ok - so I'll make the 1st "I don't like SMILIN Menthol" post (in this thread, at least).
I'll start by saying I don't drink coffee - so that might be the deciding factor here.
But I've tried the following Menthols (from V4L): Cool, Cowboy, Newport, Spirit, and SMILIN. I like the SMILIN the least. To me it tastes like a little menthol and a lot of mint and coffee. I LOVE straight mint (and straight spearmint), and I like all the other menthols, but I don't like SMILIN. Must be the coffee flavor that I don't like...
Taste is sooo subjective... it amazes me.
Thats funny because I DO NOT like coffee but LOVE smilin menthol. Taste is so subjective and strange.
