From bad to worse! Couldn't take any more of the menthol so tried the unmarked sample bottle they sent. This was a mistake as it tastes like jif. I kid you not! I assume it's a lemon one but it's simply not vapable. Got the skycig menthol carto on my Riva bat for now >

Hi Crin766, Any of the sample menthols and the menthol flavours that I have tried to mix myself, all have the "throat clearing" positives of normal menthol but the Jacvapour one has a menthol "taste" as well as the throaty kick.
Any e-juice that "is for me" has to have the taste as well as the throut hit and the vapour. Indeed the taste is thee most important bit for me.
I suggest you leave your Jif Tasting juice a week or two and then try it again. It sometimes takes a week or two for the taste to develope in a bottle.

I looked at the menthol from jacvapour and paradise but went with the latter as they allow you to change vg/pg mix to 50/50 which I'm keen to try. I ordered 20ml of their tobacco menthol and 5ml of their gv. Hope these will be a bit better than what I have. I have also ordered a selection from a forum member so will be spoiled for choice.!

Hi Crin Like you, I recently bought a Riva kit from UK ecig but got the larger 1100 batteries. I love my kit, but the juices i got from them were just dreadful. Don't give up as I have ordered various flavours from various companies to find what i like best. It is a voyage of discovery and i am really enjoying myself! I have learnt that i prefer my flavours with a 50/50 mix of vg and pg. My fave tobacco so far is RY4 from vapists vapours and my fave flavour is choc mint chip from vape escape. I have ordered some more from other places and am building up a nice little collection. I also really like vape escapes black jack which is like the old sweets we had as a child bit of a cross between aniseed and licorice but i wouldnt reccomend it for anyone who doesnt like the strong tobacco taste. I have heard rave reviews about the offerings from Pixie Juice but can't order till Monday. Keep trying till you find YOUR perfection

Well it was the juice - thanks whufc.
So I spent most of the night trying as many as possible out, resulting in a nicotine overdose, but well worth it.
I found the best smelling ones were not the best tasting. For example the Irish coffee and rum ice cream I went for first were nowhere near as good as as I had expected but was presently surprised by the fruit flavours. I even tried a bit of this and a bit of that in the end and am now vaping a cocktail of strawberry menthol and pal mal which is great.
I have discovered that mostly pg as these are is a little low on vapour for me. Can't wait for my 50/50 to arrive.
