The Story
“Cool mint and herbal sharpness over an earthy, gassy funk.”
The nose is distinctive: cool mint and herbal sharpness over an earthy, gassy funk, unlike most candy exotics. The effect is balanced and easy — a euphoric, relaxed high, potent but versatile.
It's very frosty and loud, prized for the menthol character it passes to crosses like Pink Certz. For a genuinely minty, gassy profile, The Menthol is a one-off.
