In addition, both the ISMOD Mini and ISMOD Jet are marked as "best used with BUDDZ tobacco sticks." The BUDDZ official website also features a heated tobacco device, the BUDDZ DEVICE, which closely resembles the ISMOD Mini in terms of design and specifications.

As early as the tobacco exhibition held in Dortmund this September, 2Firsts had already noticed the ISMOD brand and its products. The ISMOD II PLUS, in particular, became the brand's main highlight at the exhibition, featuring a battery device combined with two tobacco stick heating devices.

It is worth noting that the ISMOD Mini and ISMOD Jet were previously only available on the official ISMOD websites for regions such as Europe, the UK, and Jordan. Their launch on the US e-cigarette distributor site Vapesourcing makes them the only two HTP products currently listed on the site.

Japan Survey Finds 49.5% Would Cut Tobacco Use if Prices Rise, 64.6% Show Interest in Nicotine-Free Alternatives
Japan Survey Finds 49.5% Would Cut Tobacco Use if Prices Rise, 64.6% Show Interest in Nicotine-Free Alternatives
A September online survey commissioned by Japanese smoking-accessories company Lightec found that 49.5% of respondents would consider reducing tobacco use if prices rose further, while 25.1% would consider switching to cheaper brands and 14.5% would consider using or combining alternatives such as vapes and nicotine-free herbal sticks. Another 64.6% expressed some level of interest in such alternatives. The survey covered 1,088 respondents aged 20 to 70 and was conducted by a company that sells NICOLESS nicotine-free vaping and herbal-stick products, meaning its findings should not be treated as representative of Japan's smoking population.

EU Tobacco Tax Reform Stalls as Malta Withholds Support Despite Backing From 26 States
EU Tobacco Tax Reform Stalls as Malta Withholds Support Despite Backing From 26 States
EU finance ministers failed to reach agreement on tobacco excise reform at the November 9, 2026 Economic and Financial Affairs Council (ECOFIN) meeting in Brussels. The Irish Council presidency's compromise secured support from 26 of the EU's 27 member states, but Malta withheld consent, preventing the Council from reaching a general approach requiring unanimity. The reform would raise minimum taxes on conventional tobacco and bring e-cigarette liquids, heated tobacco and nicotine pouches into a common EU minimum excise framework. Finland and Estonia accepted further concessions during the meeting, while the presidency proposed separating the inclusion of nicotine pouches in the framework from setting their precise minimum tax rates. Another compromise would allow ten qualifying member states until 2036 to meet certain tobacco excise requirements. Ireland intends to continue negotiations in December.
