Types and prices of Kent brands exclusively for glow

As of 2023, Glow's exclusive cigarettes come in two types: slim-sized cigarette sticks, which have been available since its launch, and thicker sticks, which have been available since 2019.

Note that Kent brands are available in both slim and thicker stick sizes and are compatible with different devices.

The 15 KENT flavours covered in 2023

The KENT sticks for glo covered at the time comprised 8 varieties for glo pro and 7 for glo hyper, a total of 15. This is not the number of varieties currently on sale.

It is important to note that the prices for Glow Pro and Glow Hyper are different, and the Glow Hyper is cheaper.

Note that the slim-size Glow Pro sticks, which were released earlier, are priced 30 yen higher than the slim-size Glow Pro sticks.

This price reversal is not only true for Kent, but also for Neo brands, and we feel that BAT, the distributor, intends to have them migrate to Glow Hyper.

Difference between slim size and thicker tobacco sticks

There are three main differences between the slim-size cigarette sticks for the Glow Pro and the thicker sticks for the Glow Hyper, which were launched later in the year.

Difference between slim size and thicker tobacco sticks
  • Differences in compatible devices (Glow Pro and Glow Hyper series)
  • 2023年当時の旧価格の違い(当時530円と当時500円・現在550円)
  • Difference in the amount of tobacco leaves

When Glow was first released, it was said to be less responsive to sucking compared to Icos, and the Glow Hyper series was developed to improve that, and it is a thicker stick.

In terms of the device, the maximum heating temperature was increased, and the amount of tobacco leaves in the special cigarette stick was increased by 301 TP3T, making it too hard to smoke! The maximum heating temperature was increased on the device side, and the amount of tobacco leaves in the dedicated tobacco sticks was increased by 301 TP3T.

Kent brand is the lightest flavor in the entire glow

As mentioned at the beginning of this article, there are six types of Glow's exclusive cigarette sticks: Kent and Neo for Professional and Kent, Neo, Cool, and Lucky Strike for Hyper.

Although the nicotine content guidelines for each brand have not been announced, according to Glow officials, the smoking experience (nicotine content) is said to be stronger in the following order

  1. lucky strike For glow hyper
  2. Cool X Neo For glow hyper
  3. neo For glow hyper
  4. Kent Neostick For glow hyper
  5. neo For Glow Pro
  6. Kent Neostick For Glow Pro

In other words, Kent is one of the lightest of all flavors, and if you are looking for a good smoke, Lucky Strike or Cool for Hyper is the way to go.

When smoked without crushing the capsule, the menthol is subdued, and when the capsule is crushed, it becomes a strong menthol that conveys a cold-ice sensation throughout the mouth.

It is nice to be able to taste two different strengths of menthol, although I personally find it a bit lacking if you don't crush the capsule.

The smoke is the weakest of Kent's menthols and tastes super light.

Although the inhale is weak, the cold-ice sensation is strong enough to cover the weakness of the menthol, and the cold-ice sensation allows for a clear taste with less of the unpleasant odor characteristic of cigarettes.

This is probably the best tasting regular Glow! I didn't like Neo regulars because of their strong taste and smell, but this one is very good because it is easy to smoke and has a tobacco feel!

Although there is a distinctive aroma unique to cigarettes, there is no unpleasant smell, and the impression is favorable.

The taste has no strange peculiarities and is simply a delicious regular flavor!

The flavor lineage is the quaint taste of the True series, but it's just too light to be a good smoke. The key is the vanilla, but ... to be honest, I could hardly tell.

The first puff is quite light (sweat), but as the stick warms up in the middle of the smoke, it becomes a little more responsive, but it is about as light as a paper roll between a super light and a light.

The odor seems to be reduced, but there is a normal smell, so it is recommended for those who prefer a lighter regular, rather than choosing it as a less smelly cigarette.

It is totally easier to smoke than Neo's Terracotta. The taste is like a royal regular flavor, not peculiar, easy to smoke, and most importantly, not too harsh.

A long-selling regular flavor that has been on the market since the early days of Glow Hyper.

The difference from clear is subtle, but it is easy to smoke, like a standard regular!

My throat hurts...and it comes to my nose (sweat) I tried my best to smoke two anyway, but it's soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much I can't do it anymore.

The smell is not minty or gentle at all, but rather a very chemical menthol flowery smell.

It may be for menthol lovers, but it is quite a harsh flavor for me, as I am not a fan of strong menthol.

It has an initial impact but is easy to smoke with a medium menthol as per the specs. The nicotine is not that harsh, so it is a menthol flavor that seems to be suitable for everyone!

If you want to enjoy a simple menthol flavor, Kent's True Menthol is sufficient, if not Neo!

It is a royal menthol with a good balance of both smoking and coolness.

The menthol sensation was as expected, weak around the lower middle as even I can afford to smoke it. It doesn't have the muscat flavor that you get when you sniff the stick, but it was kind of like a delicious menthol.

I also smelled the stick before heating,The menthol does not seem to be too strong, and the flavor of muscat is only faintly perceptible..

However, the taste is slightly sour menthol, and while it is clearly not minty, it is not muscat-like.

It is a normal menthol until you break the capsule, then it changes to a subtle blueberry flavor. However, it is not as berry-berry as the word "mellow" suggests, so it is more like a weak blueberry menthol.

This is the only flavored menthol in the Kent brand, which has been available since the early days of Glow Hyper, but it is less flavored than the Neo flavored menthol.

The berryiness is subdued, so we recommend the Neo brand for those who want to enjoy flavorful products.

Summary of the taste, price, and smoking experience of the glow-only Kent (KENT)

Kent has been marketed as an exclusive Glow cigarette since the launch of Glow, but with the increase in the flavor lineup, its position as a lighter flavor has finally been confirmed...................

Many smokers love this series because it is inexpensive in terms of price, but we hope you will find it useful when you want to try new flavors.

We have also reviewed each of the flavors for the Glow Pro and Glow Hyper, so if you would like to consider brands other than Kent, please refer to the following article as well.
