The Lancashire Creamery Butterscotch Ice Cream Deluxe 100ml

The 100ml in 120ml format is a shortfill bottle. The spare 20ml is for nicotine shots. Two 10ml shots fit exactly in the space available. Add both, replace the cap, shake for thirty to sixty seconds, and leave the bottle for five minutes before vaping. The result is 120ml at around 3mg freebase nicotine.

If you want stronger nicotine, two shots is the ceiling for this bottle size. Overfilling beyond 120ml will displace liquid and change the flavour balance. The Lancashire Creamery also produces the same flavour profiles in 10ml nic salt format at 5mg, 10mg, and 20mg if you need higher nicotine or prefer nic salts for a pod kit. Those 10ml versions use a 50/50 VG/PG base and work in standard pod systems rather than the sub-ohm setups required by the shortfill.

Vaping at 0mg is also entirely normal, especially for people who have stepped down from nicotine over time but still want the flavour ritual. The vapour production, flavour intensity, and coil life are identical whether you add shots or not. Many long-term vapers run the Lancashire Creamery shortfills at 0mg as their everyday choice.

The 70VG/30PG ratio makes this a sub-ohm liquid. High-VG formulas are thicker than standard e-liquid and need a coil with wide cotton wicking to saturate properly. A mouth-to-lung coil above 0.8 Ohm will not absorb the liquid fast enough, causing dry hits and burning the cotton. The only setups that will work reliably are direct-to-lung configurations with coils rated between 0.1 and 0.6 Ohm.

Practically, this means sub-ohm tanks on a regulated box mod, pod mods with mesh coils designed for high-VG liquid, or DTL-capable pod kits. The Vaporesso XROS Pro is a compact pod kit with a DTL coil option that handles 70VG liquids cleanly. The Geekvape Wenax Q2 is another in the same category: small, pocket-friendly, but with a coil rating suited to high-VG shortfills.

Whatever kit you use, prime the coil before the first puff. Fill the tank or pod, fit the coil, and leave it for three to five minutes. High-VG liquid takes longer to soak into new cotton than thinner e-liquid. Firing before it has saturated burns the dry cotton and leaves a harsh, slightly acrid taste that can affect the coil for the rest of its useful life. Starting at the lower end of the coil's wattage range also helps with the initial puff and lets you step up to your preferred level once the flavour is coming through cleanly.

The Lancashire Creamery brand has three 100ml shortfill sub-ranges, and it is worth knowing the distinction when you are choosing between them. The core Deluxe range, this one, is the milkshake and custard lineup. These are the flavours Future Juice Labs launched the brand with and the ones most associated with the Lancashire Creamery name. If you associate the brand with butterscotch or vanilla milkshake, you are thinking of the Deluxe range.

The Farm Shop range covers baked goods: Apple Sugar Doughnut, Blueberry Muffin, Custard Cannoli, Raspberry Custard, and Vanilla Shortbread. It is lighter on the cream and more bakery-oriented. The Ice Creamery range covers frozen desserts: Caramel Choo Choo, Caramelised Biscuit, Mint Choc Chip, and Strawberry Cheesecake. Ice cream parlour flavours, colder and crisper than the Deluxe range. All three use the same 70VG/30PG base, same bottle format, and same £41.99 price point. The Deluxe and Farm Shop are at £41.99 and the Ice Creamery is slightly less at £37.99.

The brand also produces 10ml nic salt versions of most profiles at 50/50 VG/PG, suited for pod kits and MTL vapers who want nicotine salts. Those are separate products with their own bottling and different device compatibility.

For dessert-focused sub-ohm vapers, yes. The five Deluxe profiles cover a broader range of custard and milkshake territory than most comparable shortfill lineups, and each has a clearly developed character. The Pistachio and Hazelnut Custard in particular has no real equivalent in the UK shortfill market at this quality level; most pistachio e-liquids flatten out into generic nut sweetness, where the Lancashire Creamery version maintains the specific warmth and roasted quality of actual pistachio.

The price point is the honest caveat. £41.99 for 100ml sits at the top of the shortfill bracket. Budget dessert shortfills from other brands come in at £20 to £30. The gap is real and the decision depends on how much you vape and what you are vaping for. Casual vapers cycling through many flavours will probably not notice the quality difference enough to justify the premium. Someone who drinks the same Lancashire Creamery Bread and Butter Pudding every day will.
