Tribute - A New Old Tobacco Range From Manabush
This is a tobacco-based tribute to our roots by delving back into our past foray into our original Nokomis UK tobacco e-liquid range. Often considered one of the best and most widely known tobacco-based e-liquid ranges in the UK, including the famous Powwow Sauce, it is now updated by using some of the newer flavour technologies available to us. Some new, updated, remixed versions of our Tobacco E-liquid classic vape juice are also available.
All are available as 100ml Shortfills, 50ml Shortfills for 3mg Vapers (making 60ml in total), 40ml Shortfills for 6mg vapers (making 60ml in total) and 20ml Shortfills for 12mg Vapers (making 60ml in total) - The 12mg version comes with the required nic shots to make it up to total capacity free of charge. The 3mg and 6mg Require a Nic Shot (sold separately).
The Tribute Range A UK Tobacco Shortfill Range
Created as a Tribute to our historical and highly loved Nokomis Range of UK Tobacco E-liquid.
Using more modern flavour technologies than were available to us 9 years ago when we first started dabbling the the base that would become "Nokomis" - the Tribute range is - well its a Tribute and an advancement to that deep sweet Nokomis Tobacco.
The Original Nokomis Range was created back close to the start of the UK Electronic Cigarette revolution. The Tribute Range takes that flavour profile and deepens it and brings it bang up to date.
What are Shortfills
Shortfills are larger bottles of Zero mg (non nicotine containing) e-liquid supplied with enough space in the bottle to add a 10ml “Nic-shot” or your own DIY additions.
Typically they are 50ml of liquid in a 60ml bottle - but may also come in other forms - such as our own 20ml of liquid in a 30ml bottle (ideal for 6mg vapers) or 10ml of liquid in a 30ml bottle (ideal for 12mg vapers).
The short filling of the bottle is what gives the “Shortfill” its name.
Shortfills came about as a result of the TPD (Tobacco Products Directive) - which restricted Nicotine containing liquid bottles maximum size too 10ml.
This had the potential for large price rises on Nicotine containing liquids - as the customer would have to buy multiple 10ml bottles instead of their usual larger bottle.
The Shortfill bottles. themselves do not contain any nicotine and can therefore legally be sold in any size bottle - ready fo the user to add their own nicotine via the use of various Nicshots.
What are Nicshots - or Nic-shots
A Nicshot (or Nicotine shot or Nic-Shot) is a 10ml bottle of (normally) un-flavoured Nicotine at various strengths suspended in Propylene Glycol and Vegetable Glycerine
They are used to add Nicotine to Shortfills (Zero Nicotine flavoured eliquid in a larger bottle) - and as an example the combination of Nicshots and 50ml Shortfills is generally a less expensive method than buying 5 x 10ml Flavoured E-Liquid, not to mention and very importantly these days providing much less plastic waste - especially as larger bottles can be re-used, while 10ml bottles are too small and simply end up discarded and presumably in landfill.
How Nicotine Shots work in the Nokomis Shortfills
The Nokomis Range of Shortfills are designed to be used with the 18mg version of the same flavour - so for example : 1 x 50ml bottle of Powwow Sauce has enough room for 1 x 18mg bottle Powwow Sauce, this method will retain the full flavour of the original 10ml Eliquid.
However - some people prefer to use a standard unflavoured Nicshot instead of the 18mg version of the juice - and this is fine! Just understand that using an unflavoured nic-shot in the Nokomis Range will result in a very slight loss of flavour - but then the range is fairly strongly flavoured anyway.
