About Ultimate Puff and the Ultimate 5000 Salt Range
Ultimate Puff is one of the names that has been on UK vape shop shelves for as long as most customers can remember. The brand built its reputation on shortfill lines with a clear theme each, Chilled, Candy Drops, Soda, Cookies, Custard and Sherbet among them, and later bottled those same profiles as 10ml nicotine salts. The products are made in the UK and notified to the MHRA under the manufacturer, Ultimate Juice Limited, which is the paperwork behind every legal nicotine e-liquid sold here. Ultimate 5000 Salt is the newest arm of the family and sits alongside the other lines in our Ultimate Salts collection.
The 5000 in the name points at the disposable era this range answers. When 5000 puff bar devices were everywhere, their flavours became a shared vocabulary: Dr Blue, Blue Raspberry, Cherry, Cola, Vimto style grape and berry. Those devices are no longer legal UK stock, but the taste for the flavours never went away. Ultimate 5000 Salt bottles those profiles as nicotine salt e-liquid so they can be vaped in any refillable pod kit, at a fraction of the daily cost and without throwing a battery in the bin every few days.
Nicotine salt is the format that makes a bar flavour feel like a bar. A benzoic acid formulation lowers the liquid's pH, so 20mg goes down smoothly where a freebase liquid at the same strength would catch the back of the throat. Absorption is quick, which means a handful of draws settles a craving the way a disposable did. What sets this range apart from most of its competitors is the 5mg option. Nearly every bar salt line stops at 10mg and 20mg; Ultimate 5000 Salt adds a genuinely low 0.5% strength in every flavour, which turns it into a complete tapering path rather than just a replacement for a disposable.
The flavour list runs to 20 and leans into fruit, with Dr Blue and Blue Raspberry as the headline sellers, Cherry Bar and VMT covering the drinks and sweet shop end, and H2O and Ultimate Moon for people who want the cold without the fruit.
How to Choose Ultimate 5000 Salt Flavours
Twenty flavours is enough to need a map. Every bottle below costs £2.00 while the sale runs and comes in all three strengths, so the only decision is taste. Grouping by family makes it easier to pick a spread rather than ordering five variations on the same blue theme.
Blue and Berry Nic Salt Flavours
Best for: former disposable users who want the familiar blue hit first. Dr Blue is blueberry with a cool edge and the range's signature, Blue Raspberry is the straight sweet classic, and Blueberry Sour Raspberry adds the sharp tang that made that flavour a bar bestseller. Blueberry Peach, Blackberry Strawberry Blueberry and Plum Berry take the berry theme somewhere softer and rounder.
Ice and Menthol Nic Salt Flavours
Best for: a crisp, cold exhale all day. H2O is as clean as menthol gets, Ultimate Moon layers ice over a sweet base, and Cola Chill puts frost on a fizzy cola. Pineapple Ice and Hawaiian Sunset bring the cooling to tropical fruit.
Tropical and Mixed Fruit Nic Salt Flavours
Best for: vapers who want fruit without menthol. Tropical Crush is the range's big holiday blend, Peach Mango Watermelon stacks three ripe fruits, and Raspberry Watermelon and White Peach & Raspberry pair two fruits for a cleaner profile.
Sour and Citrus Nic Salt Flavours
Best for: anyone who finds standard bar flavours too sweet. Sour Cherry Apple is the sharpest bottle in the range, Raspberry Blueberry Lemon cuts berries with citrus, and Lemon & Lime is pure zest.
Drinks and Sweet Shop Nic Salt Flavours
Best for: the disposable classics that were never about fruit. VMT is the Vimto style grape, raspberry and blackcurrant cordial, Cherry Bar is the sweet cherry profile from the bar era, and Cola Chill crosses over from the ice family.
All 20 flavours suit any refillable mouth to lung pod kit, ideally with coils between 0.6ohm and 1.2ohm. If you are building a first order, a sensible spread is two from the blue and berry family, one ice, one tropical, and one sour or drinks profile you have not tried. At £2.00 a bottle, a flavour that misses costs less than a sandwich. Sweet profiles like VMT and Cherry Bar will tire a coil a little faster than H2O or Lemon & Lime, so alternate them with a crisp flavour if you want your pods to last.
Which Nic Salt Range Is Right for You?
Ultimate 5000 Salt is one of several bar flavour salt ranges in our nicotine salts collection, and two of its closest rivals come from the same manufacturer. Here is how it compares with the alternatives most customers weigh it against.
The honest guidance: if strength flexibility matters, Ultimate 5000 Salt wins outright, because the 5mg option does not exist in Bar Salts, Elux or Bar Juice. If price is the only factor, Ultimate Bar Salts at 99p is cheaper still, though with a shorter list and no low strength. If you want the largest menu of bar names, Bar Juice 5000 has twice the flavours. If the Legend 3500 was your device, Elux is the exact match.
Where the ranges overlap most is flavour style. All four chase the direct, sweet punch of the disposables they descend from, and a Blue Raspberry from any of them will be recognisable. The differences are in the edges: Ultimate 5000 Salt runs slightly less sweet than Bar Juice and keeps its ice flavours cleaner, which is why H2O and Dr Blue are the bottles customers return for. At £2.00 a bottle, the cheapest way to settle it is to buy the same flavour from two ranges and vape them back to back.
How to Use Ultimate 5000 Salt Nic Salts
Moving from a disposable to bottled nic salt changes one thing about your routine: the liquid goes into a refillable pod instead of arriving sealed inside a device. Everything else, including the flavour and the strength, stays familiar. These steps take you from first bottle to daily habit.
Step 1: Choose Your Strength
Pick 20mg (2%) to match a disposable or if you smoked heavily, 10mg (1%) for moderate use or stepping down, and 5mg (0.5%) if you are a light vaper or on the last stage of tapering.
Step 2: Fill Your Pod
Shake the bottle, open the fill port on your pod and fill to just below the max line. The nozzle fits every standard pod port. Close the port firmly so the pod does not leak.
Step 3: Let a New Coil Soak
With a fresh pod or coil, wait 5 to 10 minutes after filling so the cotton saturates. This single habit prevents nearly every burnt taste complaint we hear about.
Step 4: Vape Gently
Take slow mouth to lung draws at low wattage, under 20W. Nicotine salt delivers efficiently, so a few puffs do the work of many on a weaker liquid.
Step 5: Refill Before Empty
Top up when the liquid drops to about a quarter so the coil never runs dry. A dry hit damages the cotton and the flavour never fully recovers.
Step 6: Replace the Pod or Coil
Swap the coil or pod every 7 to 14 days, sooner if flavour dulls. Sweet profiles such as VMT and Cherry Bar need changing sooner than H2O or Lemon & Lime.
Store bottles upright, away from sunlight, heat and, above all, children and pets. An opened bottle tastes best used within a few weeks, though a sealed one keeps for months in a drawer. If a flavour you know well suddenly tastes flat, change the pod before blaming the bottle; sweet residue on an ageing coil mutes everything vaped after it.
Ultimate 5000 Salt vs a 5000 Puff Disposable: Key Differences Explained
| Feature | Ultimate 5000 Salt 10ml | 5000 Puff Disposable |
|---|
| UK legal status | Fully TPD compliant | Not legal UK stock: exceeded 2ml limit |
| Flavour | Bar profiles bottled by Ultimate Puff | Original device flavours |
| Cost per 10ml of liquid | £2.00 on sale (£4.99 regular) | £10 to £15 for a comparable fill |
| Hardware needed | Any refillable MTL pod kit | None, single use |
| Strength options | 5mg, 10mg or 20mg | 20mg only |
| Waste | One small plastic bottle | Whole device, battery and coil |
| Maintenance | Refill pod, change coil every 1 to 2 weeks | None |
| Best suited for | Bar flavour fans vaping legally and cheaply | No longer available in the UK |
The bottled format asks slightly more of you, a refill and an occasional coil change, and pays that back many times over in running cost, strength choice and flavour variety.
The cost line deserves to be made concrete. A 5000 puff disposable held roughly 10 to 13ml of liquid and sold for well over £10. At the sale price of £2.00 per 10ml, the same quantity of a comparable flavour now costs a fraction of that, plus a one off £10 to £25 for a pod kit that lasts months. For a daily vaper, the point where bottles plus hardware beat the old disposable spend arrives inside the first week or two, and everything after that is saving. The strength choice is the real upgrade: the disposables only ever existed at 20mg, while this range lets you hold the flavour and cut the nicotine to a quarter whenever you are ready.
Who Should Use Ultimate 5000 Salt?
Former Disposable Users Wanting Bar Flavours
Dr Blue, Blue Raspberry, Cherry Bar and VMT are the names you already know, in a format that is legal, refillable and a fraction of the daily cost.
Vapers Stepping Down Their Nicotine
The 20mg to 10mg to 5mg ladder in every flavour means you can taper without a single change of taste, which is where most tapering attempts fall apart.
Budget Conscious Nic Salt Buyers
At £2.00 a bottle, a month of average vaping costs less than two disposables did, and the price is the same across all 20 flavours and three strengths.
Light and Social Vapers
The 5mg strength suits anyone who vapes occasionally and finds 10mg too much, a group most bar salt ranges simply ignore.

How Long Does a 10ml Bottle of Ultimate 5000 Salt Last?
A 10ml bottle refills a standard 2ml pod five times. How long that lasts depends on how much you vape and, to a surprising degree, on which strength you choose.
- Light vapers (under 200 puffs a day): around 5 to 7 days per bottle.
- Average vapers (200 to 400 puffs a day): around 2 to 4 days per bottle.
- Heavy vapers (400+ puffs a day): around 1 to 2 days per bottle.
A quick sense check against your old habit helps: a 5000 puff disposable held roughly 10 to 13ml of liquid, so however long one of those lasted you is roughly how long a bottle will last in a healthy pod kit. On those numbers, ten bottles at £20 cover an average vaper for about a month. Usage figures are approximate and based on average conditions; a tired coil wastes liquid, so swap pods or coils regularly for the best economy.
Strength changes the maths in a way that catches people out. Vapers on 5mg or 10mg usually get through liquid faster than those on 20mg, because it takes more puffs to reach the same satisfaction. If bottles are disappearing quicker than expected after stepping down, that is normal and not a sign of a leaky pod. Weigh it against the alternative of staying on 20mg and taking fewer puffs; at £2.00 a bottle the difference amounts to pennies a day either way.
Buying Ultimate 5000 Salt in the UK
All Ultimate 5000 Salt sold here complies with the UK Tobacco and Related Products Regulations (TPD): a maximum 10ml bottle for nicotine containing e-liquid, a maximum strength of 20mg/ml (2%), child resistant caps and tamper evident seals. UK law also requires every nicotine e-liquid to be notified to the MHRA before sale, and the Ultimate Puff range is sold on that basis under its manufacturer, Ultimate Juice Limited. The products are made in the UK. Store bottles upright at room temperature, away from sunlight, children and pets.
Genuine Ultimate Puff stock is easy to recognise: UK compliant labelling states the strength as both mg/ml and a percentage, bottles carry batch codes and tactile warning marks, and the cap is child resistant. Any bottle larger than 10ml with nicotine in it, or anything labelled above 20mg, is not legal UK stock regardless of what the branding says. Buying from an authorised retailer is the simplest way to be sure the liquid inside matches the label.
Safety & Age Restriction
As with all nicotine containing products, nic salt e-liquids carry a risk of nicotine dependency and may cause irritation for some users. Vaping products are intended for existing adult smokers and vapers and should be used responsibly.
- 18+ only. Age verification is required on every order.
- Maximum 10ml bottle size and 20mg/ml nicotine strength under UK TPD rules.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets at all times.
Sale Pricing and Ultimate 5000 Salt Guidance
The current price of £2.00 per bottle is a reduction from the regular £4.99, applied to every flavour and every strength, so there is no need to hunt for the cheap ones. Ten bottles come to £20, which covers an average vaper for roughly a month and sits comfortably with a pod kit or a pack of coils to clear the £50 free delivery threshold. A sensible first order is a spread across two or three flavour families: a couple of known favourites from the blue family, an ice, a tropical blend and one sour or drinks profile you have not tried. Our Vape Sale collection lists the other ranges currently reduced if you want to mix brands in the same basket.
One thing regular customers work out quickly: liquid is at its best fresh, so a rolling monthly order in a slowly changing mix of flavours beats one enormous stock up, both on taste and on the flexibility to chase whichever profile you are currently enjoying. Only the pod or coil gets replaced between orders; the device itself carries on for months, which is where the saving against disposables really comes from.

Need Help Getting Started with Vaping in the UK?
If you are moving from a disposable to a refillable kit for the first time, the switch is simpler than it looks: one pod kit, one bottle, and about a minute learning to refill. Our UK based team can recommend a device to pair with these salts before you spend anything; reach us via the Hulme Vapes contact page. The questions we answer most often are which pod kit to start with (almost any current model in our vape kits collection under £25 is fine), whether 10mg or 20mg is right (match 20mg if a 5000 puff disposable lasted you under a week, otherwise start at 10mg), and when to try 5mg (once 10mg feels like more than you need). To browse independently, the full nicotine salts collection is organised by brand for easy comparison.
