Blackwood Black Diamond Salt Nic E-Liquid 30mL
Black Diamond is a light tobacco cured with oak — the plainest, most cigarette-like bottle Blackwood makes, and the one to start with if you are moving off cigarettes. $24.99 for 30mL at UniVape, the lowest federal-rate price on Blackwood salt in Canada. All five flavours are on the Blackwood salt collection.
The flavour
A light but robust tobacco on the inhale, smooth rather than sharp, with the oak curing sitting underneath it and giving the whole thing a dry, woody edge. The finish is crisp and clean — there is no sweetener coating it, no cream, no fruit and no menthol. That is the appeal: most tobacco e-liquids in this market are really dessert flavours with a tobacco note somewhere in them, and this one is not. If you want a tobacco that tastes like tobacco and nothing more, this is the bottle.
The nearest flavour in the line is Blue Diamond, which is this same light tobacco with menthol run through it. Duke is the heavier, spicier step up, and Double Barrel goes sweeter. All five sit on the Blackwood salt collection, and the same flavour in a tank blend is on the freebase collection.

How it compares
At $24.99 for 30mL, Black Diamond works out to 83 cents per mL. Canadian retailers pricing at the federal excise rate sell Blackwood salt at $25.95 to $26.99, and shops carrying the provincial stamp run $33.75 to $36.99, so this is the cheapest Blackwood salt in the country. On our own salt shelf it undercuts Kapow 30mL salt at $25.99 (87 cents per mL). Crave at $23.99 is lower still at 80 cents, but Crave is a dessert line — there is no tobacco in it. If you want the same Black Diamond flavour cheaper per mL, the freebase version is $18.99 (63 cents), but it needs a tank rather than a pod.
Who it suits
A 50/50 blend at 20mg belongs in a pod: UWELL Caliburn, Vaporesso XROS, SMOK Nord, or anything else in our pod systems range running a coil above 0.8 ohm. Blackwood states that its salt range is not for sub-ohm tanks, and that is worth taking seriously — 20mg at high wattage is harsh and wasteful. Tobacco flavours are also easier on coils than sweetened ones, so expect longer pod life from this than from a dessert liquid.
Blackwood Black Diamond — frequently asked questions
What does Black Diamond taste like?
A light, smooth tobacco cured with oak, finishing clean and dry. No sweetener, cream, fruit or menthol.
Is this a good first flavour for someone quitting cigarettes?
It is the most cigarette-like of the five, which is why most people start here. Blue Diamond is the same tobacco with menthol if that is closer to what you smoked.
Can I use it in a sub-ohm tank?
No. Blackwood specifies pod systems only for its salt range. For a tank, buy the Blackwood freebase version of this flavour instead.
What other nicotine strengths does Blackwood salt come in?
Blackwood produces this line in 12mg, 20mg and a 20mg BOLD50 version. We stock 20mg — contact us if you need one of the others and we will tell you what we can get in.
