Nicotine-Free Menthol Vapes
A menthol vape is flavored with menthol, the compound that switches on your mouth's cold receptor, so it tastes ice-cold without the vapor getting colder. We make two: the Lightning Menthol pod (10,000 uses, $14) and Gust Pro Menthol (20,000 uses, $20), which adds four ice settings. Both are made without added nicotine or tobacco.

Frequently Asked Questions
Two menthol flavors: Gust Pro Menthol (20,000 uses, $20) and the Lightning Menthol pod (10,000 uses, $14). You'll also see Gust Core Clear here (rated 50,000 uses, $25). It isn't a menthol: it's unflavored, with a light touch of ice, for a softer cool.
Gust Pro Menthol tested non-detect for nicotine at Legend Technical Services (LC-MS/MS, Work Order #2503988). Lightning Menthol was not in that panel. Both are made without added nicotine. See the results by flavor.
Menthol switches on TRPM8, the cold-sensing receptor in your mouth and throat, so your nerves report cold while the vapor's temperature doesn't change. The receptor was identified in 2002 (McKemy et al., Nature, PMID 11882888).
No vape is proven safe, and there are no long-term studies of nicotine-free menthol vaping. What we can document: our menthol e-liquid is USP-grade VG and PG with food-grade flavorings, made without added nicotine, tobacco, diacetyl or vitamin E acetate, and Gust Pro Menthol tested non-detect for nicotine (Work Order #2503988). For what menthol does in the lungs, see our ice vapes guide.
Not from the menthol. Menthol cools and can slightly numb the throat; the head rush people call a buzz comes from nicotine. Our menthol pods and devices are made without added nicotine, so the sensation is cold, not a rush.
