I just bought Liberty Flights' Smooth Menthol - 18mg VG.

Wow. If anybody has ever smoked mint shisha then this is almost exactly like it - which is what I was looking for (I don't smoke menthol cigs generally). I don't think I could put it more eloquently than the user reviews on the site:

OMG ..... Smooth? As in smooth's out you ariways or smooths off the hair on your lips!! Bloody hell this stuff is seriously Menthol, be warned, if you vape this at 6v, you will not be able to speak for an hour!! It was like being thrown into a -40 freezer and inhaling!! I thought my vocal cords had actually frozen up!! BE WARNED!!

Wow!!! dripped a couple of drops to test and almost blew my head off. If you could get crack menthol this is it. Where the smooth comes from I don't know. If you like your mint strong buy this, I mixed it down with some spearmint though

:D If it's throat hit you're craving, then by God, this is the stuff.

I have all 3 of Halo's menthols and the first that I tried that was highly recommended was the Menthol Ice. Being my first menthol back when I first started vaping, I was looking for something subtle as I smoked B&H Deluxe Ultra Lights menthol, which I found smooth but barely menthol tasting when compared to other menthol analogs like Salem Lights and was less harsh (at least to me) then Newports. The Menthol Ice was pretty subtle, barely sweet, and had a hint of vanilla on exhale.

However when I tried Halo's Truepure, I took to that right away. I suppose the Truepure has a sweetish taste with the vanilla exhale that I found was very nice for vaping (but that I had hating when smoking). Could be that manner of delivery that makes the difference (vaping vs smoking).

I finally got their Cool Mist back in July and found that a bit different from the other 2 (more menthol-eucalyptus menthol, although very mild and with the hint of vanilla) but went right back to the Truepure.

I have some (what I assume to be) Dekang menthols from Cignot that I haven't tried yet but I figured I would save those if I ever run out of everything else.

The one thing about Halo juices is that they have some sort of proprietary combo of PG/VG and probably something else (maybe PEG and/or other alcohol) that produces a very smooth vape and a good amount of vapor - and this with a moderately thin juice (where you'd expect much thicker with a higher VG to get the clouds of vapor that Halo juice can produce). I think it's been pretty unanimous that people have wished for Halo to sell in smaller quantities (they did send me some free Freedom in smaller bottles so I think it's coming for the rest)...

I have some VB Arctic Ice that I haven't tried yet so eventually I'll give that a shot too. Have considered minimalist DIY for menthol by getting a small bag of menthol crystals just for the heck of it. I had ordered some Halo Fusion (unflavored) 24 mg juice to have around and could actually make my own menthol if I do decide to buy some crystals.
