So I'm fairly new to vaping, since 12/29/11, and haven't had an analog since. I feel as in this short time I've learned a helluva lot, especially reading in this forum everyday! I've even graduated from an ego to a vv tube, and am waiting patiently for my provari, which thankfully I'm receiving for my 33rd birthday! Woohoo! I've tried everything under the sun as far as cartos, attys, and juices and found sticking with cartos and carto tanks is the best option. The only thing that has escaped my grasp is the perfect menthol. I was an avoid camel menthol/crush smoker. I have found liquids that come close to what I'm looking for, like vaporbombs arctic mist, but all these juices are just missing that perfect hit. Arctic would be perfect if it just had a hint more of menthol, and mabey a bit more menthol sweetness. I usually use a 60/40 mix at 24 mg. If any of the veterans can help it would be very, very appreciated. Also if it helps, I usually vape anywhere between 3.9 to 5.5 depending on my resistance. Thank you in advance!

Minnesota Menthol from Vermillion River is my go-to menthol. I smoked Camel Menthols, too. It's not exact (nothing is) but it's got the best bang for the buck without being too mentholy, if that makes sense.

You might also try mixing Joogler's Chill - few drops --with your favorite straigh high-tobacco flavor. That is a good substitute in a pinch, I've found.

Thanks for the response! I've noticed even in my analog smoking that I did like a fairly heavy menthol with very little tobacco taste. I have tried some very nice tobacco flavors, namely torque from halo, but straight tobacco flavor just doesn't do it for me.....especially the aftertaste. I guess I should be asking 2 questions for this post. 1: What is the best menthol tobacco clone, and 2: What if the best straight menthol without much, if any, of a tobacco taste? Oh, and please keep spearmint out of the picture.... Went down that line once already....

You can also try adding a touch of sweetener (liquid sucralose) along with the menthol.

The only menthol that was 'cig-like' and helped me with the analog cravings was a Re-Nu Menthol Blend I bought through the classifieds. I don't know if Re-Nu is a company or brand, or if they're even in business anymore.

I havent tried many menthols, but I have prothol from vapor cast store and it is really good to me. Has a strong menthol flavor but there is no tobacco taste to it. For now it is my everyday vape and I didnt even like menthol analogs when i did smoke, I smoked marlboro lights. But agan, just my opinion since everyones is different.

Hmmmmmmm.... Vicks vaporub menthol....fairly intrigued! I guess I'm looking for both a straight menthol and a tobacco menthol depending on my mood. As far as a strong menthol I liked, I used the Menthol Extreme from ecigexpress.com, but didn't like that the flavor depleted from the juice after a few days. I'm going to take a look at all these suggestions. Also, does anyone know of where I can get these menthol juices closer to my town? I live in las vegas, and know that pInk spot and altcig are in town, but haven't seen a big variety of menthol.....

Hi I am in love with the vapor hut! The menthol they have is milder but has a nice smooth mint flavor. I have never been a menthol smoker but I like this particilar one. Its the best one I have had. www.thevaporhut.com

Another option that I don't think has been mentioned, or you may not want to fool with, is a "partial diy." You could purchase a bottle of tobacco concentrate, menthol concentrate, and/or a tobacco-menthol concentrate and add it just a drop at a time to the e-liq that is close but "not quite right."

Tried the menthol ice....really wasn't that mentholy to me. I know a lot of people that love it, but it just didn't hit my taste buds as well as some.... I was thinking about going the diy route, but I really dont have much space in my house to do it safely. I always have 3 kids messing up the house to all hell, so a diy setup may not be the most optimum idea. I was thinking of clearing a space in my garage, but due to the vegas heat it would be a 5 oclock news story waiting to happen!

vaporgod.com, try the arctic wolf, it is just like vicks. will really clear you up if you are having any sinus problems. also his menthol is very strong with a bit more mint taste than the arctic wolf. i would suggest going to his flavor lab and mixing the tobacco and menthol very good flavor. just don't get a high vg blend of his juice because the menthol crystals like to solidify in them.
