About ZenCig

ZenCig is a cleaner and healthier alternative to smoking for all. ZenCig is one of the leading electronic cigarette companies in this rapidly emerging and fast-growing market. The Company began online sales in 2011 and expanded to retail in 2013. ZenCig offers the highest quality and latest technology in this market. ZenCig provides an artificial flavored vapor with or without nicotine. A cartridge filled with an aromatic liquid is located in the filter. Ingredients contained in the cartridge include nicotine, artificial flavor and glycerol. During inhalation, the microprocessor enables a spray, mixing the air inhaled with the liquid contained in the cartridge. This vapor is then inhaled by the user. Evaporation of glycerol allows an imitation of real smoke produced by a cigarette. A LED at the end of the cigarette simulates true combustion and the sprayed mixture is delivered at a temperature of 50-60 Celsius degrees which is comparable to regular tobacco cigarette. With a soft filter and same size and weight as a real cigarette, it really gives to its user the most realistic experience of a tobacco cigarette. And without tar, ash and second hand smoke, people can really start to BREATH AGAIN ! With its established online presence and the lowest retail price in the world, the ZenCig management team is positioned to leverage its already well-recognized brand and give great value to its shareholders.
