As the temperature rises and the days become longer, the need for refreshing breath and a mood boost becomes vital. On June 30, 2026, Lotte Co., Ltd. based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, will introduce two new products under its gum brand ACUO— the
Aqua Marine Mint and
Salty Lemon. Both innovations promise a cooling sensation that will elevate your summer experience.
Exciting New Offerings
ACUO Aqua Marine Mint
The Aqua Marine Mint gum marks ACUO’s first venture into the flat gum category. Infused with a unique
breath-refreshing EX capsules, each bite releases a delightful wave of minty freshness. Furthermore, it features
watering chips that enhance its fresh flavor with a clean, crisp aftertaste. The combination of lemon flavor chips and a hint of salt creates an irresistible blend, making it easy to enjoy with a balanced sweetness that lingers just the right amount.
ACUO Salty Lemon
On the other hand, the Salty Lemon gum introduces ACUO’s first fruit juice-filled gum. This innovative product also includes the
breath-refreshing EX capsule along with a
watering mint technology, filling your mouth with a burst of refreshing hydration. The initial tartness from the lemon is complemented perfectly by a subtle hint of salt, ensuring a refreshingly clean finish.
