A fiber-wrapped smokeless tobacco product includes smokeless tobacco and a plurality of polymeric fibers surrounding the smokeless tobacco. The polymeric fibers can have a basis weight of 5 gsm or less and a diameter of less than 100 microns. In some cases, the polymeric fibers are melt-blown polymeric fibers. In some cases, the polymeric fibers are centrifugal force spun polymeric fibers. A method of preparing a fiber-wrapped smokeless tobacco product includes melt-blowing or centrifugal force spinning a plurality of polymeric fibers to create an polymer deposition zone and passing a body comprising smokeless tobacco through the polymer deposition zone. In some cases, an electrostatic charge can be applied to the plurality of polymeric fibers, the body, or a combination thereof. In some cases, a spin is applied to the body when passing through the polymer deposition zone.

A shisha, heat-not-burn, or combustion product casing including an active ingredient, a shisha, heat-not-burn, or a combustion product including a casing with an active ingredient, or a method of making the same are disclose herein.

A composition is provided, including a gelling agent forming a solid medium, glycerol dispersed in the solid medium, and nicotine dispersed in the glycerol, the composition being a stable gel phase.

A gel composition is provided, including an alkaloid compound, or a cannabinoid compound, or both an alkaloid compound and a cannabinoid compound; glycerol; a viscosifying agent; a hydrogen-bond crosslinking gelling agent; and an ionic crosslinking gelling agent.

The disclosure provides products configured for oral use, the products including compositions comprising a filler component including negatively charged groups and an active ingredient including positively charged groups. The active ingredient can be retained by the filler component at least in part through bonding between the negatively charged groups and the positively charged groups such that active ingredient may be release from the product when positioned within an oral cavity of a consumer.

The use of pectins and/or polymers to prevent nicotine oxidation in tobacco containing products is disclosed. These polymers may be naturally occurring anionic polymers or synthetic polymers. These pectins and/or polymers prevent nicotine from oxidizing into cotinine, nicotine-cis-N-oxide, nicotine-trans-N-oxide, and/or nicotine-1,1-di-N-oxide. Molluscicides, algaecides, pesticides, and stabilized nicotine compositions comprising nicotine and pectin, anionic polymers, or combinations thereof are disclosed.

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 nicotine pouch composition is disclosed, the pouch composition comprising free-base nicotine and having a water content of at least 15% by weight of said pouch composition. Furthermore, an oral nicotine pouch product comprising the pouch composition and a method for manufacturing the oral nicotine pouch product is disclosed.

A nicotine pouched product is disclosed, the nicotine pouched product having a pouch composition and a pouch membrane enclosing the pouch composition, the pouch composition including at least one water-insoluble fiber, water in an amount of at least 15% by weight of the composition, and nicotine, wherein the pouch membrane comprises further nicotine in an amount of at least 15% by weight of a total content of nicotine in the pouched product.

The invention relates to inclusion of one or more sugars or isolated sugars in a smoking article.
