MINTIA BREEZE is a large-tablet mint range with six currently stocked YUBI100 flavors spanning fruit-forward sweetness to stronger cooling. Crystal Silver has the highest official refresh level, while Fresh Lemon and Fresh Peach are the mildest. Every option is sold as eight identical 30-tablet packs, not a mixed assortment.

Which MINTIA BREEZE flavor should you choose?
The practical difference is the balance between sweetness, fruit character and cooling. Asahi Group Foods publishes a five-point “refresh level” for the range. It is a relative manufacturer scale, not an independent test. Among the six stocked options, Crystal Silver is highest at 3.5, Clear Plus Mild follows at 2.5, Refresh Blue and Shiny Pink are both 2, and the two Fresh fruit varieties are 1.
| Flavor | Refresh level | Official positioning | Shopify stock |
|---|---|---|---|
| Refresh Blue | 2 / 5 | Refreshing sweetness with stronger cooling | 10 |
| Shiny Pink | 2 / 5 | Fruity sweetness with a refreshing finish | 10 |
| Crystal Silver | 3.5 / 5 | Restrained sweetness and stronger cooling | 10 |
| Clear Plus Mild | 2.5 / 5 | Mild green mint with green tea and flavor capsules | 10 |
| Fresh Lemon | 1 / 5 | Lemon fruit-mint with juice powder | 10 |
| Fresh Peach | 1 / 5 | Peach fruit-mint with juice powder | 9 |
Fresh Grape is an active flavor on the same Shopify product page, but it had zero inventory at the time of review, so it is not included in this six-flavor comparison. Live availability can change after publication.
Refresh Blue
Refresh Blue is the baseline mint-focused choice in this group. The manufacturer describes it as having refreshing sweetness and stronger cooling, while assigning it a refresh level of 2. It uses the same 30-tablet, 22g large-tablet format as the other options and is sold here as eight identical packs.
Ingredients: Sweeteners (sorbitol, aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound, acesulfame K), flavoring, sucrose fatty acid esters, silicon dioxide and gardenia color.
Nutrition per 22g pack: 70 kcal; protein 0.088g; fat 0.08–0.8g; carbohydrate 21g; sugars 0g; salt equivalent 0g.
Shiny Pink
Shiny Pink keeps the same refresh level of 2 but shifts the official description toward fruity sweetness. That makes it the closest alternative to Refresh Blue for shoppers who want the same published cooling level with a fruit-oriented profile. “Fruity” is the manufacturer’s description; no independent tasting was performed for this article.
Ingredients: Sweeteners (sorbitol, aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound, acesulfame K), sucrose fatty acid esters, flavoring, silicon dioxide and safflower color.
Nutrition per 22g pack: 68 kcal; protein 0g; fat 0–0.6g; carbohydrate 21g; sugars 0g; salt equivalent 0g.
Crystal Silver
Crystal Silver has the highest official refresh level among the six stocked options: 3.5 out of 5. Asahi Group Foods describes it as less sweet, with a clear flavor and stronger cooling. Choose it when the published cooling scale matters more than fruit character. It is not the strongest product in the entire current BREEZE range; that comparison applies only to the six variants stocked here.
Ingredients: Sweeteners (sorbitol, aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound), flavoring, sucrose fatty acid esters and silicon dioxide.
Nutrition per 22g pack: 71 kcal; protein 0.066g; fat 0.1–1.2g; carbohydrate 21g; sugars 0g; salt equivalent 0g.
Clear Plus Mild
Clear Plus Mild sits between the 2-level options and Crystal Silver with an official refresh level of 2.5. The manufacturer identifies mild green mint, green tea polyphenol, a cooling capsule and a eucalyptus-flavor capsule. This is also the only stocked option in this comparison whose current ingredient list explicitly includes gelatin.
Ingredients: Sweeteners (sorbitol, aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound, acesulfame K), flavoring, sucrose fatty acid esters, silicon dioxide, green tea extract, colors (safflower yellow and gardenia); contains gelatin.
Nutrition per 22g pack: 70 kcal; protein 0.04–0.4g; fat 0.07–0.7g; carbohydrate 21g; sugars 0g; salt equivalent 0g.
Fresh Lemon
Fresh Lemon is one of the two mildest stocked options on the official scale, rated 1 out of 5. It is a lemon fruit-mint containing freeze-dried lemon juice powder, vitamin C and citric acid. Those are compositional facts from the current manufacturer listing, not health or performance claims.
Ingredients: Lemon juice powder (made in Japan); sweeteners (sorbitol, aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound, acesulfame K), sucrose fatty acid esters, silicon dioxide, malic acid, citric acid, flavoring, vitamin C, tartaric acid and safflower color.
Nutrition per 22g pack: 75 kcal; protein 0.088g; fat 0.2–2.1g; carbohydrate 21g; sugars 0g; salt equivalent 0g; vitamin C 220mg. Citric acid is listed as 330mg at the time of manufacture.
Fresh Peach
Fresh Peach also has an official refresh level of 1, pairing the large-tablet format with peach juice powder. The current manufacturer listing identifies vitamin C and vitamin B6 in the formula. Because peach-derived juice powder is present, shoppers avoiding peach should check the delivered package carefully before consumption.
Ingredients: Peach juice powder (made in Japan); sweeteners (sorbitol, aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound, acesulfame K), sucrose fatty acid esters, acidulant, silicon dioxide, vitamin C, flavoring, vitamin B6 and safflower color.
Nutrition per 22g pack: 78 kcal; protein 0.13g; fat 0.2–3g; carbohydrate 20g; sugars 0g; salt equivalent 0g; vitamin B6 0.23mg; vitamin C 110mg.
Ingredients compared
| Flavor | Distinguishing listed ingredients | Label point |
|---|---|---|
| Refresh Blue | Gardenia color | Contains aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound |
| Shiny Pink | Safflower color | Contains aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound |
| Crystal Silver | No acesulfame K listed in the current formula | Contains aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound |
| Clear Plus Mild | Green tea extract and flavor capsules | Gelatin is listed |
| Fresh Lemon | Lemon juice powder, vitamin C and acids | Contains aspartame/L-phenylalanine compound |
| Fresh Peach | Peach juice powder, vitamins C and B6 | Peach-derived ingredient is listed |
“Not listed” refers only to the current manufacturer ingredient statement and does not guarantee absence through reformulation or cross-contact. All six current formulas list aspartame as an L-phenylalanine compound. Always read the delivered package if an ingredient, allergen or dietary restriction is important to you.
How the 8-pack listing works
The Shopify product page has one flavor selector. Selecting Refresh Blue, for example, purchases eight Refresh Blue packs—not one pack of each flavor. Each pack contains 30 tablets and weighs 22g. The full order therefore contains 240 tablets and 176g. All six compared variants were priced at ¥1,570 when checked, but the live product page is the source for current price and stock.
The listing uses separate SKUs for every flavor, so stock can differ even when the price is the same. Fresh Peach had nine units available while the other five compared flavors had ten each. Fresh Grape remained visible as an option but was sold out and excluded from the main comparison.
Selection guide
- For the highest published cooling level among these six: Crystal Silver.
- For mint with moderate published cooling: Refresh Blue.
- For fruity sweetness at the same level as Refresh Blue: Shiny Pink.
- For mild green mint and the listed capsule combination: Clear Plus Mild.
- For a mild fruit-mint profile: Fresh Lemon or Fresh Peach.
- If avoiding gelatin: Clear Plus Mild is the variant whose current formula explicitly lists gelatin; verify every delivered label before deciding.

Bottom line
Crystal Silver is the clearest choice when the highest official refresh level among the stocked options is the priority. Fresh Lemon and Fresh Peach sit at the mild end, while Refresh Blue, Shiny Pink and Clear Plus Mild cover the middle. Check the live selector before ordering because every flavor has separate inventory.
