How Do You Choose the Right Imp Jar 50ml Shortfill?
A simple three step approach to picking the right Imp Jar 50ml shortfill, covering device compatibility, flavour family and nicotine strength.
The short answer
Choosing the right Imp Jar 50ml shortfill comes down to three things, your device, your preferred flavour family and your target nicotine strength. Get those three right and almost any flavour in the range will work well for you.
Browse the Imp Jar Originals range
50ml shortfills in disposable inspired flavours, ready to mix with a nic shot of your choice. UK made in Maidstone, Kent.
Step one, check your device
Every flavour in the Imp Jar Originals range is blended at 50% VG and 50% PG, so the whole range is built for pod kits, MTL tanks and starter devices with coil resistance above roughly 0.8 ohm. If you are coming from a disposable vape, this is the natural match.
Step two, pick a flavour family
If you are not sure where to start, think about what you enjoyed in a disposable vape before switching. Fans of fruity disposables tend to gravitate toward flavours like Banana Ice or Blue Razz Lemonade, while those who preferred a sharper, less sweet vape often lean toward Lemon and Lime or other citrus options.
Step three, decide on nicotine strength
Most vapers start with a single 18mg nic shot for a finished strength of around 3mg, which suits the majority of pod kit users comfortably. If you smoked heavily before switching, you might prefer to stay closer to the top of that range, while lighter smokers or those reducing intake may prefer half a shot or none at all.
| Background | Suggested starting point |
|---|---|
| Former heavy smoker | Full 18mg or 20mg nic shot |
| Former light or occasional smoker | Half an 18mg nic shot |
| Already reducing nicotine intake | No nic shot or a small fraction of one |
If you are entirely new to shortfills, it is worth reading our mixing guide before your first order so the process feels familiar from the start.
Common questions about choosing a shortfill
What if I am unsure which flavour I will like?
Starting with a 50ml bottle rather than 100ml limits how much you commit to a single flavour while you find your favourites.
Can I mix flavours together?
Some vapers do blend two shortfills in the same tank to create their own combinations, though results vary and it is worth trying small amounts first.
Does the right choice change if I am switching from cigarettes rather than disposables?
Ex-smokers often prefer flavours closer to tobacco or cream profiles initially, before exploring fruit or sweet options once they are settled into vaping.
