Lucky Strike to launch new tobacco brand for glo hyper, compatible with glo hyper pro, starting from January 29.

According to a report by Japanese media outlet mynavi on January 24, British American Tobacco Japan will be launching a new regular blended brand called "Lucky Strike Smooth Tobacco for glo hyper" starting from January 29. This will serve as a tobacco stick specifically designed for the heated tobacco device "glo". Additionally, the standard regular brand "Lucky Strike Rich Tobacco for glo hyper" will also be updated with a new blend.

 

These two products are specifically designed for the "glo hyper" series and are also compatible with the latest heated tobacco device "glo hyper pro" released in December 2023. The new device features HEATBOOST technology, which, when used in conjunction with the two products, provides a deeper tobacco flavor and greater satisfaction.

 

New and updated products will be sold for 400 yen at major convenience stores, supermarkets, tobacco shops, and the official online store of glo & VELO.

DTI drafts administrative order proposing an open-pod and e-liquid ban and opens it for public consultation

The group warned that limiting rules to certain products such as open pods and e-liquids could create a “dangerous behavioral loophole,” leading users—especially youth—to switch to disposable or closed-system alternatives instead of quitting.
