Mevius Blueberry Blast Menthol: Flavour Profile and Review

Mevius Blueberry Blast Menthol: Flavour Profile and Review

This review is for Australian adults aged 18 years and older. Smoking and nicotine are harmful and addictive; nothing on this page encourages starting or increasing tobacco use.

Mevius Premium Blueberry Blast Menthol OptionPurple 8 is the fruit-forward member of the purple-pack Mevius capsule family at SoulsSky. Mevius is Japan Tobacco's international brand — the name that replaced Mild Seven — and the Option line is its capsule series: a soft 8 mg body with a flavour capsule you can crush mid-cigarette. This Mevius Blueberry Blast Menthol review covers the three things most adult smokers ask about before buying: the flavour profile, the strength and the current A$ price.

Flavour profile: blueberry blast and menthol

Blueberry Blast Menthol is a capsule cigarette, which means the character of the smoke changes the moment you crush the filter capsule. Uncrushed, it smokes as a clean, cooling menthol: the mint note is present from the first draw and keeps the finish light and fresh. Crush the capsule and the blueberry comes forward hard — sweet, fruity and noticeably cooler, with the berry note dominating the finish rather than sitting underneath it.

That puts it at the fruit-heavy end of the three purple-pack listings in the same range. Mevius Option Purple 8 (A$175.50) is the balanced middle: the store describes it as "a burst of blueberry with cooling menthol", with fruit and menthol in roughly equal measure. MEVIUS PREMIUM MENTHOL OPTION PURPLE 8 (A$175.50) keeps the menthol character straightforward and unflavoured. Blueberry Blast Menthol is the stronger-flavoured pick: if you want the berry note dominant, this is the version to choose.

Strength and draw

The 8 mg tier places Blueberry Blast Menthol in the middle of the Mevius strength range, and the draw matches that position: smooth and easy rather than heavy, with enough body to stay satisfying through the day. It is lighter than the 10 mg Hard Pack but fuller than the classic lights, which is exactly why the Option series is a common first pick for smokers moving between the two.

The capsule adds a second dimension. Smokers who want a cooler, lighter-feeling cigarette can leave it uncrushed; smokers who want the fruit and a stronger cooling finish can crush it mid-cigarette and change the character of the smoke without changing the strength tier. Compared with MEVIUS LIGHTS 8 mg (A$188.50), the Blueberry Blast keeps the same middle-strength base and adds the berry-menthol flavour layer.

Price and value at SoulsSky

All SoulsSky prices are shown in Australian dollars and can change with stock and promotions; the figures below were read from the live product pages on the day this review was published. Mevius Premium Blueberry Blast Menthol OptionPurple 8 is listed at A$182.00. That is a little more than the other two purple-pack entries — Mevius Option Purple 8 and MEVIUS PREMIUM MENTHOL OPTION PURPLE 8 are both A$175.50 — and the difference reflects the stronger, fruitier flavour profile rather than a different format or strength. For adult smokers who want fruit and menthol in one cigarette with the strongest blueberry note in the range, it is the flavour pick of the three.

Who should choose Mevius Blueberry Blast Menthol?

Choose Blueberry Blast Menthol if you already smoke mild-to-medium cigarettes, like menthol coolness, and want the fruitiest capsule option in the Mevius purple-pack family. It suits smokers who like: a smooth, light draw; a flavour capsule for variety mid-smoke; a strong berry note; and a cooler finish.

If you prefer your menthol clean and unflavoured, the Premium Menthol version is the simpler choice; if you want the balanced middle, Mevius Option Purple 8 sits between the two; and if you want a fuller-bodied cigarette without the capsule, Mild Mevius 10mg Hard Pack (A$175.50) is the fuller alternative. The Mevius flavours and strength guide explains how the whole range lines up.
