5 Gum Cobalt Mint Chewing Gum from Japan

5 Gum Cobalt Mint Chewing Gum is a sugar-coated pellet chewing gum that delivers intense, long-lasting mint flavor. It is classified under tariff item 1704.10.00 as chewing gum, whether or not sugar-coated, because its primary component is a durable gum base intended for chewing rather than consumption as a solid candy.
