What are nicotine salts?
Nicotine salts are the "express lane" of nicotine. Unlike classic nicotine, which can feel like sandpaper on your throat, salts are smooth but hit your brain faster than bad news. They are the ultimate weapon for heavy smokers who want to quit without feeling like they’re swallowing razor blades.
Chemically, benzoic or salicylic acid is added to pure nicotine to lower its pH. This makes the molecule closer to its natural state in the tobacco plant, allowing for near-instant pulmonary absorption (in 10-20 seconds) and a much smoother passage through the throat.
