Lost Mary BM600 Prefilled Pods – Blackcurrant Apple

A proper British pairing

Blackcurrant and apple isn't a flavour PinkVape invented, it's the taste of squash bottles, crumbles, and cordial from childhood, and Lost Mary have leaned into that familiarity rather than fighting it. On the BM600, the pairing is built around a dark, jammy blackcurrant base that's been softened just enough by a crisp, slightly tart apple, so neither fruit shouts over the other. It's a flavour that feels instantly recognisable on the first draw, which is exactly why it's become one of the steadier sellers in the range rather than a flash-in-the-pan novelty.

How the flavour moves through a vape

The opening pull leads with blackcurrant, deep, a touch syrupy, closer to fresh currants than the boiled-sweet version some brands lean on. There's a small tannic edge to it, the kind you get biting into a really ripe currant, and it stops the sweetness from tipping into anything cloying. A beat later the apple arrives underneath, not sharp Granny Smith and not sugary red apple either, but somewhere in between, enough acidity to keep things lively.

Through the middle of a session the two fruits settle into each other. Rather than tasting like two separate flavours stacked on top of one another, they start to read as a single blended juice, the way a good blackcurrant-and-apple squash does after the first sip. There's a gentle roundness that builds up over several draws too, not sweetness exactly, more a sense that the fruit has had time to properly infuse the vapour rather than sitting on the surface of it. The exhale is where the apple pulls slightly ahead, leaving a clean, faintly tart finish rather than a heavy fruit-syrup aftertaste. There's no menthol or ice in this one, so what you get on the back end is fruit, full stop, nothing to mask it, nothing to cool it down. That absence of ice is worth flagging for anyone used to fruit-ice pods, since the finish here stays warmer and softer than the cold snap you'd get from an iced equivalent.

Who this flavour suits

Blackcurrant Apple tends to land best with vapers who find pure berry flavours a bit one-note and want something with more shape to it. It also works well as a genuine all-day flavour rather than a treat vape, since it doesn't have the intensity that makes you crave a break after a few pods. Mornings and early afternoons suit it particularly well, there's a freshness to the apple note that feels more breakfast-juice than dessert, so it doesn't sit oddly if it's the first vape of the day. It's also a solid option for anyone who liked cordial or squash-based e-liquids in the past, since the profile maps closely onto that memory.

Where it sits next to other fruit blends

Compared with a straight blackcurrant flavour, this one is noticeably less heavy, the apple keeps it from becoming a one-dimensional berry hit. Against a blackberry or mixed-berry pod, Blackcurrant Apple reads as tarter and less sweet, with more definition between the two fruit notes rather than a blurred berry mush. It also sits apart from citrus-forward blends: there's no sharp lemon or lime cutting through, so it's a gentler, rounder vape by comparison. And next to a straight apple flavour on its own, this one has far more backbone, plain apple pods can taste thin or watery after a while, whereas the blackcurrant here gives the whole thing weight and colour.

If you're vaping this one regularly, it's worth keeping something with a completely different profile in rotation to stop your palate flattening it out, vapers who use the same fruit blend pod after pod for a week or two often report the flavour feels weaker than it actually is, simply from repetition. A menthol-forward or tropical pod alongside it resets your taste buds nicely, so Blackcurrant Apple tastes as vivid on day ten as it did on day one.

Getting the truest hit off every pod

A few habits help this particular blend taste its best. Slower, longer draws let the blackcurrant come through properly before the apple note takes over, rushed, short puffs tend to blur the two together and mute the tartness that makes the flavour interesting. It's also worth letting a fresh pod sit and settle for a minute or two after unsealing before the first draw, which lets the e-liquid saturate the coil evenly rather than pulling a slightly uneven first few puffs. Like all nicotine salt pods sold in the UK, strength is capped by law at 20mg/ml (2%), and this is a product for over-18 adult vapers only, not for anyone who has never smoked or vaped before.

Does Blackcurrant Apple taste more like blackcurrant or apple?

Blackcurrant leads on the inhale, but apple takes over on the exhale, so the overall impression is genuinely balanced rather than one fruit dominating throughout the vape.

Is there any menthol or cooling in this flavour?

No, Blackcurrant Apple on the BM600 is a straight fruit blend with no ice or menthol added, so the finish is fruity rather than cool.

Will the flavour fade before the pod runs out?

Flavour intensity on any prefilled pod naturally softens slightly as it empties, but blackcurrant and apple's dual-fruit structure tends to hold its definition better than single-note fruit flavours right through to the last few puffs.
