Methods for creating concentrated plant material solution are disclosed. Some examples include combining at least a concentrated plant material, at least one terpenoid compound, and a solvent to define a mixture; heating the mixture, wherein a temperature of the mixture is heated above a boiling point of the solvent and wherein the temperature of the heated mixture does not exceed a lower one of a boiling point of the concentrated plant material and a boiling point of the at least one terpenoid compound; and maintaining the temperature of the mixture above the boiling point of the solvent and below the lower one of the boiling point of the concentrated plant material and the boiling point of the at least one terpenoid compound until the amount of solvent remaining in the mixture reaches a predetermined concentration level.

An oil-infused plant product and method of infusing is provided. The method includes placing dried botanical matter with an alcohol and oil mixture into a pressurizable container, pressurizing and heating the pressurizable container, allowing the botanical matter and oil/alcohol mixture to remain in the container for a development time period while the oil is drawn into the botanical matter, and removing the oil/alcohol mixture via a vacuum. The botanical matter may be a processed plant matter, such as a blunt wrapper, or may be a natural or minimally processed plant matter, such as dried edible plants, smokable herbs, or herbs suitable for brewing (such as tea, coffee, and herbal tea components). The oil may be any nontoxic oil.

The present disclosure provides an environment-friendly wrapping-free heat-not-burn naked tobacco product. The tobacco product includes, in percentage by mass, 20-60% of mixed powder, 10-40% of a porous carrier material, 15-50% of a tobacco extraction mixture, 1-10% of a particle aggregation inhibitor and 10-40% of a binder. The environment-friendly wrapping-free heat-not-burn naked tobacco product can effectively inhibit emission of harmful substances in smoke; meanwhile, a paper tube, a filter tip and a blocking piece which are required for a traditional cigarette are not needed, the naked tobacco product is utilized, the difficulty of a production process is lowered, raw materials are reduced, and the tobacco product is more environmentally friendly. According to the tobacco product with the proportion of components, the smoke amount is abundant, the fragrance is good, smoke is soft and fine, offensive firewood smell is avoided, irritation is small, the remaining taste makes people comfortable.
