taste-buds will realise that cigarettes can never replicate this kind of moreish tobacco taste.

Pros

  • The earthy and warming tobacco taste 
  • Sumptuously creamy banana flavour
  • Made in the USA

Cons

  • Some will be too cowardly to try such a unique bar juice 
  • The faint ice is a little unusual with a creamy tobacco flavour

OG Elf: Made by Elf Bar with genuine Elf Bar e-liquids 
Worlds Collide: A perfect mesh of thick creams and juicy fruit 
Ice Ice Baby: Very frosty for a perfect ice-cream profile  

I appreciate that ELFLIQ’s Strawberry Snoow is a bit of a strange name, but until very recently, this bar salt was called ‘Strawberry Ice Cream’, and that’s exactly the flavour you get.

Made by Elf Bar, the undisputed masters of the disposable vape world, the ELFLIQ range brings genuine Elf Bar bar juice from disposables to 10ml bottles. This allows you to enjoy this perfect marriage of ice-cold thick creams and juicy strawberry juices through your pod kits or vape tank.

Unlike many disposable pens, the ELFLIQ e-liquid range is available in two strengths, 10mg and 20mg, so you can reduce your nicotine intake while still enjoying a luscious dessert flavour.

Pros

  • Authentic Elf Bar flavour, ideal choice for disposable fans 
  • Delicious cream and fruit blend e-liquid
  • Perfectly balanced ice addition

Cons

  • Some may find it too sweet for session vaping 
  • There are only two strengths to choose from

OG: Vampire Vape were one of the original bar salts manufacturers 
Grape Expectations: Lusciously sugary and juicy grape flavour 
Smooth Juicy: Nicotine salts used for a smooth throat hit 

Few fruits are as lusciously sweet and exotic as ripe, juicy grapes, and Grape from Vampire Vape’s Bar Salts line perfectly conveys that simmering sweetness.

A mixture of red and green grapes is pressed for their decadently sugary juice, tastefully sweetened with extra sweeteners to capture that disposable vape-style plateau of flavour.

Vampire Vape proves that you don’t need unique flavour blends to stand out; a simple collection of juicy grapes is all it takes to produce a deliciously moreish bar salt vape juice.

Pros

  • Made by Vampire Vape 
  • Rich and delicious grape profile
  • Two nicotine-strength options to choose from

Cons

  • The simple flavour might bore some vapers 
  • It could use a touch of Malaysian sweetener

IVG is already well-renowned for its juicy 50/50 e-liquid range, and its forays into bar salts like Cherry Chew have been immensely well-received.

Cherry Chew was an interesting e-liquid because the name led me to anticipate a gummy cherry candy flavour. While the argument can be made for the flavour, I personally found it was closer to a sparkling cherryade flavour, as, in my opinion, the extra-sugars used to convey a candy taste felt more like a soda note to me.

Sweet, sugary and with just the right degree of cherry tartness and cooling ice for a refreshing puff, Cherry Chew is my personal favourite flavours of e-liquid from the IVG 6000 range of bar salts taste sensations.

Pros

  • Tangy cherry candy flavour e-liquid
  • Similar to cherry soda
  • Gentle ice for refreshment and prevention of lingering sugar

Cons

  • It could stand to be a little more sour 
  • It is a bit plain for some fans of fruit medleys

Pure Frost: Just cool ice with no sweetness 
Mega Menth: Powerful botanical menthol hit 
Helps You Quit: Four strengths to help you lower your intake 

Cool menthol bar salts provide just as much invigoration as nicotine satisfaction, and Arctic Xtreme from MIST Bar Salts provides an ample amount of both by ensuring no distracting sweet flavours.

While fruity and pudding bar juice fans may want to look elsewhere, those needing a cool all-day puff will find Arctic Xtreme’s no-fuss frostiness a hyperborean delight. The flavour is pure botanical menthol and cooling ice, with no excessive candy or sugary notes to get in the way of your refreshment.

And once again, the MIST Bar Salts range offers four distinct nic strengths to suit any vaper’s needs and requirements.

Pros

  • Cool and frosty refreshment 
  • No distracting sugars
  • There are many nic salt strengths to choose from

Cons

  • A lack of sweetness will put some vapers off 
  • It is a little too cold to vape during winter comfortably
