A device and method for converting a consumable into an aerosol with high heat without burning the consumable by packaging the consumable containing an internal susceptor inside a housing. The consumable can be in the form of a compressed powder. A first end of the housing can be capped with an end cap and a second end of the housing can have a mouthpiece. The housing containing the consumable and the susceptor can be placed inside a case with an inductive heating element configured to heat the susceptor. Heating the susceptor results in the consumable being released as an aerosol for inhalation.

An aerosol generating article includes a wrapper, an aerosol generating substrate positioned in the wrapper to form a rod having a mouth end and a distal end upstream of the mouth end, and an airflow barrier positioned in the wrapper. The airflow barrier includes a deformable capsule which substantially prevents airflow from the distal end to the mouth end when in an undeformed state. The deformable capsule is deformable by a user into a deformed state which permits airflow from the distal end to the mouth end.

Provided are a fragrance-containing sheet including LM-pectin for smoking articles, which includes moisture, thickening polysaccharide, low methoxyl pectin (LM-pectin), and fragrance, such that a smoking article including the fragrance-containing sheet gives off fragrance consistently during smoking.

A process for producing a reduced tobacco-specific nitrosamine (TSNA) tobacco plant comprising reducing and/or eliminating anatabine biosynthesis in wild-type tobacco plant. In addition, use of such plants for discovery of molecular markers that are closely linked with genes required for anatabine biosynthesis and for discovery of genes required for anatabine biosynthesis. In addition, a smoking composition, a smoking article and a smokeless tobacco oral delivery product contain the tobacco material.

A smoking product and method of making thereof for the consumption of a smokable substance. The product has a hollow conical shape that allows for the easy insertion of smokable substances. Additionally, the conical or frustoconical shape of the product provides for larger amounts of smokable substances in the end of the product the consumer lights, resulting in an initial slower prolonged burn. Additionally, the product includes a supporting filter tip with a frangible capsule contained therein and is packaged for sale in packaging in an unfilled state allowing a user to remove the product from the packaging, fill it with the user's selected custom smokable filler and form a custom smoking product.

A smoking article may include a cigarette incorporated within an electrically powered aerosol generating device that acts as a holder for that cigarette. The smoking article possesses at least one form of tobacco. The smoking article also possesses a mouth-end piece that is used by the smoker to inhale components of tobacco that are generated by the action of heat upon components of the cigarette. A representative smoking article possesses an outer housing incorporating a source of electrical power (e.g., a battery), a sensing mechanism for powering the device at least during periods of draw, and a heating device (e.g., at least one electrical resistance heating element) for forming a thermally generated aerosol that incorporates components of tobacco. During use, the cigarette is positioned within the device, and after use, the used cigarette is removed from the device and replaced with another cigarette.

A wrapping material for a smoking article is formed from a web that includes extracted pieces of cocoa husk combined with web building fibers. The web has a basis weight of from about 20 gsm to about 80 gsm and a permeability of from about 10 Coresta to about 100 Coresta. The wrapping material has a pleasant and neutral smell and taste. The wrapping material is tobacco and nicotine free and can be used as a carrier for flavorings or aerosol delivery agents.

The hybrid aerosol-generating element for use in an aerosol-generating article comprises a liquid retention material for holding an aerosol-forming liquid and a solid aerosol-forming substrate arranged next to the liquid retention material.

A combustion retarding material including a combustion retarding salt and an amorphous solid material as well as consumables having the combustion retarding material, and non-combustible aerosol provision systems having such consumables. Methods for manufacturing the combustion retarding material and the use of a combustion retarding salt and an amorphous material to retard combustion.
