Blackberry comes in two broadly different versions, and which one a liquid uses tells you more about it than almost anything else on the label.
The first is jam: cooked down, sweetened, dark and thick, with the acidity mostly gone. It is the version most blackberry flavours use because it is easier to make and easier to like. The second is the underripe fruit — sharp, tannic, darker rather than sweeter, with a wine-like quality from the skins.
Swirl 13000's Blackberry Ice is the second, and the cooling changes what that means.
What underripe blackberry gives you
Sharpness first, and it is considerable.
The opening is genuinely tart — more acidic than a blueberry by a wide margin, with that particular dark-fruit sharpness that sits somewhere between a grape and a lemon. Alongside it comes the tannin: the drying, slightly grippy sensation from the skins, present from the first draw.
Behind both is the depth. A good blackberry has a dark, almost wine-like richness underneath the acid, and that is the element that separates it from a tart red fruit. It is here, though lightly.
What is absent is jam. There is no cooked sweetness, no thickened character, none of the spoonable preserve quality that the sweeter version has.
| Quality | Jam version | This one |
|---|---|---|
| Sweetness | High | Low-moderate |
| Acidity | Low | High |
| Tannin | Low | Moderate |
| Dark depth | Present, sweet | Present, dry |
| Cooked character | Yes | None |
What the ice does to it
Two things, one helpful and one not.
The helpful one is on the finish. Tannin dries and cooling dries, and when they are combined the result is a crispness that neither produces alone. That is why this is one of the most genuinely refreshing things on the Swirl range — not because it is cold, but because the dryness and the cold reinforce each other.
The unhelpful one is on the depth. Cooling suppresses the darker aromatic notes in a blackberry, and the wine-like richness is exactly the part that gets suppressed. So the fruit reads brighter and thinner than it would without ice — more tart, less dark.
That is a real trade. It makes this more refreshing and less interesting than a non-iced blackberry would be.
The cooling itself
Moderate, and placed sensibly.
It does not arrive on the inhale, which is the mistake that numbs the palate before the fruit can register. It builds through the draw and peaks on the exhale, by which point the blackberry's tartness and tannin have both landed.
It clears reasonably quickly afterward. There is no lingering numbness, so you can taste the next draw properly rather than tasting cold.
Why tartness matters more here than on the sweeter berries
The Swirl range leans sweet. Blueberry Blast, Hubba Bubba Grape and Pink Drink are all sugar-forward, and Blue Razz Ice is candy with cooling attached.
Blackberry Ice is the exception, and it is a useful one for two reasons.
The first is contrast. After food, or at the end of a long day, or at any point when sweetness has stopped appealing, this is the flavour on the range that still works.
The second is durability. Sugar is the thing your palate adapts to fastest; acid and tannin are the things it adapts to slowest. A device of this will still be producing a clear sensation at a point where a device of Pink Drink would have gone flat.
Who Blackberry Ice suits on the ALIBARBAR Swirl 13000
Buy it if you want the least sweet thing on this range.
Buy it if you like tart dark fruit — the underripe blackberry character is accurate.
Buy it if you want a flavour that will last all day without fading.
Skip it if you want blackberry jam. This is the sharp version, not the sweet one.
Skip blackberry ice if tartness reads as harsh to you. This is one of the tartest fruits here.
Against the Swirl range
- Blackberry Ice — tartest, driest, most refreshing, least sweet.
- Triple Berries — mixed berry without ice, sweeter and rounder.
- Blue Razz Ice — candy with cooling, not fruit.
- Blueberry Blast — sweet, loud, the opposite end.
Blackberry Ice is the most grown-up flavour on the Swirl range.
How blackberry ice holds up (ALIBARBAR Swirl 13000)
Best on the range, and this is where the choice of the underripe fruit pays off.
The dark depth is the first thing to fade, since it is the most delicate element and the cooling is already suppressing it. What survives is the tartness, the tannin and the cooling — all three of which are the non-fatiguing elements. Late in the device this is sharp, dry and cold, which is less rich than it started but considerably more alive than most of the range would be at the same point.
No off-notes. Tart iced berries can turn metallic when the acid and the cooling agent are badly matched, and there is none of that.
Ordering Blackberry Ice on the ALIBARBAR Swirl 13000
Check the purchase panel for the current ALIBARBAR Swirl 13000 Blackberry Ice price, promotion and availability rather than relying on an old quoted amount. Product pricing shown there includes GST, with dispatch from Australian-held stock for eligible orders.
Blackberry Ice is a common name across this catalogue and the versions differ — some are jam-sweet, some are far more heavily iced. Before you pay, check the listing photograph shows the Swirl 13000 body with its screen. That is the screen-led ALIBARBAR series, and it is not the gold-and-black ALIBARBAR 12000.
Thirteen thousand puffs is a manufacturer's figure for comparing models, not a promise about your device. How long blackberry ice lasts depends far more on how blackberry ice is used.
When the unit is finished, the battery inside cannot be taken out, so a battery collection point is the right endpoint rather than the household bin.
