What's the difference between Japanese local cigarettes and Japanese export cigarettes?

The differences between Japanese native tobacco and Japanese exported tobacco are mainly in flavor and taste, ingredients and additives, brands and market positioning.

1. Aroma and taste: The aroma and taste of native Japanese cigarettes are different from those exported from Japan. Japanese native tobacco is usually made of traditional Japanese spices and flue-cured tobacco leaves, with soft and light taste and unique flavor. Japanese tobacco exports, on the other hand, pay more attention to the diversity of taste and fragrance, and adopt different formulas and tobacco mixing ratios to cater to the tastes of consumers in different countries and regions.

2. Components and additives: The components and additives of Japanese native tobacco and Japanese exported tobacco are also different. In order to meet the laws and regulations of different countries and regions and the needs of consumers, Japanese export cigarettes usually add a small amount of spices, flavor enhancers and preservatives to increase the taste and shelf life of cigarettes. Japanese native tobacco, on the other hand, is relatively simple and will not add too many ingredients and additives.

3. Brand and market positioning: The brand and market positioning of Japanese native cigarettes and Japanese export cigarettes are also different. Japanese native tobacco is usually dominated by traditional tobacco brands, and the sales channels are mainly in Japan. Japanese cigarettes are mainly exported by international brands, and the sales channels are mainly the international market. Due to the different demand of tobacco market in different countries and regions, Japanese export cigarettes are also targeted for brand and market positioning to improve their competitiveness.
