Hey all,
I think I am a convert! I just got my e-cig yesterday; its a red dragon and I have a couple of questions. Please forgive my ignorance as I said brand new to the experience...

1 - Is there anyone out there that can recommend an e-juice that has a taste comparable the the Marlboro Menthol lights I smoked up till now?

2 - Are there aftermarket cartridges that are made for the red dragon? The ones I see online seem to be all DSE product line.

3 - Can anyone recommend a nicotine level? I'm was planning on just trying various levels but I started with the high nic carts and they seem a bit much.

Thanks for all your help!!!

If you smoked lights, you may want something around 12-16 mg, I smoked Camel Crush's/newports, and found I like around the 18-24 MG nicotine levels. Also its noted that your not gonna really find something that tastes exactly like regular cigarettes, although you can find a lot of strong menthols. You can also buy menthol crystals for really cheap and crush them to add stronger menthol flavor to any of your juices. I found I dislike tobacco flavored e-juice, besides maybe ry4, so you would need to check around. I have heard good reviews of Tasty Vapor's tobacco, and tobacco-menthol flavors, and supposedly TV's tobacco is closer to the real thing. What I'm using right now is a lemon-lime menthol blend(also added a few of my own menthol crystals) from TV that I really like. Also heard really good reviews of Nhalers menthol, but haven't tried it. Most menthol from various suppliers I've tried does have a mint taste also, it really depends on what you want, and if you can afford it I would suggest trying a few things from different vendors.

I too smoked marlboro menthol lights (and occasionally regular menthol or smooth), and personally I think the straight menthol is the best way to go, rather than looking for the tobacco flavor. Of course, when I first started I refilled menthol into the "marlboro" carts that came with my ecig and this did get me over the hump, but I eventually got tired of it.

I like dekang's menthol as it's just slightly sweet, but I liked it even better when I added some Lorann's Creme de Menthe flavoring (a "candy oil") which did sweeten it a little further, but also added quite a bit of body, and even a little creaminess to the flavor.

I've got some tobacco absolute on the way that I'm hoping to mix up with some other flavors, so my opinion on the perfect menthol might change...

I would suggest that you keep a very open mind when it comes to flavors. Why? you currently smoke marlboro menthol lights so let me ask you this? if you could eat a piece of chocolate cake or drink your favorite drink or smell your favorite smell and get the same feeling that you get from your cigarette which would you choose? This is what the world of vaping is going to open up to you. You no longer are limited by nasty tobacco. I know you dont realize it yet but after a few days, weeks of vaping you will realize that cigarettes and tobacco were nasty.

Have fun and enjoy your new product !!

I agree. I bought a bunch of methol tobacco flavors when I bought my first ecig, thinking that that's what I would most want to vape, something that tasted just like the menthol cigarettes I smoked.

Now those flavors are just sitting unused, as I realized I never really did LIKE the taste of cigarettes, so why continue to vape that flavor.

Now I've got Pineapple, Cherry, Guava, Forest Fruit, etc. So many new flavors to play with and enjoy. Having given up cigarettes, variety is the spice of life! :D

i'd also have to say just stick with the straight menthols. you taste that mostly with cigs like marlboro menthols and such. and i can second the motion about your tastes changing. i do still stick with menthols, but for instance there was one that i tried that was to simulate marlboro menthols, a menthol tobacco mix... i liked it. but by the time i had tried a couple things, week or so went by, and i had ordered and waited for more of it. it was nasty. lol. if you're in it for the menthol, just get the menthol. and like they said, try little bottles and save some for when your tastebuds come back so you can try it again before you order more. but in the end, this stuff isn't very expensive you probably won't have lost much if you have a bottle you don't use. you can empty it out and use it to mix your own combo of flavors too!

I just got a order in from strictlyEjuice.com for some liquids and one was (Marl Menthol) flavor (I ordered a 3ml sample). I must say that it is very close to what you may be looking for and on the site they have 3ml sample bottles to try for a decent price. I must say i was pleased with there shipping and eliquid juice~

thats was my brand too! After massive trial and error, I found NHaler's NuPort to be the closet match! Stricktlyejuice has maarlboro menthol juice but it tastes the same as menthol to me:confused:

Before trying Nhalers NuPort, I used marlboro 18mg (4/5ths) and (1/5) menthol. It achieved the flavor pretty well, but after trying nhalers menthols I havent gone back! :)
