The Ban of Menthol Cigarettes in the United Kingdom and the alternatives

As of May 20th 2020, all menthol cigarettes were be banned for sale across the UK and the rest of the EU. It was part of a campaign to phase out all flavoured cigarettes which started with the ban on 10 packs of menthols in May 2017.

The ban applies to capsule and dual menthol cigarettes, but not to e-cigarettes and e-liquids. Menthol is by far the most popular flavoured cigarette and makes up the vast majority of the market. Other cigarette flavours that are no longer available include anise, clove, citrus and fruit flavours.

With the complete ban of flavoured cigarettes menthol smokers are always searching for a replacement of that icy flavour, menthol infusion sheets are currently available on the market but are often described as having 'a lack of flavour' this is now a problem of the past...

New to the market! Menthos menthol drops are designed to mentholate up to 60 cigarettes similar to Instahit, just with a cheaper price tag.

Menthos Menthol Drops can be used on all filter types with little to no waiting time. Simply add 1 or 2 drops into the centre of the filter. Two drops will make an Icier flavour. This option gives you the ability to customise the strength of the menthol flavour to your liking. For cigarettes with recessed filters there is no waiting time, meaning it can be smoked straight after the drops have been added. For all other filter types there is a very short waiting time of 10 minutes.

Menthos Drops are very convenient and can be dropped into an entire box of cigarettes at one time. This can be useful if you are on the move or on a night out. The bottle is small and easy to carry.

Our unique formula has been developed by a team of in-house specialists and is a perfect balance between mint and coolness.
