A clandestine smoking apparatus for concealing a smoking device includes a body member having an open inhaler end allowing access an interior area and having an igniter end that is closed. A ventilation assembly defines a plurality of vent holes and includes an inner portion positioned immediately adjacent an inner surface of an outer portion and defines a plurality of damper holes. The inner portion is slidably movable to selectively align or cover respective vent holes and damper holes. An igniter member is coupled to the body member and movable between deployed and stowed configurations proximate or displaced from the igniter end, respectively, the igniter member having a plurality of ignition elements operable to light the smoking device when the igniter member is energized. A battery is coupled to the body member and electrically connected to the igniter member and operable to energize the igniter member when actuated.

Described are paper wrappers and smoking articles that can include the paper wrappers. The paper wrapper can include a weak organic acid or salt thereof. The addition of the weak organic acid or salt thereof to the paper wrapper can enhance the sensory characteristics of a smoking article that includes the paper wrapper. For instance, the addition of the weak organic acid can enhance the taste and/or smell of a smoking article that includes the paper wrapper.

An aerosol-generating device (3) comprises an axially extending heating chamber (15) configured to at least partially receive an aerosol-generating article (5). The aerosol-generating device (3) further comprises a heater actuation mechanism (47) configured to move between an engaging configuration and a non-engaging configuration. The heater actuation mechanism (47) is configured to act on a heater (7) in the engaging configuration to operate the heater (7) to generate heat. The heater actuation mechanism (47) is configured to not act on the heater (7) in the non-engaging configuration to stop generation of the heat by the heater (7). The heater actuation mechanism (47) comprises an operating element (57). The operating element (57) is configured to be moved to move the heater actuation mechanism (47) from the non-engaging configuration into the engaging configuration. The aerosol-generating device (3) further comprises a blocking mechanism (59). The blocking mechanism (59) is configured to temporarily block a movement of the heater actuation mechanism (47) from the engaging configuration into the non-engaging configuration or from the non-engaging configuration into the engaging configuration.

There is described an aerosol provision article for use with an aerosol provision device for generating an inhalable medium including an aerosol. The aerosol provision article includes a first chamber for containing a first substance that is heatable to generate an aerosol; a conduit that extends through the first chamber, the conduit having an inlet through which aerosol generated from the first substance can enter the conduit and an outlet through which the aerosol can exit the conduit and a second chamber for receiving a second substance, wherein the second chamber is downstream of the outlet of the conduit. The article is arranged such that in use aerosol exiting the outlet of the conduit passes through the second substance received in the second chamber, and wherein the cross-sectional area of the conduit increases at or towards the outlet.

An aerosol-generation system for a smoking article comprises an aerosol-generating segment and a heat generation segment. The heat generation segment has a length and includes a heat source. The aerosol-generation system for a smoking article also comprises an insulator disposed between the aerosol-generating segment and the heat source of the heat generation segment. Each segment is physically separate and in a heat exchange relationship. The heat source comprises a carbonaceous material.
