Good evening!
November and December have been insane so I personally apologize for being a ghost lately. There are TONS of things that are we are changing and adding for this coming 2017 - all for the better. First thing to discuss is,
1. Purilum - River Flavors
River flavors was initially something we slowly wanted to move in to. The trouble was that the first couple flavors we created were not built from scratch or in other words from a molecular level. To be honest this bothered me and the team because what we were doing wasnāt that impressive. Upon going through this I can tell you guys that I can guarantee that 95% of the people in this industry that say they manufacture their own flavors are whole heartedly lying except for the name brands. If we could of done it we would of hahaha! Now where does Purilum fit into all of this? Purilum is company we have been working with very closely for a long time. They have a extremely large and sophisticated flavor house in North Carolina. You can check out a video of there business HERE
We believe that there is still a ton of gaps left in this industry when it comes to flavors and we want to bridge them to the best of our abilities. So long story short - on the website they now say āPurilumā instead of āRiver Flavorsā because that is who manufacturers them from scratch. We have no desire to lie and say we do them in house because 1. We no longer do and 2. We want everyone to know the level professionalism that is going into these. All flavors are free of all the bad chemicals and are exclusively sold at Nicotine River 
2. Nicotine Salts
This product will be launching mid January. People have been asking us to carry these products and we are in the final stages of our formulation. Also, this product will not be outlandishly expensive like most people out there are selling it for It will be relative to our current nicotine prices!
3. NicShield
NicShield is very similar to another product on the market that I am sure you all have heard of that is not carried by us this product is again our way of putting things into perspective that not everything is worth breaking the bank over. This product will also be released in the middle of January
I will have more updates come soon on some even larger matters! Feel free to ask any questions as I have now finally caught up.
Thank you all again for everything!

Thank you sir for the explanation. Good stuff. So, the blends you rolled out under the River brand, will those continue? Are they still going to be mixed as they were prior to release or reformulated by Purilum?
Looking forward to the ride with NR in 2017!

Purilum is reformulating them based off our previous recipe they will be identical

Nic River, I recently ordered some nicotine salts liquid from your site because I am wanting to get a higher nicotine hit without the harshness I get from anything above 6mg e-juice made with freebase nicotine . I live in Canada so I had to order the 48mg/ml option for international shipping . Do I basically use it the same as my 100mg/ml freebase nic ? and go for my 6mg target that I already use or maybe a 9mg because it wonāt be as harsh now ?
Thanks
Tim

Wanted to try and help you out with a few thingsā¦
The best way to try and get an active memberās attention here is to ātagā them by using an ampersand, and then use the drop-down menu to select the member name (ie: @Nicotine_River). This puts a notification icon (the blue circle on the upper right over your user name that you see if someone likes a post you made, quotes you, tags you, etc).
Incidentally, if you see a green circle on the upper left, that means you have a PM (private message) or a new post on a private thread you may be involved in.
Most importantly, wanted to clear up the misunderstanding between freebase nic, and 100mg/ml nic.
Freebase nic (as Iāve always understood it) is pure nicotine, or 1000mg/ml (1gram).
1000mg nic has been ācut downā (usually for safe handling) by having been added to PG or VG (for our purposes/intents) to end up with 100mg. while 100mg is still ultra strong, itās still potentially hazardous.
Regardless, Iāve been in some shops that use pure nicotine (aka freebase nic) and were you to ask for freebase nic, they might assume that you know what youāre doing, and make the mistake of selling it to you, not knowing that youāre thinking is only 100mg. You can see the inherent risk Iām sure, in just such a scenarioā¦
At any rate, from a safety standpoint, and because things like this have happened (Iāve read on ELR, and elsewhere that folks unknowingly bought freebaseā¦), my personal take is the onus is on you for that extra layer of safety! YOUR safety (or a family member, roommate, petā¦ ). But you canāt know if you donāt research, or someone doesnāt say something.
Anyways, NicotineRiver is awesome about responding, and phenomenal customer service, so I have no doubt youāll get guidance.
But please donāt take my long-winded post as anything less than wanting to make sure you stay safe in these new endeavors!
Hopefully this helped!

At sign, not ampersand. Ampersand is the and sign. 
To add to what you said, this is a really old thread. Theyāre more likely to pay attention to their vendor thread:

Hey @timmybear1
In regards to mixing the salts, they are mixed the exact same way as normal Nicotine. If you simply plug into the ejuice calculator that your desired strength is 6-9mg and your Nicotine strength is 48mg the calculator will work itās magic and give you the same results as if it was 100mg. In regards to the Salts themselves they will deliver a smoother hit even at 6-9mg however, the higher strength you go the smoother the vape!
*45-50mg is our suggested Nicotine limit for Salts/Normal Nicotine and we do not recommend anyone going above that strength as it can be lethal or dangerous.

Thank you for all the nic info and tips on tagging people, Iām still a newb on this forum and havenāt had the chance to learn all the ins and outs yet . The freebase Nic diluted to 100mg/ml whatever is what I meant . I donāt want that level of safety concern when mixing pure stuff . I definitely appreciate your post regarding personal safety and only took it as such.
Cheers
Tim
