Garden Mint Flavor-FLV

I really dig spearmint or straight mint flavors so I was anxious to give this one a try. I was hoping it didn't contain any cooling added to it and thankfully that was the case. I was expecting a straight mint flavor but what I got definitely earned the name Garden Mint. I has a hint of spearmint in there somewhere but the biggest surprise was the leafy aspect of this. It's like if you were going to make a flavor that mimicked chewing on a fresh mint leaf. The leafy-ness comes across as somewhat of an earthy tone but not grassy. It really makes me think of chewing on a fresh mint leaf. There's some other slightly bright note in there on the top end but it fades quickly. I can't really pin that flavor down but it's certainly a plus here and may be what's giving the whole thing that fresh leaf vibe. I really love this flavor and it seems like something that fit perfectly in a tea or maybe something you want to literally have a garnish of mint on top or the side. One of the best mint flavors I've ever come across. 1% worked nicely for testing but I haven't pushed it much higher yet so I'm not sure if that leafy note goes weird once you really push it up.
