I agree totally at different resistances halo juice is totally different. I can't vape them at HR at all its too cool a vape which I don't like but on top of that it doesn't really get all of the flavors out of the juice. Tiki juice is my favorite on Dual Coil LR clearos, but those clearos are so crap (the cracking plastic ones with filler) that I don't even think they make them anymore, not to mention they are dangerous as hell, I almost started a fire on an airplane after i pocketed one... the filler was red hot and melted... I burnt my leg. If they made a legit clearo dual coil LR Ii'd be in heaven with tiki juice, its just enough to burn off all the menthol and get to the delicious vanillay/caramel/marshmellowy/peppery goodness. On SC LR @4.2 -> 3.7 its still good enough for me to call my favorite but I do get a really good dose of methol/peppermint. Its such a unique vape its really hard for me to describe but it will keep you coming back for more. A lot of people taste Dr. Pepper in Tiki, I do get that peppery hit on the exhale but as I don't drink dr. pepper I can't say for sure.

Sounds like I'm at the very least going to have to pick up a small bottle to try on my next order. Totally agree with you on the resistances - I love Turepure on a LR, Mystic on either LR or regular, and HX3 on standard. Best taste so far aside from dripping would be from my Vivi Nova Mini and Kanger T2. The only exception would be Shamrock which I can't quite figure out yet - way too rich on my 1.7 ohm SMOKtech shorty carto, but kind of "off" on a stadard resistance. I can't wait for it to steep a bit. :D

I smoked menthol cigarettes for many years before vaping, and I struggled to find the same menthol hit I experienced in analogs. I tried many menthol/tobacco combinations and hated every one of them. I've now switched to strictly menthol and mint flavors and I've found that they are my favorite. I tried Halo's HX3, Malibu, Mystic, and Kringle's Kurse (they sent me a free Shamrock and I absolutely hated it... hate chocolate). I'm not too fond of the HX3, Malibu or Mystic, but man, I love me some Kringle's Kurse! I know that it's more of a cool mint than menthol, but it is my new favorite every day vape. I think your taste preference is similar to mine, and I bet if you tried it, you'd love it too. Give it a shot!

I have to second the Kringle's Curse. I used to be all about TruePure, and only TruePure. And although I still suggest you at least get a small bottle to try (it really isn't overpowering at all, and I can taste a bit of the sweetness you're looking for), I am starting to like the Kringle's Curse even more. It is a nice sweet peppermint.

My next order will be a bottle of each until I can decide on one of the two to be my all day.

@LR malibu can really knock your socks off. Its too strong for me sometimes, but that's possibly because I'm not usually a menthol fan, malibu is the only exception to that rule for me. @HR its a really mellow vape so if you use the cooler resistances its probably not going to be as prominant. I made the mistake of filling a cart full of malibu once for a smoker to try... they started coughing and said it was too strong. true story. I get the impression halo tests their juices from their hr/808 setups. This flavor is possibly the only flavor I would call a true chameleon... by varying voltage and lr/hr I can either dump the menthol aspect of it (burn it off) and savor the coconut/pineapple underneath or I can dial it town and enjoy a cool menthol. I've not come across another flavor that really behaves the way Malibu does.

In anycase, Malibu Menthol is worth a look, at least once. Its definitely unique. And yummy.

My friends say it smells like candy out of the bottle, and I'd have to agree.

Just wanted to thank you - got a tiny bottle of Malibu in and rocking it on a LR attie in an Elips. It is a tiny device with a tiny amount of heaven inside of it. :) Going to load up some on a regular attie soon to see if I like it mellowed down.

The menthol from Awesome Vapor is a lightly sweet menthol, especially when vaped out of a tank. Another good menthol tobacco is the one they sell at Highbrow. You might want to ask them to go a little light on the menthol because it is quite strong. I've been mixing highbrow ry4 and their menthol tobacco and been LOVING it, the ry4 really adds a nice sweetness to it. Also a fan of mixing aweomes menthol and a good vanilla.

Try Minthol flavor from madvapes.com - Minthol - it's sweet and minty, but not medicine-y. You can pick your bottle size and nicotine strength (I vape it at 18mg), but not your pg/vg ratio (unless otherwise stated, all madvapes juices are 20pg/80vg. they produce really good vapor, and the flavor is excellent! There's a bit of throat hit, but not like "Chuck Norris roundhouse kick to the uvula" or anything. I'm using a standard 900mAh Ego battery and a boge 2.0ohm dual coil cartomizer, so if you have a variable voltage device, you may get a different experience as far as throat hit goes. But yeah, it's pretty much my all day vape right now. Try it out!
