This paper provides insights into the response of the tobacco industry to the implementation of the menthol ban in Denmark. In this case study, we identify loopholes in the characterising flavour ban and discuss how to make bans on menthol-flavoured tobacco most effective. The analysis is based on screening tobacco products using online tobacco stores, and samples of cigarette packages, tobacco flavour accessories, and menthol-flavoured cigarette-like products purchased between December 2019 and January 2022.
