An exemplary smoking article including a smoking rod filled with a combination including tobacco filler material and cellulose filler material. The tobacco filler material and cellulose filler material can be arranged such that the constituent material particles are generally distributed throughout the smoking rod, the tobacco filler material at least partially surrounds the cellulose filler material along a length of the smoking rod, and/or the cellulose filler material particles have a higher concentration along a central axis of the smoking rod than the tobacco filler material particles.

A smokeless tobacco product is provided that includes a tobacco material in the form of a tobacco extract, a particulate tobacco material, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the smokeless tobacco product is substantially translucent. Methods for making and using the smokeless tobacco product are also provided. The smokeless tobacco product can include isomalt, maltitol syrup, particulate tobacco, and a translucent tobacco extract prepared by ultrafiltration.

An apparatus for enrobing a product portion can include at least one polymer spray head adapted to create at least one flow of polymeric fibers to produce at least one polymer enrobing zone and a conveyor system adapted to move at least one product portion from at least one position below at least one polymer enrobing zone and to at least one position above at least one polymer enrobing zone to drop each product portion through one or more polymer enrobing zones a plurality times at different orientations to enrobe each product portion with polymeric fibers.

A container containing a powder system including a first plurality of particles having a particle size of about 10 micrometers or less, and a second plurality of particles having a particle size of about 20 micrometers or greater, and a single aperture extending through the container. A system including an inhaler article and the container is disclosed also.

A recreational smoking composition comprises 15 to 25 weight percent apple pomace as a fibrous substrate; 40 to 55 weight percent glycerin as a humectant and smoking agent; 20 to 30 weight percent fructose as a sweetener; and 3 to 12 weight percent flavor, preservative, and coloring combined. As such the present disclosure is directed to a composition comprising a nicotine-free substitute for tobacco and, more particularly, the composition may be a smoking substitute for tobacco that would otherwise be used in a hookah pipe.

An electrically heated smoking article includes a filter layer, a hollow tube layer stacked at a lower end of the filter layer, an aerosol-forming substrate layer stacked below the hollow tube layer and including a mixture of a solid moisture absorbent and a liquid aerosol-forming substrate capsule, and a wrapping portion surrounding the filter layer, the hollow tube layer, and the aerosol-forming substrate layer to maintain a stack structure. The liquid aerosol-forming substrate capsule includes a liquid aerosol-forming substrate at a center, a first emulsifier layer completely surrounding the liquid aerosol-forming substrate, and a first coating material layer covering a surface of the first emulsifier layer.

A method of enrobing a product portion in polymer strands includes mounting at least one product portion on a holding device and passing the at least one product portion through a polymer enrobing zone. The polymer enrobing zone can include a flow of polymeric fibers produced by a polymer spray head. The polymer fibers can wraparound the at least one product portion to produce an enrobed product portion. The holding device can hold the at least one product portion by passing at least partially through the body of the product portion. At least a portion of the holding device is removed from the enrobed product portion. In some cases, the at least one product portion includes smokeless tobacco.

A smokeless tobacco product is provided that includes a tobacco material in the form of a tobacco extract, a particulate tobacco material, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the smokeless tobacco product is substantially translucent. Methods for making and using the smokeless tobacco product are also provided. The smokeless tobacco product can include isomalt, maltitol syrup, particulate tobacco, and a translucent tobacco extract prepared by ultrafiltration.

The invention relates to a process for producing food ingredients from Stevia rebaudiana plant and their use in food products, beverages and other consumables. Obtained compositions are useful as flavors, sweeteners, antioxidants, and other functional ingredients.

A smoking article is provided herein, which includes a power source, a control component adapted to control power delivery from the power source, a heating element, and an aerosolizable composition comprising at least one flavorant derived from a plant of the humulus lupulus and/or asimina triloba species or at least one flavorant comprising a synthetic compound responsible for the aroma and/or flavor of an artisan food item. The disclosure further provides a method for providing a smoking article with flavors or aromas of craft beer or flavors or aromas of artisan foods.
