What Are The Best Shortfill E-liquids To Buy In 2024?
Bigger bottles of your favourite blends.Shortfill e-liquids provide vapers with an underfilled bottle of e-liquid that a nicotine booster shot can be added to. For example, a 60ml shortfill e-liquid would contain 50ml of 0mg e-liquid, to which you could add a 10ml, 18mg nicotine shot. When mixed you would have 60ml of 3mg e-liquid. These bigger bottles have become some of the most popular e-liquid we stock.
When the TPD (Tobacco Products Directive) came into effect on May 2017, among other things such as capping tank sizes, it prohibited the sale of e-liquids containing nicotine in bottles larger than 10ml. This, in turn, led to the creation of shortfill e-liquids, which have become very popular over the last few years. Many e-liquid manufacturers, both in the UK and abroad have chosen to release their ranges in this particular format.
We've put together our top ten shortfill e-liquids guide to help make picking that little bit easier. The majority of these e-liquids feature a 70% VG concentration which means they perform best in a sub ohm vape kit, available as either 50ml or 100ml variants. You'll find a range of flavours with everything from fruit to candy and even menthol. All at different prices to suit every budget.
Top Ten Shortfills To Buy In The UK
Blue Razz Berry by Seriously Fruity combines the flavours of juicy raspberry and ripe blueberries. The sweet and sharp notes make this a balanced vape. The large 100ml bottle provides a convenient option for anyone looking for long-lasting e-liquid - and if you add two nicotine shots, the final size will be 120ml. Seriously Fruity specialise in fruit blends (if you couldn't tell from the name!) so, while this is the customer favourite from the range, be sure to check out the full Seriously Fruity range if you're a lover of fruit vapes.
Our first dessert vape on the list, we thought we’d kick things off with a real classic. Crispy Coffee e-liquid by Large Juice takes the old favourite – coffee and doughnut, giving it a rich twist with a combination of caramel and cream. Part of the 50 Large range, each 50ml shortfill comes with a 10ml, 18mg nic shot giving you everything you need to make 60ml of 3mg e-liquid all in the same box. If you’re in the market for premium fruit, dessert, menthol, soda and candy blends make sure you check out the full Large Juice collection.
Heisenberg is easily one of the most imitated flavours in vaping, and although many have tried, in our opinion no-one has ever topped the Vampire Vape original. This popular flavour blends mixed berries with menthol, aniseed and a secret ingredient - while this sounds simple, this blend is anything but. It's complex and layered and well-balanced, which makes it an ideal all-day vape. The 100ml bottle size leaves room to add up to two nicotine shots if you prefer a vape that contains nicotine, but it can also be vaped as-is if you like a nicotine-free option.
As far as flavour goes, Mango, Strawberry & Pineapple by Summer Love does exactly as it says on the tin (or bottle!), thanks to its sweet mix of mango, tangy pineapple and juicy strawberry notes, you’ll taste a hint of summer in every puff. Sub ohm vapers will be glad to know it boasts a 70% VG concentration that allows for a large amount of vapour. If you’re looking for a blend that’ll see you through the season (we’ll stop with the puns now) stock up using our 3 for £15 multi-buy offer.
Soda blends remain a staple in most vaper’s cabinet, with Grape Drank representing a rich flavour mimicking the popular American grape soda drink. A bittersweet grape is ever-present throughout, combined with a sweet yet fizzy soda for an authentic taste. What’s more, this shortfill is available in a 50ml bottle or a 100ml bottle so you can decide what works best.
This e-liquid is a pure dessert flavour - no fruit, ices or menthols here! Ideal for lovers of all things creamy, Butterscotch Custard blends the sweet flavour of butterscotch with the familiar taste of vanilla custard. The large 100ml bottle will hold up to two nicotine shots for a final blend that's up to 3mg nicotine strength. The rest of the Future Juice range features a wide variety of fruity, dessert and sweets flavours so there's something for everyone.
If you're a fan of blends that contrast sweet and sharp notes, then Boulevard shortfill e-liquid by Wick Liquor should hit the spot. This bold fusion of fruit flavours complements the juicy taste of fruit punch with the tart notes of Malibu loganberry pulp. The tangier notes do a good job of balancing the sweetness, delivering a layered vape overall. This e-liquid is blended to an 80% VG concentration, so it'll create even larger clouds than other shortfills and will work best with sub ohm vape kits. If you fancy a bit of ice added into the mix, why not try Boulevard Shattered?
This shortfill e-liquid blends the flavours of crisp Pink Lady apples, juicy pear and floral elderflower for a flavour profile that's complex and unique. It's an ideal choice for vapers looking for something a little different or for something that's not as sweet as other entries on this list. The Wild Roots range showcases unique and exotic notes in every blend.
If you’re after a simple dessert blend, this fruit and milk fusion from Big Bold Creamy will be sure to hit the spot. A sweet-tasting banana brings a distinct flavour that’s merged with rich notes of cream, providing a luxurious vape from inhale – Banana Milk certainly lives up to its name. This 100ml shortfill can be turned into 120ml of 3mg e-liquid by adding two 18mg nic shots into its bottle. Banana Milk’s 70% VG blend is ideal for a DTL inhale, as it’ll produce large clouds of vapour.
Capping off this list, we have a fruity fusion that combines sweet and tart notes with a fizzy finish. Cherry Strawberry Fizz shortfill e-liquid by Fizzle Drips pairs the dark, tangy taste of freshly-picked cherries with the sweetness of juicy-tasting garden strawberries, before fizzing things up with sparkling soda on the exhale. As a 100ml shortfill, there is 20ml of extra space in the bottle for you to add two nic shots. Its 70% VG concentration means it's compatible with sub ohm vape kits.
