Both smokers and non-smokers could not remain unaware of one of the most popular novelties of recent years: the electronic cigarette. Thanks to its wide diffusion, many consumers have started to wonder even if there was a e cigarette liquid with THC.
Capable of attracting the attention and general consensus of consumers in a short time, the e-cigarette and its sale have grown visibily, although with a very short life history and a low use of advertising compared to its natural opposite (the classic cigarette).
For many nicotine users the e-cigarette it is completely irreplaceable and maybe it will be for the cannabis customers. Composed of an inhaler, an atomizer that serves to scale the e liquid inside and a battery for the atomizer, the electronic cigarette is a very versatile gadget.

What are THC e liquids?
THC (also known as delta 9) can be extracted from cannabis flowers, has several effects, including positive effects, which act on appetite or mood. But it is, at the same time, a psychotropic substance, therefore capable of artificially altering mental activity and this is why it is prohibited in many countries of the world.
