Where does throat hit really come from?

I've heard PG has a stronger hit than VG, and I heard it's solely relative to nic-MG. From my own experiences, I've bought many juices from different vendors with various bases and nic concentrations, and the TH was always relative to the specific juice, not concentration. Most recently, I bought a bottle of 100% PG Tobacco at 18mg from American e-liquid, and it literally has no throat hit. It tastes nice, but it's hard for me to vape a juice without at least a medium hit. I thought I was going to get knocked over with the 100% PG...but I guess I was wrong. So.......really, where does it come from?

I'm leaning more towards that comment about nic-mg. I find it impossible to th with 0mg juices.

Lots of factors. PG or VG, or what blend. Nicotine level. Some flavorings add to the hit, some don't. And the gear you're using matters too- hotter vapor, or more vapor per second, increases the hit. Atty and carto design plays a role- how close is the coil to your mouth?

And with all these factors, it varies.

I usually get more TH with PG, but got some juice from innovapor that's 100% VG, killer TH.

Just gotta try'em.

Add a few drops of pure alcohol to it. Really few. I also tried with whiskey. It worked. (I am not very concerned about health issues
