Peppermint Help

[Aheadatime]

Hey guys,

I mix for a few friends of mine who I've converted to vaping, and recently a friend of mine's father has converted mostly to vaping (4-6 cigs a day from 30 ). He's vaping these disposables and prefers the menthol blend, as he was a menthol smoker. Tobaccos, fruits, desserts, none of them strike his fancy and he tells me the disposables are doing it for him right now.

Well I helped his son get him a proper set up (beginner stuff.. Vision Spinner 1300, Aspire BDC, etc.) and I figured I'd whip up 100mL of the menthol he was vaping, so I asked him if I could take a hit to remember the taste. It wasn't exactly menthol.. it was a cool sort of sweet peppermint flavor. There was definitely the coolness in there associated with menthol, but that sweet peppermint background surprised me a bit, as I was expecting straight menthol.

Keep in mind this is a disposable, so they're probably using 1-2 flavors max and they're probably buying in bulk from TFA or FW or something. Since all of the menthols I've ever mixed were a simple hybrid of menthol and koolada, I figured I'd ask the community. Anybody have any suggestions for a sweet pepperminty menthol flavor?

TFA's Peppermint, Wintergreen, Menthol and Koolada are excellent to play around with at various percentages. You can use EM, other sweeteners or even creams to sweeten things up.

My favorite so far is:

3% TFA Wintergreen or Peppermint
3% TFA Menthol
5% TFA Koolada
1% TFA Cotton Candy {EM}

I sometimes go even higher with the Koolada but I love the cold effect it gives. Good stuff! This recipe is not crazy sweet but enough for me. Hope this helps!

Thanks guys. Will give the TFA and FA peppermints a try and see where that takes me.

I make up a recipe for a former menthol smoker.

Triple Mint (All TFA)
Mint Candy 4%
Peppermint 4%
Creme De Mint 4%

I think it's pretty good and I'm not even a mint person.

Cheers,
Steve

The very best (and really, the only) sweet peppermint with just a bit of coolness: Flavor West Candy Cane. At 8-10% will match a common peppermint flavor found in gas-station disposable cigs. Or 12-15% plus 1 drop of Koolada per 5ml or so equals Halo's Kringle's Curse.

Other peppermint flavorings are less sweet, or have menthol, or they're creamy, or they have spearmint, etc. Some can be doctored with additives to give a similar flavor, but the FW is simplest and still the best flavor.

Ordered TFA Peppermint and Mint Candy (already own all their other menthols), as well as FW Candy Cane. Thanks for the suggestions guys, can't wait to mix some of these recipes up.
