A wick for a liquid electric vaporiser is disclosed. The wick comprises charcoal, inorganic minerals and water. Furthermore, the wick has a lower end and an upper end and is characterized in that the wick has a porosity between 24% and 44%, more preferably between 28% and 42%, and most preferably between 31% and 40% by volume. The wick exhibits a permeability between 3.2 and 9 mm per hour, more preferably between 3.8 and 8 mm per hour, and most preferably between 4 and 6 mm per hour, wherein the permeability is a measure of a vertical travel speed of a solvent liquid to travel from the lower end to the upper end of the wick by capillary action when the lower end of the wick is placed in a pool of the solvent liquid having a viscosity of between 1 and 10 cP, in particular between 1 and 4 cP, and a pool depth of about 2-4 mm. A liquid electric vaporiser including said wick is also disclosed.
