Best SKE Crystal Flavours UK 2026: Top Pods & Nic Salts Ranked

Best SKE Crystal Flavours UK 2026: Top Pods & Nic Salts Ranked

By:

Very few brands have earned the kind of loyalty the SKE Crystal vape seems to have enjoyed over the last few years or so. Among vapers, they became a household name thanks to their popular disposables - you would spot them in half the hands of any urban bus stop, on any given day.

So much so that it almost became a little overwhelming. They were left randomly on train platforms, discarded in taxi cup holders, abandoned on pub windowsills and beer garden tables up and down the country. The brand did not so much enter the UK vaping scene as colonise it, and it did so on the back of one very good disposable that seemed to be in everyone's pocket at once.

SKE probably made a small fortune. And who would begrudge them? They made a great product at a reasonable price - it wasn't their fault that many people disposed of them a bit irresponsibly.

Post-Disposable Ban

Then the UK had a change of heart about disposable vapes, and the phenomenon was mercifully snuffed out. In turn, SKE did something really quite bright: it took everything people actually liked about the Crystal, including the flavour, effortless draw, and handy size, and rebuilt it as something you charge up and keep rather than throw in a bin outside the chippy.

That leaves you with two options. The prefilled pod kits are the simple choice, providing a sealed pod that clicks in and requires very little thought. Or, for those who like to get involved with their device, the 10ml nic salts pour the same lovely recipes into a bottle for your own refillable kit, working out cheaper per ml in the bargain.

Either way, the SKE Crystal vape range really delivers on flavour, and we decided it was time to put together a compilation of our favourites. So here it is. The best SKE Crystal flavours worthy of separating you from your shekels, in our esteemed view.

Key Takeaways

  • The range spans six devices plus a nic salt line, from the pocket-sized Crystal Bar 600 right up to the 30,000-puff Pro Max. Something for every kind of vaper.

  • Prefilled or refillable, your choice. Prefilled pod kits keep things delightfully simple with click-in pods, while the 10ml nic salts let you refill your own kit for less.

  • Prices start low. Devices run from £3.95 for the Crystal Bar 600 to £13.95 for the Pro Max 30K, with nic salt bottles at £3.95 or three for £10.

  • Puff counts scale to suit. Pick roughly 600 puffs for a light, pocketable option or up to 30,000 if you would rather not think about it for weeks.

  • Every device is 20mg nic salt and MTL, delivering that smooth, cigarette-style draw SKE built its name on.

  • Pods are device-specific. A CL6000 pod will not fit a Bar 15K, so match the pod to your kit when you reorder.

SKE Crystal Nic Salts to Try Now

Seen by seasoned vapers as the dependable, safe bet when you just want something that hits the spot, SKE Crystal Nic Salts has some cracking recipes to pick from. Available in 10ml bottles, mixed at a smooth 50/50, with both 10mg and 20mg options, every bottle is priced at £3.95 (or three for £10). We think the whole range tastes pretty great, but five in particular will have the old taste buds bouncing.

Strawberry-flavored e-liquid in a pink bottle and box.
Strawberry Burst Nic Salt

Think homemade jam rather than fresh fruit bowl: thick, sweet strawberry with a candied push and a cool finish.

Cherry-flavored vape juice in a pink bottle with warning label.
Cherry Ice Nic Salt

Cherry done well. It’s deep and almost jammy, then a wave of menthol crashes over, pulling it together. All-day stuff.

E-liquid bottle with packaging, warning about nicotine addiction.
Blue Fusion Nic Salt

Three berries at work: strawberry out front, blackberry and raspberry adding shadow, ice tying it off. Rounded and sweet.

E-liquid bottle with a green label and warning about nicotine addiction.
Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava Nic Salt

Tangy kiwi and passion fruit bring a touch of sugar, and guava adds a floral edge. Best on warm days. Bring your best Hawaiian shirt.

E-liquid bottle and packaging labeled
Pink Lemonade Nic Salt

Berries and lemonade. An odd pairing, but it works: tart where you expect sweet, and that sharp streak for a nostalgic all-dayer.

SKE Crystal Bar 600 Prefilled Pod Kit

If you were fond of the popular disposable Crystal Bar but not the part where you bin the whole thing every few days, the SKE Crystal Bar 600 might just be for you. It boasts the same 600-puff draw and mesh-coil flavour, but now built into a slim £3.95 body you recharge over Type-C and keep.

There are plenty of flavours to choose from. Spoilt for choice might be an accurate description of this smooth but daringly bold collection, with the Crystal Bar 600 range spanning over 30 flavours.

Our three picks below come with a 2ml pod at 20mg strength for £2.95.

Strawberry Burst Crystal Bar 600

Sun-ripened strawberry with a soft candy tang running underneath it. It’s smooth, easy, and hard to put down.

Cherry Ice Crystal Bar 600

Rich wild cherry hit with an icy snap from the first draw. Sharp, definitely not medicinal, and absurdly moreish.

Nicotine product packaging with warning label and branding information.
Blueberry Sour Raspberry Crystal Bar 600

Bold blueberry, tangy raspberry, then a streak of sour candy tilting things sideways. One to grab when plain sweet stops cutting it.

SKE 600 Pro Best E-Liquid Flavours

The SKE Crystal 600 Pro houses a built-in rechargeable battery and a 2ml pod that clicks out when it is spent, delivering the same 600 puffs as earlier disposable versions, all in a brilliantly made device that costs just £3.95.

It runs its own 600 Pro pods, sold in twos for £4.95 in either 10mg or 20mg. All are worth parting with your hard-earned, but three especially leap out as being quite special.

Lemon and lime flavored vape product packaging with warning label.
Lemon Lime Crystal 600 Pro

Sharp lemon and lime, with barely a nod to sweetness. The palate-cleanser of the range. Think bright and zippy.

Vape product packaging with cola flavor and nicotine warning label.
Cola Ice Crystal 600 Pro

Fizzy cola with a cold edge, close enough to the real can that you expect bubbles. The ice keeps it from going syrupy. Nostalgic? Not’arf.

Vape product packaging labeled
Pineapple Ice Crystal 600 Pro

Ripe pineapple with the tang left in, then a clean icy finish. Tropical and tart, this is the pick of the bunch if you like fruit that has a go back.

SKE CL2000 Best E-Liquid Flavours

While some vapes require a bachelor's degree in faffing, the SKE CL2000 just gets on with it, which is exactly why people are so fond of it. Its dual-chamber pod holds 4ml across two sections for roughly 2000 puffs, topped off by an 850mAh battery that fast-charges over Type-C in well under an hour.

At just £6.95, the clear body lets you see your liquid running low, and the whole thing is refreshingly faff-free. Just buy it, and crack on. The CL2000 range spans 20 flavours, three of which are a great starting point, having been suitably tested in the Vape Superstore HQ.

Fruit Gum CL2000

Mixed fruit meets soft bubblegum, chewy and bright and joyfully artificial. If sweets are your thing, this is your pod.

Peach Ice CL2000

Soft, ripe peach on the inhale, then a wave of ice arrives before things get too peachy. A mellow, laid-back, peachy/minty all-dayer.

SKE Pro Max Best E-Liquid Flavours

While many vapes come with limited options, the SKE 30K Pro Max laughs in the face of ‘tough decision making’ by pairing two flavours in a single device, cleverly accessed with a deft flick of the wrist.

It is built for the long haul, too, with roughly 30,000 puffs, a 1250mAh battery that recharges via Type-C in around 40 minutes, and smooth 20mg mesh-coil hits throughout. The Pro Max 30K range offers 20 options made up of 10 single flavours and 10 dual editions, three of which, we think, are chief among them.

Bubblegum Edition Pro Max 30K

Grape Gum on one side, Hubba Bubba on the other. Chewy, sugary, and cheerful, this is the sweet-tooth pairing your teeth with welcome with open, uh.. arms.

SKE 30K Pro Max with berry edition flavor and nicotine warning.
Berry Edition Pro Max 30K

A double hit of berries, one straight, one mixed. Simple? Yes. But also ripe, jammy, and easy-going. The fruity all-rounder of the range.

SKE 30K Pro Max vape packaging with warning about nicotine addiction.
Ultimate Edition Pro Max 30K

Sharp lemon and lime twisted against sweet blueberry raspberry. So it’s citrus one minute, jammy fruit the next, all from the same device, which is all rather clever, isn't it?

SKE Bar 15K Best E-Liquid Flavours

It would be fair to describe the SKE Bar 15K as an extremely clever piece of kit, designed to make life infinitely easier. Some might say it is a stroke of pure genius, although we probably wouldn't go that far.

It works on a two-part system, with a 2ml pod you vape from, sitting in front of a 10ml refill container that automatically feeds into it as the pod runs low. That gives you 12ml of liquid and up to 15,000 puffs in total, with no manual refilling to think about. Fuelling all this is an 850mAh battery that fast-charges via USB-C in about 30 minutes. Again, clever stuff.

And well priced, too. At £9.95, this SKE Crystal vape is not only affordable but laughably easy to get along with. The Bar 15K range spans 20 flavours, with the three below being a fine, fine place to begin, in our expert view.

SKE Bar 15K disposable vape, flavor: Fruit Medley, warning label included.
Fruit Medley Bar 15K

A bright tumble of tropical fruit, sweet and juicy, all at once. If you can't decide which fruit you fancy, this rather cleverly puts the argument to bed.

SKE Bar 15K vape in Fizzy Cherry flavor with warning label.
Fizzy Cherry Bar 15K

Sweet cherry meets sugary, tart, fizzy candy, like a sherbet-dipped cherry from the corner shop. Nostalgic, playful, cheeky, and just the right side of how's your father.

Sike Bar 15K Kiwi Passion Fruit Guava vape product with warning label.
Kiwi Passionfruit Guava Bar 15K

Sweet kiwi, tangy passionfruit, and juicy guava in one yummy, exotic mouthful. It tastes like a holiday. Sort of. Well, not really. It tastes great either way.

SKE Crystal CL6000 Best E-Liquid Flavours

How might you describe the SKE Crystal CL6000? Probably that it does the sensible things very well indeed. A dual-mesh reliably handles the flavour, while an 800mAh battery charges over Type-C, and a small OLED screen keeps you briefed on how much charge is left. It's a well-constructed device which, for the money, is frankly showing off a bit.

The liquid comes as a 2ml pod fed by a 10ml refill container, which works out to around 6000 puffs, and at £9.95, it really is a lot of vape for the money. The CL6000 range runs to 24 flavours, three of which are especially worthy of your attention.

Crystal CL600 vape product with nicotine warning label.
Peach Mango Watermelon Crystal CL6000

Peach, mango, and watermelon together for a sweet and summery hit, resulting in the sort of vape you finish far quicker than you meant to. That's not a bad thing.

Vaping product packaging with warning about nicotine addiction.
Triple Mango Crystal CL6000

Mango and not much else. But then, that's pretty much the whole point. So, if mango is your flavour, this does not muck about.

Pink Lemonade Crystal CL6000

Seasonal berries with a fizzy lemonade lift, sweet and sharp at once. Named pink lemonade, though the berries do most of the talking.

Bottom Line

There you have it. Our curated picks of the SKE Crystal lineup, from the pocket-sized Crystal Bar 600 to the 30,000-puff Pro Max, with a good few suggestions in between.

We had fun putting this together, here at Vape Superstore towers. It involved a lot of debate (sometimes borderline heated), but one thing we can all agree on is that a good compilation should be fuss-free, because devices and flavours should not ask too much of you. They should remain affordable, taste great, and let you get on with it without wincing at the price or grimacing at overpowering flavours.

There is almost certainly something here with your name on it. The hard part is narrowing it down, though there are worse problems to have, as the old adage goes.

So have a proper browse, pick the flavour that appeals to you, and let an SKE Crystal vape sort the rest. The full range is in stock now, with our usual next-day delivery. The only thing left to do is make your selection and enjoy.

FAQs

There is no single winner, and anyone who tells you otherwise is probably selling something. That said, Blue Fusion has a fairly loyal following, and Cherry Ice is the sort of reliable, agreeable choice you rarely regret. Either way, the joy of the SKE Crystal nic salt range is that it doesn't cost much to find your favourite.

Nic salts deliver nicotine more smoothly than standard freebase e-liquid, so you get a gentler throat hit and quicker satisfaction. SKE Crystal nic salt is perfect for MTL devices and anyone who finds ordinary 20mg liquid a touch on the harsh side.

Two strengths: 10mg and 20mg, both in 10ml bottles at a 50/50 ratio. The 10mg usually suits lighter (or more casual) vaping, while 20mg is the one most people go for when they want cravings satisfied quickly. At £3.95 a bottle, or three for a tenner, stocking a couple of each is probably no great extravagance.

The bigger SKE Crystal kits use prefilled pods rather than refillable ones, so you simply pop in a fresh pod when the old one is spent. It keeps things clean and quick, with no bottle of liquid precariously balanced over a sink while your other half nervously watches you from a distance.

Sadly not. Each device takes its own matching pods, so a CL6000 pod will not fit a Bar 15K, and so on. Check the device name on the pod before buying, and you will hopefully do no wrong.
