Which Coils Give the Best Flavour?

Choosing the right replacement coil can make a noticeable difference to your vaping experience. Even the best e-liquid won't taste its best if your coil isn't designed to deliver consistent flavour. 

If you're looking for the best flavour, mesh coils are generally the top choice. Compared to traditional round wire coils, mesh coils heat e-liquid more evenly, creating richer flavour, smoother vapour and a longer-lasting vaping experience.
