Quick answer: OB Vape no longer stocks Liqua. If you vaped Liqua 50/50, the closest swaps are Tobacco – OB 50/50 for tobacco, Sensational Menthol – OB 50/50 for menthol, and the IVG 50/50 range for fruit. All are 10ml, 50VG/50PG, and work in the same kits you used Liqua in.
Liqua was a go-to 10ml for a lot of Irish vapers: simple flavours, a 50/50 mix that suited mouth-to-lung kits, and it did what it said on the bottle. We've stopped carrying it, so we went through our shelves and picked the e-liquids that come closest, flavour by flavour. Every one below is the same 10ml, 50VG/50PG style, so there's nothing to relearn and no new kit to buy.

Shop Caribbean CrushUsed Liqua 4S nic salts instead?
Liqua's 4S line was a nicotine salt, which gives a smoother throat hit at higher strengths (usually 10mg or 20mg). If that's what you used, stay with a salt rather than switching to a 50/50 freebase. Most of our customers coming from Liqua 4S move to Maryliq Menthol or one of our tobacco salts.

Used Liqua 50ml shortfills?
Liqua also made 50ml shortfills for bigger, cloudier kits. Our shortfill range covers the same ground and works out far cheaper per ml than 10ml bottles.
Which strength should I pick?
| Your Liqua strength | Pick in 50/50 |
|---|---|
| 0mg | 0mg (see our 0mg e-liquids) |
| 3mg or 6mg | 3mg or 6mg |
| 12mg | 12mg |
| 18mg | 18mg, or 16mg in Vapecom |
Strengths vary by flavour, so check the options on each product page before adding to basket.
Frequently asked questions
Does OB Vape still sell Liqua?
No. We've stopped stocking Liqua, which is why we put this guide together. Every product linked above is in our current range.
Is OB 50/50 the same as Liqua?
Not the same recipe, but the same format: 10ml, 50VG/50PG, freebase nicotine, made for the same kits. Tobacco – OB 50/50 and Sensational Menthol – OB 50/50 are the two we recommend most to ex-Liqua vapers.
Will these work in my kit?
If Liqua 50/50 worked in your kit, these will too. They're the same VG/PG ratio, so they suit mouth-to-lung pod and pen kits like the Vaporesso XROS, Uwell Caliburn and Aspire Gotek.
Can I pick these up in the shop?
Yes. Everything here is also available in our Drogheda shop, and staff are happy to tell you which is closest to what you used.
For adults 18+ who already use nicotine. Nicotine is addictive. Keep vaping products away from children and pets. Flavour availability may change as Irish vaping rules are updated.
