IVG 2400 Reload 4-in-1 Pods – Purple Edition

Purple Edition: the darker, moodier end of the fruit bowl

Where red blends are all sunshine and summer, Purple Edition heads for the shade. This is the dark end of the fruit spectrum, the blackcurrants and blueberries and deep grapes that taste richer, tarter and a little more mysterious than their bright cousins. Loaded into an IVG 2400 Reload pod, it makes a cool, brooding, properly grown-up berry vape that plays very differently from the usual strawberry-led crowd. If your taste runs towards deep and jammy rather than light and candied, this is your corner.

A walk through the purple fruits

The first inhale leads with blackcurrant, the backbone of almost every great purple blend and the note that gives this one its tart, slightly sherbet-like sharpness. It is instantly recognisable, the flavour of the classic British berry sweet, and it grabs your attention straight away. Mid-draw the blend rounds out as darker berries fill in behind it, a soft blueberry sweetness and a deeper, wine-like grape richness that add body and stop the blackcurrant tipping into pure sourness. On the exhale there is often a subtle cool lift, a whisper of freshness rather than a full menthol blast, which cleans up the finish and leaves the mouth feeling refreshed rather than sticky. The aftertaste is dark, jammy and just tart enough to keep you coming back. It is a blend with more depth and shadow than a typical red mix, and that is exactly the appeal.

When Purple Edition is at its best

This is a flavour with a bit of attitude, which makes it a natural fit for the afternoon and evening rather than a bright breakfast vape. It suits people who find sweeter fruits cloying and want something with tartness and edge. The subtle cool lift makes it genuinely refreshing on a warm day or after food, when a heavy dessert flavour would feel like too much. It is also a strong pick for anyone crossing over from menthol who wants to explore fruit without losing that clean, crisp finish entirely. Mood-wise it is the moody playlist to a red blend's pop song, and plenty of vapers keep both around for exactly that reason.

How it compares to other berry blends

Set beside a strawberry or mixed-red pod, Purple Edition is unmistakably darker, tarter and more complex, less about instant sweetness and more about depth. Against a pure blackcurrant flavour it is more rounded, because the blueberry and grape soften and broaden the sharp edge. And compared with a heavy iced menthol berry, it keeps the cooling restrained so the fruit still leads, which is the sweet spot for a lot of people who like a hint of chill but do not want their tongue frozen. It occupies that middle ground between fruity and refreshing that is surprisingly hard to get right.

What to pair and rotate it with

Dark berry blends are rich, so pairing them with something from a different family keeps your palate honest across a long day.

• A bright citrus or lemonade for daytime, which contrasts nicely and makes the deep berries feel more indulgent by evening.
• A pure menthol or mint if you love the cool edge, giving you a fully icy option to alternate with the fruit-led Purple.
• A soft red or tropical fruit when you want a lighter change of pace without leaving the fruit category altogether.

The blackcurrant core is distinctive enough that your palate notices it after a while, so a contrasting pod on standby is the simplest way to keep every draw tasting sharp.

Getting the truest taste from each pod

Purple blends reward a little care. When you snap in a fresh Reload pod, give the coil a moment to soak before drawing hard, particularly if the pod has been kept somewhere cold, because a fully wicked coil brings out the roundness of the darker fruits rather than just the tart top note. Steady, measured draws suit this flavour better than sharp ones, letting the blueberry and grape depth develop instead of leaving only the blackcurrant sharpness. The tartness tends to read cleanest early in a pod's life and softens gently as you work through it, which is normal. If the cool lift ever seems to fade, that is usually palate fatigue rather than the pod, so a short break or a glass of water brings it back.

Storage, value and a note of caution

Because these are replacement Reload pods for the IVG 2400 device, you keep the kit and simply swap pods, which spreads your cost and cuts down on waste compared with disposables, with each pod rated for up to around 2400 puffs. Keep spares somewhere cool, dark and upright; dark fruit flavours are just as vulnerable to heat and sunlight as any other, and a pod left on a warm windowsill will taste flatter than one stored properly. One honest caveat: if you actively dislike tart or blackcurrant-heavy flavours, Purple Edition is not the pod to convert you, since that sharpness is central to its character. This is an adult product for over-18s in the UK, with nicotine kept within the 20mg per ml salt limit.

Purple Edition FAQ

Which fruits come through most?

Blackcurrant leads and defines the flavour, giving it that tart, sherbet-like sharpness, while blueberry and a deeper grape note round it out and add body underneath. The result reads as a dark, jammy berry blend rather than any single fruit, which is what sets the purple family apart from lighter red mixes.

Is there menthol in Purple Edition?

There is usually a subtle cool lift on the finish rather than a strong menthol hit, just enough to keep things refreshing and clean without overpowering the fruit. If you want a heavy ice effect you would be better rotating in a dedicated menthol pod alongside it.

Is it a good all-day vape?

It can be, especially for people who like tart fruit, though its depth means some vapers prefer it for the afternoon and evening and lean on a lighter flavour earlier. Pairing it with a brighter citrus or a menthol pod keeps your palate fresh if you plan to run it for long stretches.
