looking to get my oldest daughter vaping , she smokes newports , and wants something that would taste like them, any suggestions ?

I have been looking since day one of vaping but at the vapor room they have some good ones currently my advs. Port menthol is great but their AC menthol feels more like a Menthol analog it has a heavier tobacco base with a nice nasal clearing menthol but the port menthol has the menthol flavor more similar to newports.

TVR menthol I heard is good from them too I haven't tried it yet. Later today I am hoping to order after me and the wife go over budgeting. Once I get it and try it I will let you know best of luck on the menthol search. Others may know better ones.

ECBlends has a flavor called "New Harbor" which I assume is supposed to be like newports. Not my kind of vape, but it definitely has a resemblance.

I'll share what I learned about menthol. about two years ago I bought an ounce of pure menthol crystals. ( 4 or 5 bucks I think)
They dissolve readily in any PG/VG mixture. With a little experimentation you can get anywhere from a hint of menthol to lip numbing cold. And after two years, I still have about half of the crystals left over. I've had no need to price menthol juices as I expect that adding your own crystals is cheaper in the long run.

Really? Any good tobacco mixtures? I may look into that.
 
I bought a bunch of menthol crystals and disolved them in PG as well. So if I want menthol I just add a couple drops to a 10ml bottle. I also bought a bottle of koolada which gives that coolness without the menthol flavor.

One thing you try is what I did, get a bunch of NET juices from net.com and mix them to the blend that comes in the cigarettes you smoked (Camels are 50~60% Turkish, 20~30% Burley, and the rest Virginia for example). Add menthol/koolada to desired level. A drop of MTS Vape Wizard (helps everything blend), Flash (Tobacco Throat Hit), and Dirty Neutral Base (gives it a little of that 'cigarette' feel/taste/smell). I let it sit for a day or two after mixing so it all blends.

I get the NETs in juice instead of pure extract form since I vape at low nic already and adding the 10 drops of other stuff I do only drops it from 6 to 5.7mg.

Although I was a menthol smoker for many years, I didn't start out with menthol vapes, fearing that they would be a disappointment when I compared them to my menthol cigarettes.

And then on a whim, I decided to try a couple out.

I tried Adam Bomb's "Chillaxin". Satisfying and minty enough. I thought this is as high as the bar could go for menthol. Again, was just expecting to be disappointed.

Then tried White Walker from Seduce Juice. And holy hell, this stuff is the closest thing I've been able to find that actually hits like a cigarette. It's definitely minty, but it's more than just a regular throat it. The hit from it just makes your brain say "Yes, that's what I've been missing since you put down the cigs".

Seduce juice keeps having these sales for 118ml bottles for $25. I've got 2 of them. Hopefully will last me a while.

I tried it first from Giant Vapes. Only $13 for a 30ml bottle and free shipping. But as quickly as I was blowing through a 30ml bottle, I went straight to Seduce Juice and found it in larger quantities. You can even get the Goliath size of any juice (750ml!!!). But I haven't gotten that far yet. :)

I have been buying/making/vaping Menthols for 4 years now... and I'd love to see this thread survive.

Straight-up menthols, minty menthols, tobacco menthols and method added to fruity or sweet juices... many ways to have it...

I'll start by listing a few of the "most talked about" menthols.... as far as I have noticed over the past 4 years...

Halo
VaporGod - Arctic Wolf
Goodejuice - ice cold menthol
Mr. e-liquid's ice line
mt. baker's thug juice (fruity)
Vaportalk - smoothal (formerly prothol)

These are some of the ones I have heard the most chatter and hype about over the past several years... on ECF.

My personal Favorites/Recommendations:

Check out goodejuice... because they have 3 completely different in-house lines of juice.... so you can try a Lab menthol like emerald square which is very similar to Halo's or TW's patriot line.
They have a fresh tobacco line which can be mentholated... like wrangler light with menthol...
and they have their own in-house juice... ice cold menthol and two others...

I am a fan of emerald square and ice cold menthol and the wrangler light with menthol.

I am fan of all Halo menthols.

I am a fan of Totally Wicked Menthols... in particular the patriot line.... similar to Halo and GEJ Lab.

.......


Now, my favorite... the newest WINNER... the one that takes the cake for me is ATONEMENT liquid. They are based in California... they only have 8 juices and they are ALL menthol... their base is so clean and has no funky aftertaste... they have subtle flavors mixed in... Menthol is still dominate... but they have a pomegranate, tropical, strawberry, cherry etc... if you love menthol, I strongly suggest you try these guys. I think they are ahead of the game with menthol. Mystical Menthol is the basic no flavor menthol...


one of my other favorite mentholated juices is POLAR BEAR from steam monkey - it's a tobacco, banana cookie type kind of deal... weird, but amazing....

(TBL) The best damn e-liquid is another newer company that does really well mixing fruit with menthol... very icy, I buy a lot from them....

Thanks Tango, I want this thread to live to so let's keep bumping it with reviews, recommendations, recipes, or questions. As I said too this isn't for just exclusive menthol vapers part timers, or people who just know of good menthols, even if someone's looking for a friend or family. I feel like when it comes to menthol on ECF it's scattered all over I want one go to spot and I am sure it's not just me. We can really help a lot of vapers with this so as I said keep posting.

On another note one day I will have to try menthol fruit flavors I actually read from your menthol thread as weird as it sounds it's good.

Keep the post coming everyone!

Only menthol I have bought so far is by Faze at a gas station. It was surprisingly good. Some sweetness. Wife likes it.

I started smoking Newport from a girl I was dating. Next girlfriend smoked Salem and I switched. We are still married over 42 years. Sometime in the 70s on one of my failed attempts to quit, I switched to L&M red 100s to get over the menthol addiction. Didn't help but I never went back to menthol as a regular smoke. I like a menthol once in a while and vape it for a change or vape tongue.

I smoked menthol cigarettes. Personally I find that there is a big difference from brand to brand in regards to what menthol tastes like. I used to smoke Capris and Mistys. I personally felt that Capris tasted better than Mistys, but they were so incredibly expensive at $8.25 - $8.75 a pack. My boyfriend smokes Newports. I've been known to smoke those, but boy are they strong! I've tried Salems, Virginia Slims (menthol) and Kool. I found them all to be gross. I've also had Mavericks (some cheapy off brand) and Malboro menthol lights. Both of those are ok.

I haven't tried tons of menthol juices, but Mr. E-Liquid's menthol light is my favorite. It's cool, slightly sweet, a hint of tobacco. My local vape shop had a Newport copycat juice. It actually tasted like vaping a Newport. But overall, I found the combination of the tobacco and menthol tastes gross to vape. I dunno. I guess my goal in vaping is not really to replicate the taste of cigarette smoke (which really isn't all that great to begin with IMHO).
