Seriously Fruity Shortfill E-Liquid By Doozy – Blackcurrant Honeydew

Blackcurrant Honeydew: Doozy's dark-berry-meets-melon summer blend

Blackcurrant Honeydew is a study in contrast done right. On one side you have blackcurrant, that deep, purple, jammy British berry that vapers have loved for years. On the other sits honeydew melon, pale, cool and gently sweet, the sort of fruit that tastes like the last easy afternoon of summer. Put them together in this Seriously Fruity shortfill and the sharp edge of the berry gets softened, while the melon gains a backbone it never has on its own. The result is fruity without being sugary, refreshing without being icy, and genuinely easy to vape all day.

Walking through the flavour

The inhale leads with blackcurrant. It is bold and unmistakably dark-berry, carrying that slightly tart, slightly tangy character that stops any berry vape from tasting like flat syrup. There is real depth here, the kind you get from ripe fruit rather than boiled sweets, and it hits the front of the tongue with a satisfying pop of colour.

Then the honeydew steps forward and changes everything. Where the blackcurrant is intense and forward, the melon is smooth, watery and almost floral, and it wraps around the berry to round off its sharp corners. This mid-vape blend is the heart of the flavour. The two fruits do not fight, they trade places, and you get a rolling sweet-then-cool sensation that keeps every draw interesting instead of settling into one flat note.

The exhale is where the melon really earns its keep. It leaves a clean, juicy, faintly cooling finish, not menthol-cold but naturally refreshing, the way a slice of chilled melon feels on a warm day. The aftertaste is light and quenching rather than heavy, so you can chain a few draws without your mouth feeling coated. That crispness is exactly why this reads as an all-day vape rather than a rich treat.

Best mood, moment and vaper for it

This one is built for warm weather and easy days. It is a garden vape, a long-walk vape, a sitting-outside-with-friends vape. The natural cooling in the melon makes it feel refreshing when the temperature climbs, and the blackcurrant gives it enough body to still satisfy when you want something with a bit of punch. If you find pure menthols too clinical but a straight sweet berry too heavy, this middle ground is likely your sweet spot.

It suits fruit vapers who like a bit of complexity. Anyone who has drifted away from single-fruit liquids because they got boring will appreciate the interplay here. It is also a strong pick for someone easing off dessert or tobacco flavours who wants something clean and bright without diving straight into a full ice blast.

How it stacks up, and clever pairings

Blackcurrant is one of the most common notes in UK vaping, usually paired with menthol or apple. Swapping that predictable partner for honeydew makes this feel fresher than the usual blackcurrant menthol, and softer than a blackcurrant-and-citrus. Compared to a plain melon liquid, the berry gives it far more presence, so it never comes across as watery or vague, which pure honeydew vapes sometimes do.

Fruit liquids fatigue the palate more slowly than desserts, but even the best fruit blend can start to taste one-note after days of solid use. Rotate smartly to keep it vivid:

• A cold menthol or an icy fruit for the hottest part of the day, so the gentle cooling here still feels like a step up rather than the baseline.
• A citrus or tropical blend to swing brighter and sharper when you fancy a change of pace.
• A soft dessert or vanilla in the evening, giving your palate a full contrast so the berry-melon combo tastes new again the next morning.

Keeping one contrasting flavour in the rotation is all it takes to stop the blend blurring into background sweetness.

Getting the most from it

Fruit blends like this one taste truest through a sub-ohm setup running a cool-to-medium output. Too much heat mutes the delicate honeydew and lets the blackcurrant dominate, so if the melon seems to vanish, ease your power down a touch and the balance usually returns. A clean coil matters here as well, because a tired coil dulls the crisp top notes first, and those bright fruit accents are the whole point of this liquid.

This is a nicotine-free shortfill, so you add a nic shot before use if you want nicotine, and it is for over-18s only. Fruit mixes need far less steeping than desserts, and many vapers find Blackcurrant Honeydew is enjoyable almost straight away, with just a short rest to let the nic shot fully blend in. Store it upright, out of sunlight and away from heat, because warmth and UV degrade fresh fruit flavours faster than any other style. A cool, dark cupboard keeps that just-picked crispness intact right down to the last few millilitres.

Value, coil wear and who might pass

Bought as a large shortfill, this is an economical way to keep a bright all-day fruit in constant supply, and the crisp, non-sugary character is gentler on coils than any dessert, so you should get a decent run out of each one before the flavour starts to fade. The vapers most likely to pass on it are dedicated menthol heads who want a genuine ice hit, since the cooling here is natural and mild rather than a frosty blast. Equally, if you only ever reach for dark, syrupy sweet flavours, the melon's lightness might read as too subtle. For everyone in between, this is about as versatile as fruit blends get.

Blackcurrant Honeydew FAQ

Is this a cooling or menthol flavour?

Not a menthol one. The refreshing quality comes from the honeydew melon itself, which has a naturally cool, juicy character. It feels crisp and quenching rather than icy, so if you want a proper cold hit you would need to reach for a dedicated ice liquid or add your own menthol note alongside it.

Which fruit is more dominant, the blackcurrant or the melon?

The blackcurrant leads on the inhale and gives the blend its depth and colour, while the honeydew takes over through the mid-vape and finish to soften and refresh. Neither swamps the other. If anything the balance shifts slightly toward the berry at higher power and toward the melon at cooler settings, so you can nudge it to taste.

Can I vape this all day without it getting sickly?

Yes, that is one of its strengths. The blend is fruity rather than sugary, and the melon's clean finish stops it coating your mouth, which is what makes so many sweeter liquids tiring by mid-afternoon. Keeping a second, contrasting flavour on hand will keep it tasting fresh across long sessions.
