Difference between Plume X Mobius and Camel
Until Mebius was relaunched, the one-ranked flavor was Mebius, and the standard flavor Camel, but with the price of Mebius reduced from 570 yen to 500 yen, both are now available for 500 yen.
The problem with that is segregation. Up to now, Camel has been supported by a certain segment of the market as a reasonably priced Camel, but how will Camel differ from Mobius now that it no longer has the cheap feature? I'm curious to know!
We have asked the "JT's marketing manager" about this point, so please refer to the latter part of this article as well as JT's view on this point.
Camel Smooth and Camel Black Mint Menthol have been discontinued.
Comparing the new Mobius with the Camel! Comparison Review
First, please see the list of all 16 flavors of Mobius and Camel.
There is a clear difference between flavored menthols, with and without capsules, but the other flavors are in almost the same position.
So, the review is called "Difference in taste between Mobius and CamelThe following is a comparison of each of these from the perspective of
Comparative review of Mobius Deep Regular and Camel Rich
| Brand | strength | fragrance |

My impression of Mobius Deep Regular and Camel Rich
Officially, it is a light spec, but I did not feel that much difference in the smoking response itself.
Both have a strong tobacco-like flavor, but the taste and aroma are completely different! Mobius has a slightly sweeter, more complex flavor, and Camel has a rougher, more messy flavor... this is the impression I got.
However, the feeling of weakness after finishing the smoke was stronger in the Camel, and the amount of nicotine was probably higher in the Camel. I felt that the nicotine level was higher in the Camel.
Plume X Mebius Deep Regular Review

Taste CharacteristicsThe deep richness of the mellow tobacco leaf spreads powerfully from the first sip. This flavor allows you to enjoy the fragrant and slightly sweet taste to the end.
Just taking the stick out of the package, the sweet aroma of caramel wafts through the air, and despite this aroma, the flavor packs quite a punch.
It contains the familiar lamina familiar from Ameespi, and the flavor strain is a paper roll flavor with an "iga-iga" feel.

JT Master Blender's description of taste:Mobius Deep Regular
Deep Regular has a strong but soft flavor, with a balanced taste with a hint of caramelized notes while providing a real tobacco feel.
It has a softness in the midst of its strength, sort of two different flavors with two different characteristics.
Plume X Camel Rich Review

Taste CharacteristicsFull-bodied, savory flavor
It has a woody flavor, with a straight regularity rather than a subtle taste, and has the inherent bitterness and odor of tobacco.
The smoke has a solid mid-palate, but it smells like tobacco in a different way than Mobius Deep Regular.

My impression of Mobius Smooth Regular and Camel Smooth
Mobius Smooth Regular and Camel Smooth have a similar kick, but when it comes to quirkiness and low odor, it's Mobius.
The difference is slight, but the Camel is a little sweeter and the Mobius is a little woodier.
The improved beginning and end of the smoke may make Mobius more rewarding to smoke.
Plume X Mebius Smooth Regular Review

Taste CharacteristicsThe first sip is mellowed by the subtle woodiness and sweetness of the tobacco leaf. Enjoy the well-balanced, non-habit-forming taste to the end.
It is woody if you ask me, but it is a fairly unctuous regular, and the aroma has no strange odor, making "mellow" the perfect word for this flavor.
Overall, the kick is weak, making this regular suitable for all light flavor lovers.

JT Master Blender's description of taste:Mebius Smooth Regular
The flavor is lighter than Deep Regular and is inspired by the middle of Japanese tastes.
It has a wide range of flavors that can be enjoyed by anyone who smokes it.
Plume X Camel Smooth Review

Taste Characteristics: Smooth taste with good mouthfeel.
Camel Smooth is also light in flavor, but soft and sweet on the palate.
As per the official description of its characteristics, it has a smooth taste and is not so peculiar as to be peculiar, but the smell was a little off-putting.

My impression of Mobius Sharp Cold Menthol and Camel Menthol Cold
This was really a reviewer's tearful smoking comparison, and I almost died because they were both so cold that I lost track of what I was smoking when I alternated between them.
It's a small difference, but if you ask me what menthol has a sharpness, I would say Mobius, and if you ask me what menthol has a tobacco feel, I would say Camel. If you ask me which menthol has a tobacco feel, I would say Camel.
However, both have a strong menthol feel, so you can choose either the sharpness or the tobacco feel.
Plume X Mebius Sharp Cold Menthol Review

Taste Characteristics: A strong, penetrating cold menthol flavor that provides a solid cooling sensation. The perfect balance of tobacco leaf aroma and natural menthol 100% leaves a refreshing aftertaste even after the smoke is over.
It is a strong, cold menthol flavor that feels like menthol is sticking to your throat from the first puff, and people who don't like menthol should not touch it.
It has a hinny feeling that may even make your head hurt if you inhale deeply, and is recommended for those who like kinky menthol.

JT Master Blender's description of taste:Mobius Sharp Cold Menthol
Strong cold is the perfect word for this flavor, with a really strong menthol flavor that sticks out.
JT calls those who like menthol "menthol lovers," and we can confidently recommend this flavor to our menthol-loving customers.
Plume X Camel Menthol Cold Review

Taste CharacteristicsStrong menthol that penetrates through
Camel Menthol Cold is also as strong and cold as Mobius Sharp Cold Menthol, which gives me a headache.
The difference is that it feels more tobacco-like due to the presence of miscellaneous flavors, and my impression is that it is a strong cold menthol with a tobacco feel.

My impression of Mobius Cold Menthol and Camel Menthol Black Mint
I thought it would be a subtle comparison since the specifications themselves are completely different, but since there is no difference between the two, I decided to compare them as well.
In conclusion, Mobius Cold Menthol is a full-bodied, strong menthol, while Camel Black Mint Menthol is a medium menthol with mint flavor.
Although I am writing this article on the renewal of Mobius, I found the gentle menthol taste of Camel to be delicious.
Plume X Mebius Cold Menthol Review

Taste Characteristics: Balanced and crisp menthol brings a refreshing ice-cold sensation. This flavor allows you to enjoy the lingering taste of refreshing natural menthol 100% even after you finish the smoke.
It is a strong menthol, but not as strong as the earlier Sharp Cold Menthol or Camel Menthol Cold, but rather a rich and well-balanced royal menthol.
There are no peculiarities and the menthol feeling is about 4 ★ strong.

JT Master Blender's description of taste:Mobius Cold Menthol
Compared to Sharp Cold Menthol, the menthol is a little less menthol, while the tobacco taste is increased. The balance between the menthol and tobacco sensations, the harmony of these two flavors can be enjoyed.
Plume X Camel Menthol Black Mint Review

Taste CharacteristicsHerbal menthol: addictive
It tastes more like mint-flavored menthol than menthol, and the flavor is quite minty.
It is a menthol that is about the strength of a medium menthol, so if you don't mind mint, it is a tasty menthol to smoke!

How did I compare Mobius Purple Option and Camel Menthol Purple?
The aroma and sweetness are superior to the Camel, but the Mebius capsule wins hands down for the intensity and reproducibility of the berry flavor.
Camel Menthol Purple is delicious, but the Mobius Purple option is like a premium grape flavor.
Plume X Mebius Purple Option Review

Taste Characteristics: The menthol is refreshing and the berry capsule has a gorgeous aroma that bursts forth from the moment it is crushed. 100% natural menthol is used for menthol.
It is not too sweet for a berry type, and the moment you crack it open, the berries spread in your mouth, but are refreshing without lingering.
You'll enjoy the rich flavor of a ripe grape, not the cheesy blueberry gum-like taste that heated cigarettes are still just starting to come out with!
Plume X Camel Menthol Purple Review

Taste CharacteristicsBerry flavor
Needless to say, the aroma smells delicious, but the flavor is even better! It is one of the best berry flavors, second only to Icos' YUGEN.
The best flavor is the rich sweet and sour taste of the berries, perfectly blended with the menthol that complements it! Delicious!

How did you compare Mobius Red Option and Camel Menthol Red?
It's hard to say which is better, but in terms of taste, Mobius Red is the best option.
The impact of the aroma and taste that spreads the moment the capsule is broken is a strength not found in Camel.
Plume X Mebius Red Option Review

Taste Characteristics: You can enjoy the refreshing taste of menthol and the brightly expanding sweet apple flavor. 100% natural menthol is used for menthol.
It's a super apple with a different level of flavor and a good blend of sweetness and acidity!
The flavor is quite sweet and addictive, with a sweet and sour taste like a ripe apple, making it one of my favorite options in the series!
Plume X Camel Menthol Red Review

Taste CharacteristicsApple flavor
It is one of my favorite flavors, with a strong menthol sensation but an unbeatable apple sweet and sour taste in the mouth.
The aroma is pleasant all the way through, but the flavor stalls in the second half.

How did you compare Mobius Muscat Green Option and Camel Menthol Muscat Green?
Even with the Muscat flavor, the subjective taste is better with the Mobius option series.
You can't go wrong with Camel for aroma and Mobius for taste.
Plume X Mebius Muscat Green Option Review

Taste Characteristics: Menthol refreshing and freshly popping muscat capsules. 100% natural menthol is used for menthol.
The menthol sensation also complements the freshness of the muscat, providing a refreshing taste.
The muscat flavor that spreads in the mouth as soon as the capsule is broken is a richness that could only be achieved by the Option series, and is definitely a notch above Camel.
Plume X Camel Menthol Muscat Green Review

Taste CharacteristicsMuscat flavor
The most aromatic of all the flavors is the Camel Muscat Green, a delicious flavor with an addictive sweetness of muscat.
The taste and sweetness of muscat are well reproduced, and the mellow flavor with a clean aftertaste can be enjoyed.

How did you compare Mobius Yellow Option and Camel Menthol Yellow?
Both are sour, refreshing menthols, but it is difficult to tell the difference between the citrus flavors.
Both are delicious, but I prefer the more aromatic Camel because there is not that much difference in taste.
Plume X Mebius Yellow Option Review

Taste Characteristics: Menthol refreshing and a fresh aroma that bursts forth from the moment the citrus capsule is crushed. 100% natural menthol is used for the menthol.
The flavor is a perfect combination of citrus acidity and menthol, with a pleasant, refreshing aftertaste.
The menthol is not too strong, so even regular people can enjoy smoking it!
Plume X Camel Menthol Yellow Review

Taste CharacteristicsCitrus flavor with a refreshing aroma
This is another fragrant flavor, a citrus flavor that makes me want to smoke it on a hot day.
There is almost no sweetness, but the citrus citrus stands out, combined with the menthol. And yet it has a strong tobacco flavor, which is great!
Mobius and Camel Smoke Comparison Review Summary

After smoking all 16 flavors, I thought that Mobius regular and menthol have changed significantly with this renewal! That is to say.
The regular flavor Mobius Deep Regular seems to be a clear favorite, but all the flavors were good, each with its own characteristics.
The price is now 500 yen and there are 16 different flavors to choose from, so we hope you will try out the different flavors.
One point that bothered me,No alternative to "Menthol Fresh" in charge of weak mentholThat is to say.
The Ploom X brand manager seemed concerned about this point, but I think there will be more flavors to come, not only for Camel, but also for Mobius itself,Expect the lineup to expand.
Plume X Mobius and Camel blends and innovations.

Although there is no difference in price with this renewal, there are several differences in terms of formulation and innovation, not to mention the difference in taste.
Since Mobius, which used to cost 570 yen, is now 500 yen, Mobius is a better value, but Camel also has its advantages, and it is interesting to compare the two when smoking them!
In this paragraph, we will discuss the differences between Mobius and Camel, other than taste.
Difference between Mobius and Camel (1) With or without lamina formula (regular)

Mebius contains "lamina," a fine and rare part of the tobacco leaf from which the veins and stems are removed, making it a higher grade tobacco in terms of richness and aroma as well as a smooth taste.
In contrast, the Camel has no lamina and a different blend of tobacco leaves to keep the price down, resulting in a slightly coarse taste with a slight tang.
Difference between Mobius and Camel (2) Availability of natural menthol (menthol)

Mebius uses 100% of natural menthol, pushed by JT, to provide a crisp, refreshing sensation.
Camel does not seem to use natural menthol, but to be honest, you can hardly tell the difference, so I recommend choosing it for its coolness and mintiness rather than for the presence or absence of natural menthol.
Difference between Mebius and Camel 3) With or without capsule (flavored menthol)

Mebius flavored menthols consist of the familiar option series of capsules.
The highly reproducible taste of the flavor capsules is unique to the Option series.
Difference between Mobius and Camel (4) Flavored microchip (flavored menthol)

Camel's flavored menthols have no capsule, but instead use a flavor microchip to reproduce the aroma and intense flavor.
It is thanks to this technology that we can enjoy a taste as good as the capsule-equipped options and series.
Summary of Differences between Mobius and Camel
Moebius Series
- Laminar formula (regular)
- Natural menthol 100% (menthol)
- Flavor capsule formulation (flavored)
Camel Series
- Camel proprietary blend
- Equipped with micro flavor chip (flavored)
Backstory on the Difference Between Mobius and Camel

We interviewed Mr. JT Nishino, who worked on the renewal of Mebius, about what he liked about the new Mebius.
Mr. Nishino became involved in the development of the Plume series after working on Mild Seven, the predecessor to Mobius, and he also developed the first Plume cigarette pods.
Mr. Nishino is one of the core members of this Mobius Renewal as the master blender for the entire Plume X Mobius.
How did you manage to lower the price of Mobius to 500 yen, the same as Camel?
- QDoes the fact that you sell a 570 yen product for 500 yen mean that you are using cheap tobacco leaves?
- A
No, we have not reduced the price because we use cheap tobacco leaves. We want many people to try our deliciously renewed cigarettes, and that is why we set our prices low.
I think this is not clear enough, so I would like to introduce Mr. Nishino's story as an addendum.

We, the R&D team, had no restrictions on cost, and the only order we received was to develop a product that tasted great! We had no cost restrictions, and the only order we received was to develop a product that tasted great.
What a surprise! At the time of development, there were no instructions regarding cost, and the top priority was to create delicious flavors!
In other words, it's not about using cheap tobacco leaf, but about making it cheaper, even if it cuts margins, in order to get more people to try it.
How does JT see the difference between Mobius and Camel?
- QNow that you are in the same price range as Camel, how do you think about segregation?
- A
Mobius is characterized by smoothness and a complex tobacco flavor, while Camel is a product that focuses simply on the strength of the smoking experience, with a completely different blend of tobacco sticks.
This is a question that has been on my mind since I heard the news, and I am sure it is a question that readers are wondering about as well.

The difference between the two has become clearer with this renewal, but there are considerable differences in everything from the blend to the flavor, so we encourage you to smoke them and compare them!
Did you know this? It may seem obvious, but Mobius and Camel are blended with completely different tobacco leaves.
Until now, I could only feel it through my senses, but when someone clearly says, "No, it's not! I feel better and more refreshed when I can clearly say, "It's different!
New Mobius blend is ACTIVEBLEND🄬 for Japan
ACTIVEBLEND🄬 What is "for Japan"?
"ACTIVBLEND® for Japan" is a blend developed exclusively for Plume-X's Mobius, which pursues an authentic tobacco feel, developed to solve the lack of heated cigarettes that users feel, and to The taste is suited to the tastes of Japanese users.
Please refer to the following graph to see what the change looks like, as it is a series of small and difficult words.

With this renewal, the new product has a robust flavor that can be enjoyed from the beginning of the smoke, and the flavor continues to the end as the taste fades in the latter half of the smoke.
According to Kohei's review on Holic TV, there was no significant change around the first and second puffs, but the smoking response increased rapidly from about the third puff! He said.
If you feel that conventional Mobius is not enough for you, please give it a try!
Mebius blending is handled by Plume X's "Master Blender".

careerHe joined JT in 2003 and has been involved in the development and planning of cigarettes for 20 years. He is the master blender of all eight Plume X blends.
At any rate, it sounds like the most awesome "Master BlenderThe word "master blender", but JT rarely uses this phrase, and master blenders do not appear in everything.
From what I've been able to find out, this phrase "master blender" is used in the release as "Mobius PrestigeOnly brands limited to airports and duty free stores called
We do not know how many master blenders there are or how many flavors they are responsible for, but it is clear that they have put a lot of "effort" into improving the taste.
Summarize the differences between Mobius and Camel
Although the flavor names indicating the taste are all the same, there is no doubt that Mobius and Camel are different.
Depending on the flavor, I prefer Mobius or Camel...I can't say which one is better! It is hard to say which is better!
However,Mebius, which was originally positioned as one rank above, is undeniably special, with its special tobacco leaves and capsules.
Now that it has been renewed, if you haven't tried Mebius yet, why not give it a try since the price is now 500 yen?
