What does 'Throat hit' mean to you?

[mare ze dotes]

Just a fun question. To me Throat hit means like when I get no vape and it feels like I am sucking dry oven air through a straw. That hits my throat! I guess, I dont like a good throat hit unless that means none at all.

I understand that it is a subjective term, that is why I am asking. What does throat hit, good or bad, mean to you?

I hate throat hit. To me it means heartburn.

Throat hit to most people refers to the traditional sensation of cigarette smoke hitting the back of the throat/palate, and the desire to experience 'similar' with an ecigarette.

Myself, I don't care for throat hit, and most PG juices bother my throat beyond a point of comfort. I go with 100% VG and all-organic juice as much for the lack of throat hit as I do for the lack of PG

Edit: Though, in spite of the above -- I do quite like Tribeca by Halo. Its got a fair amount of throat hit -- but its quite pleasant. Its the only PG-containing juice still in my collection

There's different levels of throat hit..it depends on the nicmg, juice and sometimes the levels of PV/PG.
If you get a juice with a med-high nicmg and have a 50/50PV/PG level..it's probably the smoothest throat hit. I guess it varies for everyone. I particularly love the TH. A bad throat hit to me is where it ends up leaving your throat scratchy..that sucks. With me it just depends on the juice/vendors I get.

I personally need throat hit not a real harsh pow punch in the throat but just the slightest burn in the back of your throat. That with great flavor and volumes of volumes of beautiful thick fragrant vapor does it for me.

Best TH and taste, to me, is achieved with an 80/20 PG/VG mix. I NEED a GOOD TH. It, to me, is the nicotine hitting the back of the throat.

i think a good throat hit is a must thats how i know im getting all the goodness in my system. Flavor is nice but it the hit that makes it feel like your really smoking

Must be Avoided.

Not a fan of throat hit! I like cool, smooth vapes. I do however enjoy a good lung hit now and then, where you feel the flavor/vapor expanding into your lungs. I get it with some mints (not all) and it's like the first breath when you step outside on a crisp clear winter morning. Reminds me how nice it is to breathe
