I Tried Peeky Pod Bar Salts for 30 Days – Here's My Honest Review

I'll be straight with you. When I first heard about Peeky Pod Bar Salts, I was sceptical. Another nic salt brand? Another bunch of flavours claiming to be "premium"? I've been let down before. But the 60PG/40VG ratio caught my attention – that's unusual for nic salts – and at £2.99 a bottle from How To Vape, it was cheap enough to take a risk.

That risk turned into a 30-day experiment. I vaped Peeky Pod Bar Salts exclusively for a month – different flavours, different devices, different times of day. I wanted to know: does the 60PG formula actually deliver a better throat hit? Are the flavours as good as they sound? And what's the deal with Iron Bruce, the flavour everyone keeps talking about?

Here's everything I learned.

Week 1: First Impressions and the 60PG Difference

My first bottle was Blueberry Sour Raspberry in 20mg. I filled my trusty OXVA Xlim (1.0 ohm pod, as recommended for high PG) and waited the obligatory 10 minutes for the coil to saturate. First puff? Whoa. The throat hit was noticeably stronger than the 50/50 nic salts I'm used to. Not harsh – just... present. Like a cigarette, but smoother.

The flavour was intense too. The sour raspberry hit immediately, then the sweet blueberry came through on the exhale. I could actually taste the transition from sour to sweet, which doesn't always happen with lesser liquids. By the end of day one, I was impressed.

I also noticed the vapour production was lighter – exactly as expected with 40% VG. For me, that's a plus. I vape at my desk, and huge clouds aren't practical. Peeky is discreet.

Week 2: Exploring the Flavours

By week two, I'd ordered five more bottles from How To Vape – might as well take advantage of that £2.99 price. Here's what I thought:

Triple Melonade (8/10): Really refreshing. Tastes like a mix of watermelon, honeydew, and something else – maybe cantaloupe? There's a slight fizz on the exhale that makes it feel like melon soda. Good summer vape.

Peach Ice (8.5/10): The peach is authentic – like biting into a ripe peach, not a candy. The ice is present but not overpowering. I found myself reaching for this in the afternoons.

Gummy Bear (9/10): This is dangerous. It tastes exactly like those little gummy bears. Different puffs taste like different colours – one minute lemon, the next strawberry. I finished this bottle faster than any other.

Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava (9/10): The most complex flavour. You get the kiwi first, then passionfruit's tang, then guava smoothing everything out. Best enjoyed in the evening when you can actually pay attention to what you're tasting.

Iron Bruce (9.5/10): Okay, now I get the hype. I'm not Scottish, so I don't have the nostalgia factor, but this is genuinely unique. It's orange, but not like orange candy – it's fizzy, slightly tangy, and has this indescribable something that makes it different. I can see why it's a cult favourite.

Week 3: Testing the 60PG in Different Devices

I wanted to see how Peeky performed in devices other than my OXVA. I tried:

  • Vaporesso XROS 3 (1.0 ohm pod): Slightly better flavour than the OXVA. The 60PG really shines here – every note was crystal clear.
  • Uwell Caliburn G3 (1.0 ohm pod): Very cigarette-like draw. The throat hit was strongest with this combo – ideal if you're quitting smoking.
  • Voopoo Argus Pod (0.8 ohm pod): This was too loose. The flavour was still there, but the experience wasn't as satisfying. Stick to 1.0 ohm or higher.

Coil life: With Peeky's 60PG formula, I got 12-14 days per coil – slightly better than my usual 10-12 days with 50/50 liquids. The thinner liquid seems to gunk coils less.

Week 4: The Money Question – How Much Did I Spend?

In 30 days, I used 8 bottles of Peeky (moderate-heavy vaper). At £2.99 each from How To Vape, that's £23.92.

If I'd been using disposables (1 every 2 days, 15 total), that would be £89.85. If I'd been using standard nic salts at £4.99 each, that would be £39.92.

Total saved vs disposables: £65.93 in one month. That's £791.16 a year. Enough for a new vape device, a year's worth of coils, and still money left over.

What I Loved

  • Throat hit: The 60PG delivers exactly what ex-smokers need – satisfying, cigarette-like, but smooth.
  • Flavour intensity: Every flavour is bold and clear. No muting, no artificial taste.
  • Iron Bruce: Worth the hype. A genuinely unique flavour.
  • Price: £2.99 is unbeatable for UK-made quality.
  • Coil life: Better than expected – 2 weeks average.

What I Didn't Love

  • Limited vapour: If you're a cloud chaser, this isn't for you. But that's not what Peeky is for.
  • Device matching: You need the right device (1.0 ohm+). In a sub-ohm pod, it's disappointing.
  • Minty Menthol: Too plain. Skip it and get a fruit+ice flavour instead.

Final Thoughts

After 30 days, Peeky Pod Bar Salts have earned a permanent spot in my rotation. The 60PG formula is genuinely different – it delivers a throat hit and flavour intensity that 50/50 liquids can't match. The flavour range is solid, with Iron Bruce as a standout. And at £2.99 from How To Vape, the value is insane.

If you're an ex-smoker looking for that cigarette-like satisfaction, or a flavour chaser who wants maximum intensity, give Peeky a try. Start with Blueberry Sour Raspberry or Gummy Bear, and definitely grab a bottle of Iron Bruce – even if just for the experience.
