menthols

Minty tobacco products

Menthols are cigarettes flavored with menthol, a compound that produces a cooling sensation in the throat: She only smokes menthols.

The term distinguishes them from regular unflavored cigarettes.

Menthol cigarettes have faced regulatory scrutiny due to concerns they make smoking more palatable and addictive.
