Just my opinion--- Coolmist is the strongest of the menthols; Menthol Ice has an icy bite to it (a little like double mint gum), but is very refreshing; Truepure is the most subtle of the menthols. Truepure has been and remains my favorite. Coolmist used to be #2, but now Menthol Ice is. They are all different in flavor, but they have the great Halo base.
I love Menthol, but I don't like to vape mints, wintergreen, spearmint or peppermint, just menthol.
So when player30 says,
"Menthol Ice has an icy bite to it (a little like double mint gum)"
I don't think Menthol I think Mints!
Is there any minty flavour in any of Halo's Menthols?
Is the extra cool in Menthol Ice perhaps not a mint like in DoubleMint Gum but a Koolada (menthyl methyl lactate)?
The doublemint gum gum reference has me confused.
I like Strong Menthol with a very slight touch of sweetness (I can add drops Ethol Maltol myself if needed)
I need some help before I finish my next order, Thanks!

3 days later and no one here or Halo has helped to clear up the Mint question for Halo Menthols. 
??
On Halo's site the Menthol Ice shows a mint leaf in the Ice Cubes. This would help back up player30's statement of being a little like Double Mint gum.
TruePure sounds like it is too subtle of a menthol flavor for me so I ordered a bottle of CoolMist. Then I saw on the Halo Facebook page that CoolMist has a mint to it. If that's true I won't vape it and just wasted money.
I give up!
I will not order any more menthols from Halo due to a lack of descriptions or the similarity of menthol descriptions, lack of product support on these forums and the conflicting reports from customers. Because of the conflicting reports across websites, Halo is the only one I could trust to clear this up. I will stick to Tribeca and Torque56 orders only.

Hi CityLights/Kemosbabe,
Our menthols are all fairly similar, with top notes that are difficult to describe. None of them offer an overwhelming mint flavor. I honestly do not know how to accurately describe the flavors, as they don't taste like anyone flavor in particular. If they were chocolate menthol, for example, they would be easy to describe. Like all of our flavors, they are unique and do not have any distinguishable flavor characteristic.
I agree we have not been as supportive on this forum as we can, and are working to get that resolved. We are strapped right now with our huge growth, and have a dedicated Forum employee starting next week. This should give our subforum the attention it deserves.

Thanks for your attention, Johnny. I appreciate everyones input.
Halo juices are excellent. Prime and Tribeca are my favorites. My gf likes menthol so i was trying to see if she'll enjoy Halo as much as I do.

Thank You Johnny, I tried some True Pure at a vape meet. It was excellent!! ..but just not enough Menthol for me. I'll wait until I run into some Menthol Ice at a meet someday before I decide to order some. Or maybe the 30ml of CoolMist I ordered wil be good. I want to get away from this China ingredients Menthol I've been vaping. Good and strong, but it's not a North American liquid.
Maybe someone can answer this for me. I really like Prime and one of the others that was in the sample tin. I can't read the name on the other one! It is either Tribeca or Torque 56. Unfortunately I only kept the bottles of the two I liked, or I could have read the other one and known what this one is. So does anyone have an opinion as to which one of those two would be most similar to Prime?
Prime is almost clear, Torque is a little darker (yellowish), and Tribeca is a beautiful golden color. all the liquids are really nice looking as a matter of fact. it would be nice if the bottles had less labeling so Halo could show off its stellar product! the packaging is too modest
Kemosabe, how did those menthol's go for the gf?
My wife also likes a tobacco menthol and I've been searching for her.

skelley, The newest flavor halo has just put out is a tobacco menthol--HX3. She might want to give that a try.
i got the sample pack so the only one she got was the ice i believe. she liked it but wasnt crazy about it. i need to let her try it again in a different cartomizer. i dont think she got the full experience.
I called my buddy, he's into menthol and hasn't tried the new hx3 yet (not sure if it's menthol), but said it sounds like vaporheads Tobacco Europe (VT3) which he said is a 'really' good tobacco type.
Taste is subjective, but he only liked the cool mist.
He didn't care for the ice either and thought the pure was a toned down ice.
Just his views and something to think about.
BTW, if you find that 'perfect' menthol give me a shout

A quick response now and I will try to comment more later.
Menthol Ice (MI) was the first halo menthol juice that I tried and I really liked it from the beginning. I smoked Marlboro menthol golds in the analogs for 15 yrs. Same menthol flavor as the analog with out the tobacco taste.
When vaping MI I think it is a straight menthol blast. The intensity of the blast is going to depend on your equipment. With Mega LR dual coil Carts and a fully charged 1100 mAh battery, it can be intense. with smaller carts and cartos it is just very nice.
I have bought 4 30 ml bottles of MI and like it as an all day vape some days.
I will retry Coolmist and truepure again in the next couple of days and try to describe those. I like them both, but can't describe the subtle extra's beside menthol that are in juice.
Another favorite of mine is the Tiki. When I first tried it in the sample kit I received, I wasn't too impressed. But after a few days, it became another favorite. I am sitting here vaping it now, but cannot really describe the flavor. Just very good.
I don't care for the some of the tobacco juices.

I use the Menthol Ice as my all day vape, it has a great inhale that feels cold on the back of the throat then a smooth I want to say vanilla mint or fruit lol can't really put a exact flavor on it type exhale combined with a whole throat coolness to it, I love it though.
Not a fan of the Coolmist or the True pure, to me the TP taste like vicks vapor rub and the coolmist has a taste like dry freezer burn to it lol.
I'm liking the new HX3, has a great flavor and just goes down smooth. Can see this being an all day vape, going to give the free sample bottle a week to steep then puff on it this weekend.
Taste is very subjective though and I would suggest you order some samples that you think you would like, the worst that can happen is that you don't like them. I try to give the ones I don't like away or stick them on the eww shelf, cherry dr pepper and mt dew what was I thinking, to try again in a few months if nobody wants em. Never know untill you try them all yourself lol I have been trying different flavors like mad the last few weeks, only been vaping around a month. Keeping the USPS guys and gals busy with all the little boxes I keep getting almost everyday

Crap, I ordered the tobacco sample pack instead of the variety pack, oh well, I also forgot to grab HX3 also.
Fingers crossed they send it as a free sample. Really want to try it.
If not, I'll get it on the next order.
I have some VT3 here to see if it's similar, but haven't tried it as I want to compare them together.
My mini chinatube arrives today and I don't think I'll be able to put it off.....lol.

I've only tried Menthol Ice, but I thought it was a genuine menthol flavor, not the spearmint "menthol" I've gotten from other vendors. I thought it was fairly strong.
Tiki Juice is like a sweet vanilla pipe tobacco with menthol added. I like it a lot as well.
Both of these are all day vapes for me, but I don't like Halo's tobacco flavors and not a big fan of Malibu, either. Haven't tried TruePure or CoolMist.
