Thanks for the description, it helps.
Is Georgia Ice Storm a peach flavor?

The Ice Menthol is more of a straight menthol, not minty, flavor IMO.

Anyone interested in fruit/menthol combos should try some AltLiquid (altsmoke private label) flavors like Georgia Ice Storm, Apple Frost and other fruit/menthol flavors. I was a former menthol smoker and quickly moved to fruit flavors. When I have taste bud issues, I go to Georgia Ice Storm and it works its magic, plus it is really tasty.

AH - The elusive "True MENTHOL" . . . ;)

All I will say, I've been at this over a year and still have not found one . . . :evil:

So Until that happens - I am still onlpart timetime vapor . .

AND - Although - I am still trying and a few other vendors are working with "Me" on developing "Uncle's True Menthol tobacco" (Similar to a Kool Analog) . . .:D

Might I be so bold to suggest you do a search a search of the old "Official Smokeless Image" Thread using the word "Menthol" so many wonderful people came up with suggestions and referrals too . . . It might help you find what "You" are looking for . . . Just a thought . . .

BTW: I have found an "UN-Sweetened" Black Licorice flavor that I add some "Menthol Crystals" to that helps "Me" on occasion . . . NICE ! ! !

Oh WAIT - WARNING - if You get "Menthol Crystals" to add to other flavors - BE CAREFUL - VERY CAREFUL - Only 2-3 drops in a cartomizer at the most or You will be picking up your lungs and yourself off the floor :facepalm: . . .
Just sayin' from experience - happen a couple of times till I learned my lesson . . . :lol: :lol: :lol:

OK Trichman, based on your glowing recommendation ;) I just ordered some Georgia Ice Storm. Strawberry/Peach/Menthol sounds intriguing. I didn't realize that place was a twin sister of SI, even down to how the website works. Would be nice if they'd share their juice stock too so I could just order it from here :)

The same person that steered me here also told me Alt Smoke had top shelf juices but not being one to post other suppliers products here on SIs Forum I have kept quiet. Since the door is already open if you like a great tobacco taste in your vape their American 55 in 60/40 is one of my favorites and has been since I came to the ECF. I'm on my 3rd 30ml bottle and plan on getting another when this one is half gone. I have tried a few of their fruity stuff but for now it's not for me, maybe after I'm a few months down the road. They do mix their own at least the High Caliber Easy Select Brand but they have some of the china stuff as well with names very similar to SI...Hmmm. However you will find their prices to be a bit higher for the china stuff.

Imagine is cool with us talking about that place, since they do sell Volt products too. Only thing I'm concerned about is the PG/VG ratios. I am perfectly happy with 90/10 and 80/20 but the 60/40 and 50/50 I worry might not play nicely with my cartos. I haven't yet come over to the dark side of using CEs, and my only clearo finally pooped out. But if not, then I'll set these aside until the new & improved CEs are here.

Since we are being honest here the 60/40 is a little thinner and vapes better in the Clearos and they tend to go longer without needing to be cleaned. If you load your cartos using Mr. Outlaws centrifugal force method you need to spin it a lot slower as it will pass through the filler much easier and leak out but I don't use the cartos anymore and rather like the 60/40 in the Clearomizers. YMMV Overall I still buy more from SI just because the have a better selection of hardware and I like the Desert Joe. I am working on making something similar using a flavor by the same name from yet another supplier and that is going well. This has become as much of a hobby as it has a way to quit analogs, Bonus! I have found when you DIY you have to keep the nicotine down around 6mg because you end up sampling so much it would make your head spin at 18 or 24 but it's all good.

So I bought a whole bunch of different flavors from a couple of other sites based on what many of you have said. Thanks! I can't mix anything yet because all I got are cartos, not for long tho. :p

I've dripped a couple and they're pretty good. I can't wait to try them out in a ce3. Which leads me to my next question. I think I read somewhere that citrus type juices can cause problems. Has anybody had any problems with fruity menthols in ce3/clearos?

On a side note, I accidently ordered a bottle of 50/50. Is there anything I need to know about that mix?

Just got some liquid yesterday. My taste buds are still not sure what they are tasting but it is getting better. I got some black cherry with menthol. I use ce3s only and have been through 2 without troubles, a 30/70 mix. I loaded up another last night with 50/50 strawberry and no issues, no menthol in it was a freebie.

No issues from anything with the ce3s so far except tinkering with one and cracking the plastic because i squeezed it too hard.

That's good to know. I got a lemon & a cola and they're good (at least when I drip), the menthol part is quite a bit stronger.
