Starting up a vaping hobby as a beginner can be intimidating
– trust us, we’ve been there too. First,
you have to know what kind of setup makes sense for your needs, whether it be a
high-powered box mod or a portable, low-wattage pod system. Then, you have to know about coils,
batteries, output levels, and the like, while finding the perfect e-liquid to
suit your preferences, being mindful of the type of nicotine that works with
your particular needs.
Sound overwhelming?
Well, luckily, with trial & error, everyone eventually finds their
sweet spot. And, when it comes to
choosing the perfect flavor with which to enjoy your new hobby, you have two
choices: menthol-infused vapes, and non-menthol flavors.
Getting to know the Basics on Menthol
First up, let’s talk about what menthol is, since there’s a
lot of confusion. Menthol is a
derivative of the mint plant, as an independent compound that can be extracted
and infused into everything from cough medicine to hand lotion – and, in this
case, vape juices.
One of the most important things to know about menthol is
that it’s not actually a flavor – that is, it has no flavor molecules, as those
are separate compounds in mint. Menthol
does, however, offer a unique sensation when it’s inhaled and exhaled, which is
described as cooling, invigorating, and icy.
Menthol delivers a powerful throat hit, and that’s a big part of its
appeal, while being extremely refreshing.
Now, a lot of e-liquids on the market contain menthol
without any mint flavor. But, you’ll
also find a number of e-juices that contain both mint flavor and menthol, to
offer a sort of multifaceted “minty” experience while you vape.
Is Menthol in E-Liquids Authentic?
As you may have guessed, there are ways to replicate menthol
in a lab, to deliver the same sensation that people expect from the real
thing. However, at The Vape Mall, we
stick to authentic menthol crystals extracted from the mint plant, as we
believe that going with what’s natural is always better.
Is Menthol Safe?
Menthol is, by all means, safe. After all, it’s found in many medicines, and
again, it’s a compound found in mint, which is widely consumed all over the
world. Vaping menthol is not known to
pose any harm to anyone, as the only real complaint some individuals have is
that e-liquid brands who go heavy-handed with the menthol can end up creating
formulas that irritate the throat due to how intense the menthol concentration
is. Basically, you don’t have to worry
about menthol vape juices being harmful in any meaningful way, as long as the
vape juice brand producing it is legit.
What Types of Menthol Flavors are There?
Menthol can be enjoyed in all kinds of e-liquid types, as
that frosty sensation can complement all kinds of flavor profiles, such as:
- Desserts: Yes, menthol can complement all
kinds of desserts. We particularly love
menthol in ice cream-inspired desserts, since the cold touch of menthol can add
to the effect of enjoying a frozen treat. - Tobaccos: Menthol-infused tobacco is a
classic flavor, and a great choice for vaping beginners who want to mimic the
taste and feeling of what they were smoking before they decide to make the
switch to a tobacco-free lifestyle. - Fruits: Menthol-infused fruit flavors can
be intensely refreshing, offering a soothing kiss of iciness that exhilarates
the senses while the fruit adds a rejuvenating touch. Many fruit and menthol flavors also contain
mint flavoring, to really enhance the overall effect. - Candies: Yes, you can find
menthol-infused candies, which add a cooling touch to an already enticing
flavor, like sweet and sour gummies, and so on. - Misc.: You can find menthol in other
flavors, too, like beverages (milkshakes, colas, slushy beverages, lemonades,
etc.) along with cereal flavors, which are extremely popular. In the case of cereal flavors, the menthol can
give the impression of enjoying sweet cereal with cold milk fresh out of the
refrigerator. - Pure Menthol: Finally, we have e-liquids
that contain just pure menthol, or mint paired with menthol. These can be enjoyed on their own, or simply added
to your favorite existing e-liquid to add a crisp and cool touch.
