555 Menthol vs Smooth Menthol?

[JenWill]

I have the smooth menthol and love it, but with the 555 menthol as one of the specials of the week, I am wondering if someone could tell me the difference between the 2 please.

Thanks in advance!

Well I just received the 555... It's from what I understand, a generic tobacco type flavor. Slightly peppery/nutty, still a bit sweet and such. I've read a lot of reviews saying that the 555 menthol is more peppermint than menthol. That being said, I haven't tried it, so I couldn't say. Just figured I'd deposit some collective knowledge, lol.

Edit: Now that I think about it... I may have to pick up a bottle. The 555 is pretty decent but I'm a big fan of both peppermint and menthol. In lieu of just buying a straight menthol juice and mixing the two, I'm probably going to have to try this stuff. Any input would be appreciated from me as well!

Thanks for coming on and commenting......I was hoping more people would as well so I could make up my mind what to do. LOL

I have the smooth menthol, and I like it! It has a great menthol taste, similar to the analog brand "Ma.." ( or at least to my tastes lol ) I have not tried the 555 yet, but also want to get some to see the difference as well

 

[JenWill]

And that was my analog brand as well and think the same thing.

Anywho, I didn't want to miss out on the deal of the week, but didn't want to buy the 555 menthol in such a large size if I didn't know if I would like it or not.
So I bought the sweet tart on special and the smooth menthol anyway since I believe that is now my all day vape. hehehehe

Eh, I've bought four fotw bottles so far. Luckily enough I have not been disappointed. Worse comes to worst you can always try to trade, lol.

 

[JenWill]

I didn't think about trading. Oh well, next time it comes up as a special, I will have to get that..... Maybe I will even order a small bottle to try and pick it up. I might be taking a road trip down next weekend.

I guess I'm as qualified as anyone to respond to this question -- sorry I didn't see it sooner. I also used to smoke Ma... methol, and though I dabble in some of the sweeter frou-frou liquids, the Smooth Menthol and 555 Menthol are my two favorite flavors. I've tested dozens of menthols and menthol-tobacco blends from different suppliers and have settled on these two for my basic vapes. The Smooth Menthol is more purely menthol, and I like it as a base that I sometimes spike with other flavors. I've been trying out some interesting-sounding straight tobacco flavors just for that purpose (thank you, guys, for making those 10-pack 3ML testers available!). The 555 Menthol is my favorite for a menthol flavor with a mild underlying tobacco taste (without the kind of grassy aftertaste that a some of them have). I don't think you can go wrong with either of these.

I love the EC Menthol...anyone tried both? I can't figure out what it is about that flavor...
