Methods and utensils are provided for administering plant extract(s) at controlled amount via smoking, as well as for providing complexes of honey and plant extracts. Plant extract(s) may be used in utensils that are inserted into a smoking appliance, and have indications of the compounds and/or characteristics of the plant extract. Upon smoking the smoking appliance, the plant extracts may be inhaled in pre-defined amounts. Using plant extracts in such way enables standardization of amounts and components thereof, and may be particularly applicable to cannabis oils. Furthermore, complexes of honey and plant extracts may be provided by letting bees step on or be soiled by plant extracts on their way into the beehive, causing them to incorporate the plant extracts into the honey preparation process. Resulting complexes may be a preferable and particularly beneficial way of administering plant extracts, e.g., cannabis extracts.

There is provided an oral smokeless moist snuff product comprising: (a) an oral smokeless moist snuff composition comprising: —disintegrated plant material, —one or more salts selected from the group consisting of sodium chloride, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium sulphate, potassium sulphate, sodium lactate, potassium lactate and any combination thereof, and —water, wherein the total amount of the one or more salts is within the range of from about 15% by weight to about 35% by weight based on the total weight of water and total weight of the one or more salts in the oral moist smokeless snuff composition, wherein the total amount of moisture is within the range of from about 35% by weight to about 60% by weight based on the total weight of the oral smokeless moist snuff composition; (b) particles comprising a flavorant and a cellulose-derivatized polymer selected from the group consisting of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, methyl cellulose and any combination thereof, wherein the amount of said particles is within the range of from about 1% by weight to about 25% by weight based on the total weight of the oral smokeless moist snuff product.

A pouched product adapted for release of a releasable component therefrom is provided herein. The pouched product can include a water-permeable fabric pouch formed so as to define a cavity therein, and a composition contained within the cavity of the water-permeable fabric pouch, the composition including one or more releasable components that are released from the composition under mouth conditions and that are capable of movement through the water-permeable fabric pouch. The composition includes nicotine and at least one particulate non-tobacco material. The pouched product also includes at least one capsule contained within the cavity of the water-permeable fabric pouch, the capsule having a capsule wall surrounding an inner payload comprising at least one botanical.

A pouched product adapted for release of a water-soluble component therefrom is provided herein. The pouched product can include an outer water-permeable pouch defining a cavity containing a composition that includes a water-soluble component capable of being released through the water-permeable pouch and has a surface area, wherein the outer water-permeable pouch can include a nonwoven web including fibers, wherein at least a portion of the fibers are selected from the group consisting of polyester fibers in an amount of 20% or greater based on the total weight of the fibers, tobacco-derived viscose, sisal fibers, corn silk fibers, long wood fibers, MCC fibers, and combinations thereof.

A method for producing a flavor source that supports an inhaling flavor component contained in a tobacco raw material, comprises: step A of performing an alkali treatment on the tobacco raw material; and step B of arranging an alkali-treated tobacco raw material and a flavor base material configured by non-tobacco material within a same space in such a way that the alkali-treated tobacco raw material and the flavor base material are maintained in a non-contacting state, thereby inducing the flavor base material to support the inhaling flavor component emitted as a vapor phase from the tobacco raw material.

A smoking article has an outer surface and a plurality of frangible microcapsules provided on the outer surface, wherein the microcapsules are capable of being manually ruptured by a consumer to release an odorant encapsulated therein. The smoking article preferably comprises a wrapped tobacco rod; and a filter attached to the wrapped tobacco rod by tipping paper, a mouth end portion of which is “over tipped” with a band or strip of “Peel and Sniff” microcapsules and/or a band or strip of “Scratch and Sniff” microcapsules.

The herein-disclosed invention is a liquid, humectant composition comprising about 70%-88% distilled water, about 7%-14% food-grade USP propylene glycol, about 5%-10% ethanol, about 4%-8% raw honey, about 0.15%-0.16% Cascade hop oil, about 0.5%-0.9% citric acid, and about 0.06%-0.4% sodium benzoate. The composition should be prepared with USP, food-grade ingredients at room temperature, atmospheric pressure. Super-critical extraction of the Cascade hop oil ingredient is recommended.

Once prepared, between 88.8 ml and 600 ml of said composition should be dropped onto a vented humidor disc for absorption: said saturated disc should then be placed with desired plant matter into a sealed plastic baggie, optionally inside a sealed humidor box. Said plant matter should reach an equilibrium humidity between 60 and 75% and should receive lasting preservative and aromatic effects.

Provided are methods and compositions for reducing a throat irritation caused by inhaling vapors or particles of at least one material selected from the group consisting of cannabis, cannabinoids, tobaccO, a herb or combinations thereof, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof at least one transient receptor potential (TRP) channel modulator prior to or simultaneously with said inhaling said vapors or particles of said at least one material. Further provided are methods and compositions comprising at least one TRP channel agonist, and/or at least one TRP channel partial agonist for treating pain-selective analgesia via TRP channels; methods for treating local pain; methods for treating migraine and symptoms thereof; and methods for treating osteoporosis and symptoms thereof.

An orally-enjoyable tobacco product includes a portion of smokeless tobacco comprising an active ingredient and either: (1) a collection of tobacco particles at least partially enclosed by a coating comprising a water-soluble non-crosslinked component and a substantially water-insoluble cross-linked component, or (2) a pouch comprising smokeless tobacco enclosed in a water-permeable wrapper. The active ingredient is selected from the group consisting of a mercaptan, camphor, borneol, isoborneol, bornyl acetate, isobornyl acetate, mono-bornyl succinate, mono-isobornyl succinate, mono-bornyl formate, and mono-isobornyl formate. The active ingredient is present in an amount effective to reduce or eliminate the sensory irritation arising from the smokeless tobacco.
