Anyone Add Menthol Juice to other Flavors - Where to Buy/How much to use?

[super amjo]

Hi All -

I was a huge menthol smoker and am finding it hard to find a flavor I like - I've tried loads to based on the reviews (Backwoods, Heathers, Mr. e-liquids, Smokeless Image) - but I like the tobacco flavors from some of these vendors.

I was wondering where I can buy some menthol to just add directly to the premade flavor, how much to add and really if that is possible to do -

Thanks...Super

There are several options, here's a vendor that has pretty much all the options...just go to the search bar, and type in menthol.

High Desert Age Test

I use, and sometimes experiment with, menthol drops from Alien Vision. To me, and this is very much a personal taste issue, mixing menthol with AV's Flue Cured or Blend 4 has come the closest to replicating a real cig.

These menthol drops are pretty strong, one or two drops in a 5ml bottle is all you need.

I agree that the flavor concentrates are quite strong. You can get TFA flavors from My Freedom Smokes or One Stop DIY (not affiliated..just a customer). A couple of drops go a long way. If it's just the "cooling" effect you are after...giving an icy jolt to a flavor but not changing it at all use Koolada. VERY strong stuff. I make my DIY juice in 60 ml. batches...I prefer a strong menthol...too strong for many people. I only use 3ml. menthol concentrate to 60ml. and add only 9 drops of Koolada for the icy blast. That gives you an idea how strong it is.

I add Mt. Baker Vapor's "Extreme Ice" to some of my liquids when I want some menthol. I never order menthol juice. It just never seems to be right...

altsmoke synappse 24mg nic and volt liquids ry4 18mg nic 1.2ml/1.2ml in a tank=amazing using a kanger t2 makes a really good menthol cinnamon apple tobbacco flavor with tobacco being the main flavor for some reason

If you're into camel menthol, I tried and loved Vaporkings 24mg. A little chemically and only sold in 10ml bottles, but I'd think it'd blend good with another flavor. Probably about 3 drops to a 1ml container of another juice depending on how strong of menthol flavor you want. (By camel menthol, I meant with the bead popped in the filter for the tingly icy menthol feeling).

From some of the things I have read, Mike at Rawr Vapors LOVES his menthol. All their flavors have the menthol option. Maybe send him an email and let him know what you looking for. Good luck!

Prior to DIY, I used Ice ICE ("extra" flavor) from VD (peppermint/spearmint flavored menthol) to enhance tobacco/fruity/minty flavor eliquids and enjoyed the results. Start with 1-2 drops per 3ml of eliquid and add more if desired.

Use DIY flavors to mentholate any eliquid (WL Flavor Labfor small quantities):
TPA 10% menthol - start with 1 drop per ml but too much will make your eliquid taste like vapor rub

AND/OR​

TPA Koolada 10% - start with 1 drop per ml for a cooling effect but too much will cause throat irritation (similar to menthol drops but doesn't effect the taste as much)

DIY your own menthol drop to save $$$:
A thread on how to make menthol drop can be found here. The ratio and how concentrated depends on your preference (WL mixes it at 10%).

Here's how I mixed mine (purchased menthol crystal from WL):
1.Empty the 15g bottle of menthol crystal into a small zip-lock bag and crush it with something hard.
2.Stuff roughly half (~7.5g) into a 30ml bottle and fill it with PG all the way to the neck.
3.Shake vigorously and allow it to dissolve, you can use a warm water bath or microwave (5 sec intervals) to speed up the process.
4.This will leave you with ~20-25% menthol, start with 1 drop to 3ml eliquid and add more if desired.​

I buy Vapor Bomb Artic Ice in zero nicotine. Yes it's probably cheaper to buy crystals or menthol flavoring, but this has a really good taste. If you want something menthol with a touch of sweetness, Vapor Station Frost is good.

 

[The Ocelot]

Instead of menthol I often add "Koolada" (a.k.a. "Cool Hit") to flavors. Koolada has no taste of it's own, it just adds a cooling sensation to the TH. TPA has it as a 0 nic additive, but you can buy it from vendors with nic and/or sweetener if you want.

My personal favorite menthol flavor is "Creme De Menthe" (in the Perfumer's Apprentice category) from liberty-flights.com. It's silky-smooth with a bit of a sweet taste. Menthol flavors tend to be very strong, so I'd suggest you add a drop and test. You can always add more if it's too weak for your taste. I personally mix all sorts of flavors that I think might work. Peppermint has become my base flavor which I find mixes well with "chocolate" (peppermint patty anyone?),black cherry, gingerbread, etc... Hope this helps!

Menthol with Anis
Menthol with Pomegranate (Lorann)

I add HHV Menthol Ice to their Dark Horse (and recently Huntsman) tobacco flavors. I find that it doesn't change the flavor much, just adds a nice finish.

I'm a huge vanilla fan, but there is nothing better then adding a few drops of menthol to the perfect vanilla blend.

As for adding menthol, its best to start out with a few drops at first, you can all ways add more, u can't remove it if u add to much hahaha.
