Okay, I know next to nothing about menthol, but I just wanted to say listen to this man. All those chemicals people whine about being in cigarettes (which are really only in a few brands, one of mention - marlboro) are absent from this. It is just pure tobacco.
I smoke about 5 cigarettes a week, always hand rolled decent tobacco. It costs a lot less ($18-25 for a tin that is equivialent to a carton) and is purely as a compliment, like a garnish to whatever situation I'm in. It seems no worse to me than eating a candy bar but anyway.

The only reason I can think of that menthols produced more smoke is that maybe less was sticking to your lungs.
