Has anyone else tried this yet? I just got it and nearly threw up it tasted so bad. So, instead of tossing it, i went to the grocery store and bought some peppermint extract. I was wondering how safe it would be to inhale this stuff after adding it to the JC stuff. The ingredients are as follows: alcohol, water, natural & artificial flavors, and PG. Any thoughts? :confused:

    I'm still waiting on even a shipping confirmation from JC on an order placed a week+ ago, so can't comment on their taste (just non responsiveness to emails :-/ )

    Most people adding flavorings prefer to go for the natural extracts only (no 'artificial flavors')..Loranns says it's all natural: (middle of page)

    I tried the arctic mink in their sample case. Glad to hear you don't like it either, since that means I can probably find something else that's good. To me it tastes too strong and chalky. Looking for a good menthol light with very little tobacco taste.

    New at this. Only 1 week. Had only three analogs yesterday, a 50 year low. ( Down from 30 a day.) These things are a miracle.

    I was considering getting this for my first e-cig, as I am looking for something similar to Marlboro Smooth's.

    Anyone have any suggestions for a favor like that? A chocolate mint?

    Oy, good luck! I am not a fan of the choc mint...or JC mint..start off getting tiny bottles here and there- or else you end up with countless big bottles of stuff you wont use.... and please remember that none of us have found a true Marlboro-anything flavor...I guess without the thousands of additives tobacco just taste like tobacco and not Marlboro.
    I do not like JC juice in general. I am very picky I guess. :D

    Yea, Arctic Mink sucks, but Arctic Mint is ok. Taste is such a subjective subject that personal opinions are generally useless. I like JC juices. They are lighter on flavor than some, but perform well in my devices. I particularly like the green juices.


    Breakfastchef, I am :( , I have been trying since September 2008 to get some JC strawbery to turn green.

    I tried the A Mint and it was not minnty enough for me but that is subjective. My favorate is Tennenesse Cured.

    Here. what I'd suggest. Get a pack of Camel Snus Frost, put a few drops of your JC juice on it and squeeze it out and then try vaporizing that.

    I'm having trouble quitting, but recently read a thread on disolving snus in PG. I disolved mine, Camel Mellow, in water and used glycerine. I tried the end product today and didn't look for a cigarette until now while I'm cleaning the atomizers.

    (Since the solution was dark, I thought it might leave more residue, so I did an alcohol soak, coke soak, hot water soak... now to blow dry to prevent rust.)

    Try the Camel Frost, it has a nice flavor and you probably could salvage the whole bottle with just one pouch of the frost. Try a small sample 1st and see if you like it.

    Best of luck with whatever you decide!

    (BTW. TropicalBob posted in a thread that some of the bad stuff is in some of the snuses. I don't know if that matters with such a small quantity. But, I thought I should mention it.)

    I am not a menthol person exactly. But the one bottle that I got of the JC I got the Original Tobacco. TBH, I like it better than cigarettes. Seriously my PV is rarely out of my hands, and when it isnt in my hands it is in my back pocket because I am walking around, or it is between my breasts (shush guys). When I sleep it is at the foot of my bed.
    But I am one of those people who are never happy so I have 3 bottles coming to me though a different vendor. We will see how those go.
