BAT Launches "Glostudio" for Glo Hyper X2 in South Korea
BAT launched the Glostudio in South Korea on February 17, featuring the Glo Hyper X2 and a beer collaboration.

On February 17th, BAT launched a pop-up store called "Glostudio" in South Korea, offering a comprehensive retail experience. On February 27th, they began offering customers the chance to try out their new product, "Glo Hyper X2," at the store located in Yeoksam-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul.


The store operates from 11 am to 7 pm. The main feature of "Glostudio" is the shape of its iris shutter, which is also the signature of the "Glo Hyper X2". The entrance is designed to resemble an electronic cigarette's induction coil.


After entering, four experiential spaces were prepared based on the theme of "finding oneself journey" to directly or indirectly experience the products.


Four experiential spaces have been named "Your Space," "Your Color," "Your Taste," and "Your Way." These spaces allow visitors to experience "GloHyperX2." Each space has been designed to assist users in selecting their preferred background for selfies or enjoying a drink, and each space has a resident guide.


BAT has partnered with craft beer brand Amazing Bruing Company to release a new beer called "Hyper Mac X2". This beer is a blend of two types of beer, an ale and a porter, with a strong fruity flavor. The name "Hyper X2" is a combination of "Mac X2" and "Hyper", meaning "two beers in one". Visitors to the store can sample the beer and even customize their own flavor.


All visitors who purchase the "Hyper Mac X2" will receive a 30% discount and can take photos and post them on social media with the tag #HyperMacX2 to receive instant photo printing for their keepsake.

PMI Faces Setback in India: Global Regulatory Fragmentation Complicates Its Smoke-Free Transition
India has reaffirmed its 2019 ban on e-cigarettes and heated tobacco devices, effectively blocking Philip Morris International (PMI) from launching IQOS in the country despite years of lobbying. Together with Taiwan, China’s conditional opening of heated tobacco products, and Japan’s planned 2026 excise tax hikes, these moves highlight increasingly divergent national regulatory pathways—an external uncertainty shaping PMI’s smoke-free growth trajectory.
