Comments on the packaging
Purple Blood from the Dark Story range could be the title of a good Stephen King thriller! Alfaliquid would present us with a bloody liquid taken from an anguish film? “Mauve Blood”, Purple Blood is actually a blend of purple fruits like blackcurrant, blackberry and blueberry. Nothing scary, on the contrary!
The Dark Story range presents all its liquids in an imposing cardboard box since there is the 60 ml flexible plastic bottle filled with 50ml of liquid, the nicotine booster vial dosed in 18mg / ml to obtain 60ml of liquid nicotine and the instructions for use. The Purple Blood recipe is based on a balanced PG / VG ratio of 50/50, and it will take 24,9 € to vape this liquid accompanied by its booster.
Purple Blood is also packaged in a 10ml nicotine vial in 0, 3, 6, 11 and even 16mg / ml for first-time vapers who are starting to quit smoking. The small vial is priced at € 5,9.
Small or large format, Purple Blood is an entry-level liquid.

Comments on the packaging
The packaging of the Dark Story range is simple and efficient. In the thick cardboard box are the bottle, the nicotine booster and the instructions for use. These three elements are harmonized around a night photo of a city and the name of the manufacturer.
Depending on the flavor of the liquid, a color is highlighted, it's strange, but for Purple Blood, it's green. Anyway, this packaging sticks very well to the name of the range. The materials used are of high quality and Alfaliquid has taken care of its visual. The information is very readable, airy and pleasant to read.

Comments on the taste of the juice
But what a smell it diffuses when opening the bottle! Blackcurrant and blackberry sweat from the bottle! Without any problem, I recognize these scents and they are so invigorating. I cock my dripper and pour a few drops of Purple Blood on my cotton pad.
I said invigorating because the blackcurrant that enters the mouth is acidic, even when it is ripe. It is very present, acid as it should be but attenuated by the blackberry which brings its pleasant touch of sugar. At the end of the inspiration, comes the touch of menthol and the freshness that goes with it. This ends up awakening your taste buds! When exhaling, everything mixes up a bit and I feel the delicacy and sweetness of the blueberry. The length in the mouth is correct and the hit when going through the throat is also correct.
This liquid is very well constructed, the flavors are perceived one after the other and blend perfectly. The touch of menthol is finely measured. It brings freshness but not the polar cold! The whole is a slightly sweet, pleasant and refreshing liquid.

Comments and recommendations for an optimal tasting
Purple Blood is a liquid that can be used by all vapers. The flavors are frank and pleasant. The balanced pg / vg ratio will allow you to vape it on a clearomizer or atomizer.
I chose a lukewarm vape to highlight the taste of the fruits and the aiflow is set to half so as not to let the cold enter too violently. But in fact, the menthol being very well dosed, you can adjust the airflow as you want.
Purple Blood will be able to vape in allday easily or to appreciate more episodically, to change flavor.

My mood ticket on this juice
Purple Blood has a black thriller name, it is also a very good liquid! Blackcurrants, Blackberries and Blueberries were immediately identified betrayed by a hint of freshness. When you finish a good book, you close the back cover and you feel a little lonely. The good thing about Purple Blood is that you can go back there and I won't mind!
The authors have made the almost perfect liquid since the Vapelier awards it a Top Juice!
