New member question

Hello everyone, I'm a new member to your forum and am happy to have found this. I am really hoping that some one can help me. I currently smoke kool 100 cigarettes but have also been vaping for about a year now doing my best to get totally away from my regular cigarettes. My issue is that I have tried probably 30 plus different juices from many different venders. I cannot find a juice that come remotely close to my brand of cigarettes. Is there anyone out there that is a former Kool brand smoker that has found juice that a juice that tasted like Kools. I so badly want away from smoking regular cigs but keep going back because I cannot find a juice that is satisfying my urge for what my Kools taste like. Sorry to go on so long but your help would be a godsend for me. I want the smell off me, my, house, dogs, everything but mostly just don't want to smoke reg cigs anymore.
Thank you so much in advance to anyone willing to offer assistance.
Catherine in Nevada

As a formal menthol smoker myself, I sympathize, Kercath! Unfortunately, NOTHING tastes like a burning menthol cigarette. On the plus side, after about six months of vaping all kinds of bakery/menthol/fuit flavors, I found that I really hate the taste of a real cigarette, now!

Suggestion: Menthol the way it's SUPPOSED to be in a cigarette. It's in the Mint section of ECBlends, (ecblendflavors.com) and it's called Perilous Mint. It's menthol on steroids!!, lol, and it leaves your mouth so damn minty fresh, that it makes a 'menthol' cigarette taste pretty lame. Their juice is really affordable, too! Try a little 5 ml of Perilous Mint (or Creme de Menthe if you want something menthol but less intense).

I smoke tobacco flavored vape. You likely won't find one but taste buds will adapt to the new taste. Now I mix fruit flavors in with the tobacco. Sounds to me like you may not have a proper system. I smoked a few cigarettes a day for 3 or 4 months when I had Eco-c's. Never intended on quiting as I just wanted to cut down from 50 a day and smoked for 42 years. Bought a MVP and it came with a Iclear30 and just never had another smoke since the minute I bought it. As a matter of fact when I drove home and hour drive from buying it I became ill from to much smoke and nicotine. My workers smoke in my truck and I am working along smokers everyday and it never even boths me now. Big clouds help. :vapor:

I was a menthol smoker too. PAD for 25+ years. It took me forever to find a juice that I liked, partly because I'm sensitive to certain flavors, and partly because I wanted something that tasted and felt like a menthol cigarette. Unfortunately there is nothing that tastes like a menthol analog (I've tried so many and they all tasted like the rear end of roadkill to me), but there are some great mint/menthol flavors that helped me quit analogs. Betamorphs's Bliss Blend is one of my fave's. It's a serious blast of spearmint and menthol- not for the faint of heart for sure! It's sinus clearing and insane! My main vape right now is Kringle's Curse from Halo - an icy peppermint, or DoubleMint from TKO, a spearmint/peppermint blend with a cool finish.

Oooo, I almost forgot. Spice Drops from Hoosier E-Cig - the taste of those awesome spice drops I always get for Christmas, in a vape! Not as intense as a lot of menthols out there, but a really amazing blend of wintergreen & spearmint with the perfect touch of sweetness.

With choices like these out here, those Marlboro Menthols can kiss my (_!_) Never again!

Welcome... its now YOUR forum too.:) If its menthol you're after, then Mr. E Liquids makes the best one. It contains NO mint. I never smoked a menthol cigarette that had MINT in it. I smoked menthol for 58 years and never would have had any of them contained mint because I really, really, dislike mint. If you've found a tobacco you like, just add Mr E Liquids menthol to it. Also, there's a flavoring that has NO flavor and just delivers a cool sensation. Its called Koolada and I've found that adding that to my menthol tobaccos give more of that menthol cigarette feel. You can get it at ecigexpress.
 
I smoked salem lights and Newports for over 20yr after rwp weeks of vaping about ten different types of e juice i just gave up on trying to find one that taste like my old smokes. I bought a bunch of flavors and just started mixing my own flavors. I tried to smoke a Newport the other night and tossed it after a few puffs i now prefer my vape. Just toss the kools and mix your own juice
 
Thank you for getting back to me. To have been able to cut out all those cigs is an amazing story in its self. Congratulations. I have to admit I have to look up the meaning of some of the e-cig brands you have and do use. I started out with the ego-x's, no likely. Then to the ego twists they were ok for a short time but no matter what tops (I know wrong word) please forgive. Now I'm using my who' your daddy, the new APV variable voltage. Love the digital stuff so I have more control. Not sure the type of tank as hubby bought it foe me while I was in hospital. I get down there as soon as able to drive myself or just try to figure out what type would be best. If you have any ideas please share. What ever is have going on now doesn't come close to giving me to vapor I like and our local ecig store has not so good juices hence my quests to find a great place to order.
Thank you so much for your help and again congrats. Catherine

Kercath- Welcome to the forum. I smoked kool (filter kings) for 42 years, 2 pad. I thought I wanted to replace them with exact vape taste. For me, even the tobacco flavors were too strong tobacco. You have to understand, kools didn't have any flavor, so when I started testing tobacco with menthol juice, it was strange and didn't like it. Guy at the b&m said to try a peppermint, spearmint or wintergreen. I picked the peppermint with 24mg nic. I'm down to 18mg now and have branched off into other flavors. But my wake up, every day is still peppermint.
I don't think you can replicate a cig taste. I didn't want to as this was a new means of nic delivery. Everything from how you inhale to how you fiddle with mechanics is different. Which for me is great because I don't have time for a smoke!

You wont be able to find a tobacco flavor that matches your old cigarette because it lacks the carcinogens that is part of that flavor. What worked for me was to move away from tobacco flavors and concentrate on new ecig flavors. Halo cool mist is a pretty good menthol to have on hand. And so is liqua menthol. I am always stocked in these two flavors when i feel like i just want that cigarette. I smoked newport for twenty four years. My adv currently is mistereliquid neptune, pure michigan, dime piece, myster e, none are menthol. Which was surprising for me. I never thought id vape a non menthol, but find i prefer fruity non menthol flavors.

Once i stopped trying to replace the newport flavor i had better luck in finding my all day vapes.

But from my experience, liqua menthol was the closest to a menthol cigarette. I bought mine from fasttech.
