Menthol Help

HELP!!!!!

I'm trying e-cigs again. They're way better then they were a couple years ago!

I just bought an eGo kit from myvaporstore.com and decided that I'd go ahead and get a couple bottles of juice from them since I was already ordering. When I tried this a couple years ago I had a problem with PG so this time I got their VG blend Killa Vanilla and Icy Menthol. Not a fan. I currently smoke Blue Marlboro 72s (a mild menthol). I know that if I'm gonna completely switch I'll need a good menthol flavor. (NOT MINT!!! Why do they insist on calling it menthol when it's mint?!?)

Can someone please point me to a good VG or VG blend menthol?

I vape a ton of menthol... and most of the ones I use are pg heavy... when I want VG juices... I usually look to Vaperite and alien Visions...
The only ALL VG menthol juices I vaped were from bluemist... they were pretty good... I liked the smooth a lot... a lot of folks like the hypermint that they make...

If you want a straight-up menthol with no mint or other flavors, I'd suggest DIY... no skill involved if you buy a VG base with the desired nic from a place like wizard labs... and just add menthol drops to it...

or add menthol drops to a flavor that you think would be well complimented with it...

I would love to see a creamy menthol / no mint in 100% VG... tons of vapor and smooth...

Hi - sorry I'm not much help, as I'm the opposite - I like more mint than menthol. I've heard excellent things about Mt Baker Vapor's Exreme Ice, but I'd read the reviews to see if it's menthol or mint. They do list a menthol juice that has lots of great reviews.

Good luck to you! This was my 3rd attempt and finding the right juice made all the difference. For me, the one that made me put down the cigs for good was Peppermint Blast from HHV's, but I don't think that's what you are looking for. I'm sure others will have some great suggestions!

Holy options batman!

I have a feeling I'm in for a long road of trial and error! I didn't realize there were gonna be so many choices beyond just picking a flavor! Thanks for the site suggestions guys!

Really wish I had checked this part of the forum as well before I bought anything. I was so worried about making sure I bought a good machine I didn't even think about the juice!

This part is a LOT of trial and error - I have juice in nic strength from 24 down to 0 (flavors I like, that I have in higher nic levels, I'll also get in 0 mgs of nic to cut down for night time when I prefer less - or else I get headaches). I have pg/vg ratios in everything from 80 pg/20 vg to 70 vg/30 distilled water.... I knew I didn't want anything tobacco flavored, as I wanted to get as far away from cigs as possible - but I thought I'd love everything, especially desserty flavors. So, the first two juices I tried were butterscotch and caramel from the place I bought my kit - turns out I hated them. Butterscotch was so sticky sweet I coughed every single time I vaped!

But at the end of the day, it's so worth it - the trial and error becomes fun. You learn how to steer towards what you might like, not what you know you'll never like. The day I made my 3rd attempt, I'd had the kit and new juice, the Peppermint Blast, sitting there for a while. It was only because I didn't want to go out on a freezing cold Jersey morning to get cigs after I'd run out that I thought "huh, I'll try this until I get motivated to go...". One Vape and it was like "omg, this is SO much better than I ever expected!!" Never went out for those cigs.

One reason I love Mt. Baker is because the juice is so affordable, if I don't like a bottle, it's not a big loss - and most orders over $15, they throw in a free 15 ml sample. The downside is most have to steep for a week or two - so, you kind of have to be ahead of the game in ordering juice from them. Though, I will say, I think most of their mints/menthols are good from day 1. And you can choose all VG or 70 vg/30 distilled water from them. I know there are other vendors with great all vg juice that others can fill you in on.

It will all work out - once you find one that you are happy with, it becomes easier and more fun to experiment because you know that you always have something that you love ready to go!

I love a dash of menthol + apple
menthol by itself rules, make me feel like shaft
but greensmokes makes some unforgettable menthol carts

As said^^
do not throw your juices away let them steep they may change and become a favorite

you cannot just buy 1 kit, you have to buy everything
and then buy it again a few years from now

Vape Dudes has a great menthol called Ice Ice. I vape it all day every day. 16mg nic 50 50 mix with extra flavor and WOW! Massive loads of thick white vapor with a smooth semi sweet creamy menthol. Not minty just darn good! Halo also specializes in lots of different menthols. Mystic Menthol is super good and their True Pure Menthol.

I like the Smooth from Blue Mist, but I hate the bottles. Some work fine, but others seem like you have to squeeze forever to get the juice out. I've since switched to MBV just because the bottles and the juice are so much easier to use. I liked everything I've tried so far in the "ice" line (black and blue), and there isn't one that I've disliked so far.
If you find you just can't make the jump from smoking to vaping, I recommend the P38 from Aroma Ejuice, but ONLY if you can't make the jump. It's WTA, so it has more (possible) health concerns than "normal" ejuice, but it's hands down the best menthol I've ever had.

I'm a avid menthol fan on the hunt also for a good menthol juice. My first experience was "Winter Harvest Menthol Tobacco", its a bit too much earthy taste but the menthol hit is ok. The 2nd try at menthols was MapleLeaf vapes "Siberian Winter" and it kicks the chit out of the Winter Harvest, the menthol is real strong and cool. I'm hoping some of the other MapleLeaf Vape menthols are as good as the Siberian Winter I tried. They will have a permanent customer in me.

I'm pretty sure I'll be saving this thread and bouncing through all of the suggestions! What's the distilled water do? I'm guessing it's just a thinner? Thanks everyone! I only have one other question...how the hell do I get this nasty mint that they expected me to believe was menthol out of my tank!!!

I happen to love Extreme Ice from MBV but as everyone will say, what one person loves another might hate..

I, too, was a menthol smoker. Have tried numerous menthol juices including NETs. My God, they taste like licking a dirty ashtray! What I found to work for me is Ulta Menthol. I fill a tank about half with the Ulta and half with the unflavored nic for my taste. The closest I've come to the real thing! Plus, $1.99 shipping!

When first looking into ecigs with a friend we first tried a disposable with Vanilla menthol to no satisfaction there! Having been a Brown&Williamson brand smoker for 3 1/2 decades I was looking for a GREAT menthol not just anything tossed out there!

The one however besides being disappointed by finding candy type mints which can be a substitute at times I wasn't looking for a straight menthol either. Those can be a bit harsh at times and didn't go over well with a few others who wanted to replace menthol tobacco at least to some extent.

Alas one superb menthol came up not just another mint but a spearmint/menthol mix that has been working out quite well since everyone took to it immediately! Crystal Canyon Vapes: Arctic Ice

For three long time menthol smokers two of us B&W brand one not this was a winner out of those tried so far! Note this tried on a SmokTek VAMO with things turned up a bit as well as on every ecig so far here with favorable results each time. Over time I expect to be running across a few other menthols I will like as well while this particular has been a good replacement for analog menthols!
