Menthol

[Tumbleweed4829]

I am probably looking for something that does not exsist with e-smoking but is there any menthol that actually tastes like menthol? I guess it is the minty feeling on the throat that I'm missing. I am a menthol smoker and all the carts and e-liquids taste to me like a normal cigarette (the harsh feeling). I guess only menthol smokers would get what I'm talking about because I still want the throat hit but a minty throat hit lol. Anyway; is there any carts or e-liquids that are a Strong menthol that will give me that feeling or am I just kidding myself?

I can't find it either, Tumbleweed. I've tried every brand of cartridges and e-liquids, but nothing quite fills the bill. There are some nice mint flavors, but they really don't deliver the same sensation. Let me know if you find something that works for you.

I have tried johnson creek artic mint and it isn't that strong of a taste.

Tumble,

It maybe hard to totally replicate the menthol flavor. I think the major part of the menthol flavor in real cigs is things like ammonia and other additives.

How about esmoking with a vics cough drop in your mouth? haha

Tried that too.....bought a carton of 20 boxes on Amazon. It only helps a little.

windblown you just cant find ya menthol hit can ya dude

 

[vapors]

actually vics inhalers would work, they almost kinda like our cartridges I think. Like soaked fibers. How about cutting one open putting it in the mouth side of the cart?

Not yet, but I'm working on it.

Even bought some of the menthol crystals that Dr. Loi suggested.

Withdrawing from nicotine was easy compared to withdrawing from menthol!

Now there's something I hadn't thought of! Hmmmm.......



Update:
Okay, well that was a dismal failure. When I cut into the inhaler, the whole thing jumped off the cutting board and went flying across the room. Whatever was inside disappeared and I can't find it anywhere.

- Janty is getting new mint flavor. I hope that's more like mint then there previous one, didn't like that at all.

- You could take a too weak mint you have, and add a few drops of QS (QuitSmoking) from e-Cig in with that. This QS gives a very strong taste that is mainly menthol-like, just one or two drops will allready be very noticable.


And as for ready-made liquids or carts: I have not been able to find anything like menthol-taste with any of them either.

Thanks for the suggestion, Katink! I intended to order some QS liquid the last time I placed an order from e-cig, but forgot to include it.

And, BTW, I found the insert from the Vicks inhaler, but it didn't work out too well. I had better luck with the inserts from T-Bob's menthol EZ-Quit cigarettes. A kickin' menthol e-liquid would be the ticket!

Thanks everyone for all the ideas! I have tried mints and although it helps a little it still is not the same. I also have tired breath spray and again it helps but not the same. Windblown let me know what you think about the QS liquid. Wow we sure will try anything to help our addiction won't we? hehehe

I like the E-Puffer (Canada) mint cartridges - I like a really really minty cool effect and theirs pretty much does the trick. I just wish their e-cig produced more vapor, but it's satisfactory. I am thinking of ordering a bottle of their mint e-liquid. But they are expensive. I live in Ohio which is just a hop, skip and a jump from Canada, but it sure takes a long time for shipments to get to me. I guess they have to go through customs or something.

I was hoping Bickford's peppermint extract would work, but it's kind of weak.

What about possibly putting a couple fresh mint leaves in a thing of e liquid for a couple of days. I was thinking about trying that myself.

Tumble, I was a menthol smoker too. I got nothing.

But I do use Jane's 0 nicotine menthol to "season" my carts so that's been keeping me satisfied...and not missing the menthol cigs so much.

 

[Tumbleweed4829]

I thought I was willing to try anything but epuffer liquid is ridiculously expensive!!! Ok I'll try everyone elses ideas first. Karen, dumb question.....who is Jane?
