Oxva Ox Passion Nic Salt E-Liquid Mixed Grape: The Short Version

Oxva Ox Passion Nic Salt E-Liquid Mixed Grape is a 10ml bottle of nicotine salt e-liquid from Oxva, a company that made its name with refillable pod hardware before it started bottling liquid of its own. Mixed Grape is one flavour in the Ox Passion range, which runs to around twenty options, and it sits firmly in the sweet fruit camp. Grape comes first, the sweetness is rounded rather than sharp, and there is no menthol or ice in the name, so there is none to expect in the mouth.

It is sold in the two strengths most British pod vapers actually use, 10mg and 20mg. The 20mg per millilitre figure is the legal ceiling for nicotine e-liquid in the UK, so nothing in this range is stronger than the law allows. The bottle is the standard 10ml size with a child-resistant cap, a tamper-evident seal and the nicotine health warning that UK labelling rules require. Everything we sell is for adults aged 18+, and age checks apply to every order.

This page is the long version for anyone who likes to know what they are buying before they click. It covers what is in the bottle, how Mixed Grape tastes, which devices and coil resistances suit it, how to choose between 10mg and 20mg, how to fill and prime a pod properly, what usually goes wrong and how to fix it, and how the value works out once you factor in the BUY 5 FOR £10 offer. We also compare it fairly with the other ways of buying nicotine salts, including the places where a competitor may suit you better.

One honest note up front. This is a liquid, not a device. It has no battery, no coil and no puff counter of its own, so wherever this page talks about charging or coils it is describing the pod kit you put the liquid into, not the bottle. If you do not own a refillable pod system yet, start with our pod kits or the starter vape kits, then come back for the juice.

Key Facts: Bottle Size, Strengths, Offer and What You Are Buying

The summary below sticks to details we can stand behind. Where a number would be a guess, we leave it out and point you to the bottle label instead.

• Product: Oxva Ox Passion Nic Salt E-Liquid in the Mixed Grape flavour
• Type: nicotine salt e-liquid for refillable pod systems
• Bottle size: 10ml, the largest size allowed for nicotine e-liquid in the UK
• Strengths: 10mg and 20mg per ml, with the strength selector on the product page showing what is currently in stock
• Flavour: sweet mixed grape with no cooling agent
• Offer: BUY 5 FOR £10, which works out at £2.00 a bottle when you fill the bundle, and you can mix flavours within the offer
• Delivery: free UK delivery on baskets over £20, with weekday orders placed before 4pm dispatched the same day
• Age: 18+ only, with age verification on every order

Nicotine salt, usually shortened to nic salt, is nicotine bound to an acid, most often benzoic acid. That changes how the vapour feels in the throat. Older freebase nicotine, the kind used in large sub-ohm liquids, turns harsh quickly as the strength goes up. Nic salt stays noticeably smoother at the same strength, which is why it became the default for the small, low-powered pod devices that most UK vapers now use, and why a 20mg nic salt is usable in a pod where the same strength of freebase would be unpleasant.

The exact PG and VG split, the full ingredient list and the batch details are printed on the bottle label. We do not repeat a ratio here because the label on the bottle in your hand is the authority. Every nicotine e-liquid sold in the UK also has to be notified to the medicines regulator, the MHRA, before it can go on sale, so a bottle that carries the proper label, warnings and child-resistant closure is part of a documented system rather than a grey import. If you are particular about ratio, check the label when your order arrives.

What the bottle does not include is just as important. There is no device in the box, no spare pod and no coil. If you are new to refillable vaping, our guide to vape kits is a sensible starting point, and the full e-liquid range shows how this bottle sits against everything else we stock.

Flavour Profile: What Mixed Grape Actually Tastes Like

Grape is one of the harder fruit flavours to get right in a vape, because the real fruit sits between two different tastes. A purple grape leans jammy and deep, with a slight tannic edge. A green grape is lighter, crisper and closer to a white wine note. A mixed grape blend tries to hold both. In practice the sweet purple character tends to lead and the lighter notes sit behind it, and that matches how we would describe Oxva's version: a sweet, candy-leaning grape that reads as juicy rather than sour.

On the inhale the sweetness arrives first and quite quickly, at the front of the mouth. Mid-draw the grape fills out and picks up a familiar grape soda or sweet shop edge. On the exhale it stays fruity, and the aftertaste is clean and sugary without turning syrupy or sticky. There is no ice or menthol in the name and nothing in the flavour description to suggest a cooling agent, so the vapour is room temperature and the throat feel comes from the nicotine alone.

A few things change how it tastes in your hands.

• Warmer power settings pull out more sweetness and can push the grape towards cooked jam, while cooler settings keep it lighter and fresher.
• Fresh coils give the clearest flavour. A coil that has been in use for a week or two tends to flatten sweet fruit flavours first.
• Nicotine strength matters. At 20mg the throat hit sits on top of the flavour and trims the finer notes, while at 10mg you notice more fruit and less bite.
• Palate fatigue hits sweet single-fruit flavours harder than most. After a week on one grape bottle it is normal for it to taste a little muted, and the liquid has not gone off.

If you like this one, the nearest relatives are the other fruit-led bottles in the line. Blueberry Pom and Blue Mist sit in the blue and dark fruit family, while Berries Burst is a red berry mix. For a break from sweetness, Mint Mix or Pineapple Freeze make a cleaner contrast, which is exactly what a tired palate needs.

We also list a separate Mixed Grapes page in the same range. The two names are close enough to cause confusion, so check the product title, strength options and price on each page before you add to the basket.

Throat Hit, Vapour and How It Performs in a Pod

Performance with a bottled nic salt is decided by two things you control: the strength you pick and the device you use. The liquid itself is built for mouth-to-lung vaping, where you draw the vapour into your mouth first, pause briefly, then inhale. That is the draw style of almost every refillable pod kit on the market, and it is the style this liquid is formulated for.

Expect a moderate, flavour-forward cloud rather than a plume. Low-powered pod coils heat a small amount of liquid at a time, so the vapour is dense enough to taste the grape clearly but nowhere near the volume of a sub-ohm tank. If you are coming from a sub-ohm setup and want big clouds, this is the wrong tool, and our short-fill e-liquids are the better match for that kind of device.

On throat hit, the numbers behave as you would hope:

• 20mg gives a firm, noticeable hit on every draw. It is the strength most adults switching from regular cigarettes start on, and the one that most closely mimics the feel of a cigarette in the throat.
• 10mg is clearly softer. It suits people who already vape and find 20mg a bit sharp, and anyone who vapes steadily through the day rather than in short intense bursts.

It helps to put a bottle in practical terms. UK rules limit pods and tanks to 2ml, so a single 10ml bottle refills a typical pod about five times if you fill to the line. How long that lasts depends on how often you vape and on your nicotine strength. A light user can stretch a bottle across a week or more, while someone vaping heavily may use one in two or three days. That is why we recommend buying in multiples rather than one at a time, and why the multibuy offer matters.

It is worth being straight about puff counts. Disposable vapes used to print figures like 600 or 6000 puffs on the box, and plenty of buyers read those as promises. A bottle has no equivalent number, because the output depends on your coil, your wattage and your draw length. Anyone quoting a puff count for a bottle of loose e-liquid is guessing. What we can say is that the flavour stays consistent from the first fill to the last drop, provided you keep the coil fresh and the bottle stored properly.

If you are moving from a sealed bar to a refillable system and want a sense of what the hardware side looks like, the refillable vape pods collection shows the pods this kind of liquid goes into.

Bottle Design, Labelling and Build Quality

A bottle of e-liquid is a simple object, but the details decide whether filling a pod is a clean two-second job or a sticky mess. The Ox Passion bottle follows the standard UK format: a soft plastic body that you squeeze gently, a long narrow nozzle that fits into the fill port of most pods, and a child-resistant cap with a tamper-evident ring you break the first time you open it.

Those features are not optional extras. UK law requires nicotine e-liquid to be sold in child-resistant, tamper-evident packaging, in bottles of no more than 10ml, with specific information on the label. That includes the nicotine strength, the ingredients, the batch number and the health warning that nicotine is highly addictive. When you receive your order, look for all of those on the bottle. If any are missing, contact us rather than using it.

The things that make a bottle pleasant to use are small ones:

• A narrow nozzle lets you aim into a pod's fill port without overfilling or spilling liquid across the sides.
• A soft, squeezable body gives you control over the flow. A bottle that is too stiff glugs out in bursts, which is how pods flood.
• A tight cap seal keeps flavour in and stops the bottle weeping in a bag or pocket.
• A clear label means you can see the strength at a glance. When you own two or three strengths and flavours, this is more important than it sounds.

A realistic caveat applies to any 10ml bottle. The plastic is built for light weight and low cost, not for being dropped, crushed or left in a hot car. Treat it as a consumable and keep it upright in a cool place. Heat thins the liquid and pushes it past the cap, which is the usual explanation for a leaking bottle.

Because Oxva is a hardware company first, it is reasonable to expect the liquid to be filled into its own pods without fuss. That said, fill ports across the pod category are fairly consistent, so the bottle is not awkward with other brands either. If a particular pod has an unusually small port, a slow, gentle squeeze and a steady hand solve it.

If you want to keep a small stock of bottles tidy and in good condition, our vaping accessories range covers cases, cleaning items and spares.

Matching the Liquid to Your Coil and Pod Resistance

Nicotine salts and low-resistance coils do not get along. This is the single most useful piece of technical advice for anyone buying a bottle like this, so it deserves a proper explanation.

A coil's resistance is measured in ohms. Lower resistance means more power flows through, the coil gets hotter, and more liquid is vaporised per puff. Sub-ohm coils below 1.0 ohm are designed for thin, high-VG liquids in low-strength freebase nicotine, usually 3mg to 6mg. Put a 20mg nic salt through a sub-ohm coil and the result is an overwhelming nicotine hit, a harsh throat and a bottle that vanishes quickly. For nic salts, you want a coil in the mouth-to-lung range, typically around 0.6 to 1.2 ohm, running at modest wattage.

That range is where most pod kit coils sit. As examples of the sort of replacement parts people pair with a liquid like this, we stock the Oxva Xlim replacement cartridge 3 pack in 0.6 ohm, the Xlim EZ replacement pods 3 pack in 0.6 ohm, and the Vprime replacement pods 2 pack in 0.8 ohm. The ohm rating is in each product name, and we do not attach performance claims to them beyond that. Always confirm on the product page that a pod or cartridge is refillable before you buy bottled liquid for it.

A short guide to what the numbers mean in practice:

• Around 0.6 ohm produces a warmer, denser vapour and stronger flavour, and it uses liquid faster. It suits 10mg better than 20mg for most people.
• Around 0.8 ohm is a balanced middle ground and a comfortable match for either strength.
• Around 1.0 to 1.2 ohm gives a cooler, tighter and more cigarette-like draw with lower liquid use. It is a natural pairing for 20mg.

The coil's construction matters as well. Mesh coils spread heating across a wide surface, which tends to give even flavour and quick ramp-up. Traditional round-wire coils heat a smaller area and can taste a little more focused. Either works with a sweet grape, although a mesh coil usually shows more of the layering between the two grape notes. Wicking material is usually organic cotton, which is why priming is so important, as the section on filling explains.

Whatever you choose, change the coil on schedule. Sweet liquids carry more sugar, and sugar leaves residue on the heating element. Replace a coil or pod when the flavour dulls, not when it fails. Browse the coils collection if you need a spare.

Battery, Charging and Keeping Your Device Ready

A bottle of e-liquid has no battery, but the device you pour it into does, and a surprising number of poor vaping experiences come from a flat or badly managed battery rather than from the liquid. This section is about the hardware side of using Mixed Grape well.

Most current refillable pod kits charge over USB-C and use a small built-in lithium battery. We will not quote a milliamp-hour figure for this liquid, because it has none. The capacity of your device is on its product page. What we can tell you is how to look after whatever battery you have, because the habits are the same across brands:

• Charge before the first fill. A device that is flat when you first prime it tends to give a weak, inconsistent first few puffs, and a half-powered coil can burn the wick.
• Use a decent charger. A standard 5V phone charger or a computer USB port is fine. Avoid unbranded fast chargers of unknown quality.
• Do not leave it charging unattended overnight. Lithium batteries are safe in normal use, but sensible handling means unplugging once the indicator shows full.
• Avoid running it to zero. Topping up regularly is kinder to the cell than draining it fully every day.
• Keep the charging port clean and dry. E-liquid that seeps into a USB-C port can interrupt charging. If your device has been leaking, wipe the port with a dry cloth before plugging in.

Heat is the enemy of both battery and bottle. Do not leave a device or a bottle on a car dashboard, in direct sun, or next to a radiator. A hot battery loses capacity faster, and a hot bottle leaks.

One useful link between the two: low battery changes how the liquid tastes. As voltage drops, a coil cools slightly and sweet flavours thin out. If your Mixed Grape suddenly tastes flat and the coil is fresh, charge the device before you assume anything is wrong with the liquid.

Disposable vapes with sealed batteries used to be the main source of vape waste in the UK. They have been banned from sale since 1 June 2025, and that is one reason refillable kits with rechargeable batteries are now the standard way to vape. When a device finally reaches the end of its life, do not put it in the bin or the kerbside recycling. Lithium batteries can start fires in refuse vehicles. Take it to a household waste recycling centre or a WEEE drop-off point, or hand it back to a retailer, since shops that sell vapes are expected to accept old ones for recycling. Empty plastic bottles should be checked against your local council's guidance, as rules vary by area.

Choosing 10mg or 20mg Under UK Rules

The UK sets a maximum nicotine strength of 20mg per millilitre, or 2%, for e-liquids, refill pods and the rechargeable kits that replaced disposables. That cap applies to this bottle and to every other nicotine e-liquid sold legally in the country, so you will never find a legitimate 30mg or 50mg bottle here. Within that ceiling you have two choices with Mixed Grape, and getting it right the first time saves money.

The standard rule of thumb among UK vapers goes like this:

• 20mg suits adults who smoke around ten or more cigarettes a day, or who are moving across from a sealed 20mg device. It delivers the firmest throat hit and usually means fewer draws to feel satisfied.
• 10mg suits lighter smokers, adults who already vape and want to step down, and anyone who finds 20mg harsh. It is also the better choice with a low-resistance coil.

These are starting points, not rules, and your own body is the real test. Signs the strength is too high include a scratchy or burning throat, a lightheaded or slightly nauseous feeling, a racing heart, or feeling the need to put the device down after only a few draws. If you notice any of those, drop one strength. Signs it is too low include constantly reaching for the device, never feeling satisfied, and drifting back to cigarettes. In that case, step up.

Here is a useful trick. If you buy one bottle of each strength, you can blend them. Pour roughly equal parts into a pod and you get a strength close to 15mg, which is a comfortable middle for many people. Blend only in the pod or in a clean empty bottle you have labelled clearly, and never guess your way into a number higher than 20mg.

Remember what nicotine is. It is addictive, and the health warning on the label says so. This liquid is intended for adults who already smoke or vape, not for anyone who has never used nicotine, and it is not a medicine. If you are pregnant, have a heart condition, or take regular medication, speak to a health professional before using any nicotine product.

If you want to compare strengths across brands, the 20mg e-liquids collection lists every bottle at the legal maximum, and the nicotine salt range includes the lower strengths too.

Who Mixed Grape Suits, and Who Should Look Elsewhere

No liquid is for everyone, and a product page that pretends otherwise is not much use. Here is a plain assessment.

It is a good match if you:

• smoke or vape already and want a dependable sweet fruit flavour in a refillable pod system
• use a mouth-to-lung pod kit with a coil somewhere between 0.6 and 1.2 ohm
• like grape, grape soda or sweet shop flavours, and do not want menthol
• want to keep running costs low and are happy to refill a pod rather than swap a prefilled one
• buy in multiples and want to benefit from the BUY 5 FOR £10 offer

You should look elsewhere if you:

• are under 18, or have never smoked or vaped, since this is not for you at any price
• use a sub-ohm tank, because a nic salt in a sub-ohm coil is a poor match. Look at short fills instead
• dislike sweetness. A tobacco, menthol or mint bottle will suit you better, and our menthol e-liquids are a good place to start
• want no nicotine at all. See the nicotine-free e-liquids for zero-strength options
• are hoping for a ready-to-use sealed device. Single-use vapes are no longer legal to sell in the UK, so the equivalent today is a prefilled pod in a rechargeable kit

A particular word for people switching from disposables. A refillable system takes ten minutes of learning and then becomes routine. You will fill a pod rather than throw a device away, you will charge a battery rather than bin one, and the per-millilitre cost drops considerably. Our starter vape kits are chosen for exactly that move, and they pair naturally with a nic salt bottle like this.

If you already own an Oxva device, there is no extra decision to make beyond strength. The brand's kits, including options such as the NeXlim 2 Mini pod vape kit and the Xlim 4 pod kit, are built around the same mouth-to-lung style as this liquid. Check each product page for whether the pod is refillable and what it holds before you buy.

How to Fill, Prime and Use It

Getting the first fill right is the difference between a week of good flavour and a burnt coil on day one. The process takes about five minutes and the steps are the same for almost every refillable pod.

• Step 1. Check the device. Make sure the battery is charged and that the pod or cartridge is clean and seated properly. Read your device's instructions to find the fill port, which is usually under a silicone plug on the side or top.
• Step 2. Open the bottle. Press and turn the child-resistant cap as shown on the cap, and break the tamper ring the first time. Keep the bottle upright so the liquid does not run into the nozzle early.
• Step 3. Fill slowly. Put the nozzle into the fill port, squeeze gently, and stop at the maximum fill line. Never overfill. A UK pod holds at most 2ml, and a flooded pod gurgles and leaks.
• Step 4. Close up and wipe. Replace the plug firmly. Wipe any liquid off the outside of the pod and the contacts at the base, because liquid on the connector can stop the device firing.
• Step 5. Prime and wait. This is the one most people skip. Leave the filled pod standing for five to ten minutes so the cotton wick can soak through. A dry wick burns on the first draw and the burnt taste does not clear.
• Step 6. Take gentle first puffs. Draw slowly for the first few puffs without firing for long. Flavour usually peaks after the third or fourth draw once the coil is fully saturated.

Good habits keep the experience consistent. Top up before the pod is completely empty. Running a coil dry is the quickest way to ruin one. Refill when the level drops to about a quarter. If you change flavour in the same pod, empty it, wipe it and use a fresh coil if you can, because grape lingers and will ghost into the next flavour.

Store the bottle upright, with the cap fully closed, somewhere cool and out of direct sunlight. Keep it well away from children and pets. The child-resistant cap is a backup, not a guarantee. Nicotine liquid is poisonous if swallowed or if it gets on the skin in quantity, and if that happens you should seek medical help straight away and wash any skin contact with water.

Finally, pace yourself. Nic salts at 20mg deliver more nicotine per draw than many new users expect. Take fewer, slower puffs than you would on a cigarette and let your body tell you when you have had enough. If you need hardware, browse the pod kits to find a device that suits how you fill and carry it.

Troubleshooting Common Problems

Most problems with bottled nic salt come down to handling rather than the liquid. These are the issues we hear about most, and what actually fixes them.

• Burnt or acrid taste. Nearly always a coil that was not primed, or one that has run dry. Once cotton is scorched it does not recover. Replace the pod or coil, prime it properly for several minutes, and keep the level above a quarter.
• Leaking from the pod or the bottle. Heat, pressure or overfilling. Warmth thins the liquid, and air pressure on a flight pushes it through seals. Fill only to the line, store spares upright, and do not pack a loose bottle in a pocket on a plane.
• Gurgling or spitting. The coil is flooded. Take the pod off, blow gently through the mouthpiece with the device off, wipe the airflow area, and let it rest before trying again. Overfilling and very high strength combined with a cold coil are the usual causes.
• Flat or muted flavour. Check three things in order: the battery, the coil age and your palate. A flat battery and a tired coil are the common culprits, but if both are fine, spend a day on a very different flavour such as a mint and then return. Palate fatigue is real.
• Throat too harsh. The strength is too high for you, or the coil is too hot. Move from 20mg to 10mg, or choose a coil with a little more resistance.
• Not satisfying. The strength is too low, or the draw is too airy. Step up from 10mg to 20mg, or tighten the airflow if your device allows it.
• Liquid will not come out of the bottle. A vacuum has formed. Squeeze the bottle gently with the cap off to release the pressure, then try again, and do not squeeze it hard enough to jet liquid out.
• Device will not fire. Check the charge, check the pod is seated, and wipe the contacts. If liquid has run into the connector, dry it fully before charging or using it.

If you have tried all of this and something still seems wrong, contact our team with your order number and a short description. A bottle that arrives damaged, leaking or with a label that does not match what you ordered is something we will deal with. Because e-liquid is a consumable, opened bottles are not returnable as a matter of course, which is standard across the category. Faulty or incorrect items are a different matter, so let us know.

For recycling, never pour leftover liquid down the sink. Let a bottle empty fully, check your council's guidance for plastic that held nicotine liquid, and use a household waste recycling centre if kerbside collection does not accept it. Devices and batteries go to a WEEE drop-off point or back to a retailer.

Value for Money and How It Compares

Price per bottle only tells you part of the story. What matters is what the same money buys across the ways a UK adult can get nicotine salt flavour, so here is the honest comparison.

The offer. BUY 5 FOR £10 works out at £2.00 a bottle. You can mix flavours within the offer, which makes it an easy way to build a small rotation, for example one Mixed Grape alongside a mint, a berry and a citrus. If a single bottle costs more than £2.00 on its page, the bundle is the cheaper route. If you want to see every bottle that qualifies, the 5 for £10 e-liquids collection has the full list, and the multi-pack e-liquids and vape deals pages show other bundles. Orders over £20 ship free in the UK, so a bundle plus a spare coil often clears the threshold.

Versus prefilled pods. A prefilled pod is convenient, but you pay more for each millilitre because you are paying for the pod and the labour of filling it as well as the liquid. Bottles are the cheaper way to run a device, at the cost of a minute spent filling. Our refills and pods range is there for anyone who values convenience over price.

Versus other bottled nic salts. This is where fairness matters. Established juice houses such as IVG, Pod Salt, Nasty and My Salts have larger flavour catalogues, longer track records, and in several cases a wider spread of tobacco and menthol profiles than a line of around twenty flavours can offer. If you want a very specific profile, one of them may serve you better. Where Ox Passion competes is on price, on simplicity, and on the fact that the maker also designs the pods and cartridges the liquid goes into, which gives you a single brand to deal with for both halves of the system. We make no claim that it beats every rival on taste, because taste is personal. We would suggest buying a mixed bundle and judging for yourself.

Versus the old disposable route. Sealed bars were convenient, but they are no longer legal to sell in the UK. Even before the ban, the cost per millilitre was higher and the waste was considerable. A refillable device and a bottle of nic salt cost less over a month, generate far less waste and let you change flavour freely.

Delivery and buying with confidence. All our stock is genuine and sourced through UK distribution. Weekday orders placed before 4pm leave us the same day, delivery is free over £20, and every order is age-checked before dispatch.
