Virginia Tobacco

Flue-cured Virginia leaf, grown in the sandy plains around the Italian Alps and dried with heat in curing barns, which locks in its natural sugars and gives it that mellow, mildly sweet, golden character. Naturally extracted from the real leaf, with no artificial flavors, no sweeteners, and no synthetic nicotine.

50VG/50PG is smooth in MTL pods and low-wattage devices. 70VG/30PG has more VG for bigger vapor in sub-ohm setups. Salt nicotine comes in higher strengths and gives a smoother pull in pod devices. New to these numbers? VG (vegetable glycerin) and PG (propylene glycol) are the two liquids that make up every e-liquid, ours included. The ratio is just how much of each: more VG makes for thicker vapor and bigger clouds, more PG carries flavor and feels a little sharper.

Most people do best on the 50VG/50PG for an all-day vape. Pick 70VG/30PG if you use a sub-ohm device and want more vapor. Choose salt if you want a stronger, smoother hit in a pod. Still unsure? Take the Vape Quiz.

It’s the closest blend we make to a classic light cigarette, mellow and smooth, so it’s a natural starting point if you smoked golden or light tobacco and want something familiar.

Freebase (50VG/50PG and 70VG/30PG) comes in 0, 3, 6, 12, and 18 mg in a 60mL bottle. Salt nicotine comes in 20, 30, and 50 mg in a 30mL bottle.

An MTL pod or low-wattage device such as the Vaporesso XROS 5 Mini for the 50VG/50PG and salt. If you prefer more vapor, the 70VG/30PG suits a sub-ohm device.

No. Virginia is naturally extracted from real tobacco leaf, with no artificial flavors, no added sweeteners, and no synthetic nicotine. No sweeteners also means less coil gunk.

We cold-macerate real tobacco leaf to naturally extract its flavor, rather than mixing synthetic tobacco flavoring. That’s what gives every Black Note blend, Virginia included, a true tobacco taste with no artificial additives.

Gold Leaf pods are being withdrawn from the US. Virginia is bottled, naturally extracted e-liquid, mellow and mildly sweet. It needs a refillable pod device such as the Vaporesso XROS 6 Mini, sold separately. In a pod, 20 mg salt is the usual start. More in our Gold Leaf guide.

Virginia Tobacco is mildly sweet from the leaf itself, not from candy-style flavoring. Expect tobacco first.

Yes. Virginia Tobacco is a bottled e-liquid, so it goes in a refillable pod system or tank instead of a sealed disposable. You buy the device once and refill it, rather than replacing the whole vape each time it runs dry.

A refillable pod system and a bottle of e-liquid such as Virginia Tobacco. Pod systems are small and draw like a disposable, so the feel is familiar. Browse our Pod Systems section, or take the Vape Quiz and we’ll point you to a match.

Check the strength printed on your disposable’s box. Many list 5% (50 mg/ml) nicotine salt. Virginia Tobacco Salt Nicotine comes in 2% (20 mg/ml), 3% (30 mg/ml) and 5% (50 mg/ml), so you can match what you’re used to.

Most disposables lean on fruit and candy flavors. Virginia Tobacco is naturally extracted from real tobacco leaf, with no synthetic flavorings, so it tastes like tobacco, not dessert.

Virginia Tobacco works in any refillable (open) pod system or tank. It won’t work in sealed, pre-filled pods or disposables, because those can’t be refilled.
