Nasty Burst Nic Salt is a 30ml nicotine salt e-liquid line built around bold fruit and ice flavour combinations. Priced at KSh 2,000 at Vapesoko, it is formulated for mouth-to-lung (MTL) pod kits and comes in two nicotine strengths: 35mg and 50mg. If you enjoy punchy, fruit-forward vapes with a cooling finish and you use a low-power pod device, this review covers what you need to know before ordering.
What Is Nasty Burst Nic Salt?
Nasty Burst is part of the Nasty Juice line-up, a well-known international e-liquid brand with a reputation for vivid flavour profiles. The Burst range uses nicotine salts rather than freebase nicotine. Nicotine salts generally deliver a smoother throat feel at higher concentrations compared to equivalent freebase strengths, which tends to make them a popular choice among vapers who prefer strong nicotine delivery without harshness.
The range uses a 50/50 VG/PG ratio, which is well matched to low-power pod kits and MTL devices. The balanced ratio tends to wick efficiently in smaller coils and produces a tighter, more restrained vapour output compared to high-VG freebase liquids. It is a practical pairing for compact, portable devices.
Flavour Profile: Fruit and Ice
The Burst range leans heavily into intense fruit flavours, often paired with a cooling or icy finish. Expect vivid, punchy profiles rather than subtle, layered ones. The fruit flavours tend to be bold and forward, hitting immediately on the inhale, while the ice element adds a crisp edge to the exhale. If you enjoy sharp, fruity vapes with a menthol undertone, this range is worth trying.
The "Burst" name is fitting: these liquids are designed to deliver concentrated flavour impact in a small 30ml format. The fruit and ice combination is popular for a reason, as it tends to stay fresh and engaging over extended use without becoming cloying.
Nicotine Strengths
Vapesoko stocks Nasty Burst Nic Salt in two strengths:
- 35mg
- 50mg
Both strengths use nicotine salts. Select the strength based on your current vaping preferences. We stock both options so you can choose what works for you.
Pairing with Hardware
With a 50/50 VG/PG ratio and nicotine salt formulation, Nasty Burst is designed for MTL pod kits and low-wattage devices. It pairs well with refillable pod systems such as the UWELL Caliburn G5 Lite SE (KSh 5,000, 1600mAh, 35W) and the UWELL Caliburn G4 Pro (KSh 5,500, 1800mAh, 35W). Both of these kits operate at or below 35W, which is within the range where nicotine salts generally perform well.
This liquid is generally not suitable for sub-ohm tanks or high-wattage devices. Using high-concentration nicotine salts in a sub-ohm setup may result in an unpleasantly strong nicotine hit and excessive throat irritation. Stick to pod kits and MTL devices for the intended experience.
If you already own a sealed disposable and want to explore refillable options alongside it, pairing a UWELL Caliburn kit with Nasty Burst gives you a reusable setup at a reasonable ongoing cost. A 30ml bottle at KSh 2,000 will generally last longer than a single disposable, depending on your usage patterns.

How It Compares to Other Nicotine Salts at Vapesoko
Vapesoko carries several other nicotine salt options. Here is how Nasty Burst fits within the range:
- Ultimate Salts 30ml (KSh 2,000): Same price and bottle size, but available in 50mg only. If you want the option of a 35mg strength, Nasty Burst is the more flexible choice between the two.
- ELFLIQ 10ml (KSh 800): A smaller bottle at a lower price, available in 10mg and 20mg. Suitable if you prefer lower nicotine concentrations or want to sample a flavour without committing to a full 30ml bottle.
- BAR Salts 10ml (KSh 700): The most affordable nicotine salt option we stock, available in 20mg only. A good entry point for trying new flavours at minimal cost.
For vapers who use sub-ohm tanks and prefer freebase nicotine, consider Ultimate Puff 120ml (KSh 2,500, 70/30 VG/PG, available in 3mg to 18mg) or Ultimate Juice 120ml (KSh 2,300, 70/30 VG/PG, available in 3mg to 12mg) instead. These are formulated for higher-powered devices.
Flavour Profiles Worth Knowing
The Burst range focuses on fruit and ice, but within that category the individual flavours each bring something distinct. The fruit notes tend to be concentrated and forward, hitting as soon as you inhale. The ice component varies across the range, with some flavours carrying a sharp menthol finish and others landing on a subtler coolness.
What sets Nasty Burst apart from other fruit-ice salt ranges is the intensity. These are not gentle, layered flavours that reveal themselves slowly. They deliver full, immediate impact from the first draw. The "Burst" name is literal: the flavour arrives all at once, which makes these liquids satisfying for short, intermittent sessions where you want each puff to count.
The ice element also serves a practical purpose. Cooling finishes tend to keep the palate fresh, reducing the flavour fatigue that can set in with purely sweet liquids. If you vape the same flavour all day, an ice component helps it stay engaging rather than becoming background noise.
More Devices That Pair Well
Beyond the Caliburn models already mentioned, several other MTL pod kits in the Vapesoko range work well with Nasty Burst's 50/50 VG/PG ratio:
- Caliburn A3 (KSh 4,000): The most compact Caliburn option. Its tight MTL draw pairs naturally with 35mg or 50mg salt liquid. A good pick for vapers who want something truly pocketable.
- SMOK Novo 5 (KSh 4,000): Draw-activated and buttonless. The 30W output handles Nasty Burst well, and the lack of buttons makes it a straightforward daily carry.
- XROS 5 (KSh 4,000): Adjustable airflow gives you control over how tight or loose the draw feels. Useful for fine-tuning how the fruit and ice notes come through.
- Sonder Q2 (KSh 4,000): Reliable and budget-conscious. A solid MTL device that handles 50/50 salt liquids cleanly.
Any MTL-style pod kit running under 20W will handle Nasty Burst well. Avoid sub-ohm devices, where the high nicotine concentration becomes overwhelming.
Nasty Burst, Nasty Salts and Other Salt Ranges: Flavour Differences
Price-wise, the 30ml salt ranges at Vapesoko sit at the same KSh 2,000 mark, so the choice between them comes down to flavour and strength preferences.
Nasty Burst vs Nasty Salts: Both come from the same brand. The Burst range emphasises intense, concentrated fruit-ice profiles. Nasty Salts offers a broader flavour spectrum that includes tropical, dessert and tobacco-inspired options alongside fruit. If you specifically want fruit and ice, Burst is the focused choice. If you want more variety within one brand, Nasty Salts has it.
Nasty Burst vs Ultimate Salts: The difference is flavour philosophy. Nasty Burst favours bold, immediate impact with fruit-ice combinations. Ultimate Salts covers a wider range of profiles, including candy and chilled options from the Ultimate Puff family. Nasty Burst is available in 35mg and 50mg, while Ultimate Salts is 50mg only. If you want the option of a slightly lower strength, Nasty Burst's 35mg fills that gap.
Nasty Burst vs ELFLIQ: ELFLIQ comes in 10ml bottles at lower nicotine concentrations (10mg and 20mg). It suits vapers who prefer gentler nicotine delivery or who want to sample flavours at lower cost per bottle. For daily use at 35mg or 50mg, Nasty Burst's 30ml bottle delivers better value per millilitre. ELFLIQ's advantage is the smaller commitment if you want to try something before buying 30ml of it.
Who Nasty Burst Suits
This range is for vapers who know they want bold fruit-ice flavours and do not want to pay more per millilitre than they need to. If you use a pod kit daily, vape at 35mg or 50mg, and enjoy sharp, cooling fruit profiles, Nasty Burst delivers consistently at a competitive price.
It is also a practical next step for vapers moving away from fruit-ice disposables. The flavour intensity is comparable to what you get from a disposable, and the 30ml bottle lasts far longer. Pair it with an affordable pod kit and the switch pays for itself quickly.
If you prefer subtler, non-icy flavours, or if you want lower nicotine strengths, other ranges in the Vapesoko catalogue will suit you better. Browse the top vape flavours in Kenya for ideas on what other vapers are choosing.
