A conical rolling paper assembly for rolling a cigarette includes a rolling paper for rolling into a cigarette for smoking. The rolling paper is pre-formed into a conical shape having a narrow end that has a diameter is less than a wide end. Moreover, the rolling paper is rollable into a cone of a pre-determined diameter for having smoking material placed therein. The wide end of is inhaled through by a user and the narrow end is ignited for smoking. A filter is insertable into the wide end when the smoking material is positioned in the cone defined by the rolling paper. The filter has an air aperture extending therethrough to be inhaled through by the user for smoking the smoking material in the rolling paper.

A smoking product and method of making thereof for the consumption of a smokable substance. The product has a hollow conical shape that allows for the easy insertion of smokable substances. Additionally, the conical or frustoconical shape of the product provides for larger amounts of smokable substances in the end of the product the consumer lights, resulting in an initial slower prolonged burn. Additionally, the product includes a supporting filter tip with a frangible capsule contained therein and is packaged for sale in packaging in an unfilled state allowing a user to remove the product from the packaging, fill it with the user's selected custom smokable filler and form a custom smoking product.

A device for filtering smoke, in particular tobacco and/or cannabis cigarette filters, comprising a jacket, in which jacket there are provided at least a first portion, a second portion and a third portion, the second portion being arranged between the first portion and the third portion, wherein in the first section a first nonwoven filter material, in the second section a porous filter material, and in the third section a second nonwoven filter material being provided in the third section; wherein a fourth section is provided in the jacket, wherein the third section is arranged between the second section and the fourth section, and wherein the fourth section is arranged such that, when flowing through the jacket, a pressure drop across the fourth section is lower than a pressure drop across the third section.

An aerosol-generating system is provided, including: an aerosol-generating article including a rod of aerosol-forming substrate, a filter downstream of the rod, the rod and the filter being assembled within a wrapper, and a ventilation zone located on the wrapper and including apertures extending through the wrapper; and an aerosol-generating device including distal and mouth ends, a housing including a peripheral wall defining a device cavity to removably receive the article at the mouth end, and a heater to heat the substrate when the article is received within the device cavity, such that, when the article is received within the device cavity, the ventilation zone is located within the device cavity and a portion of an internal surface of the peripheral wall overlying the zone is spaced apart from the article to define a ventilation chamber within the peripheral wall.

An aerosol-generating article includes a foamed tobacco-containing aerosol-generating substrate and a plurality of non-tobacco granulated flavour particles incorporated into the aerosol-generating substrate which is provided in the form of a semi-solid matrix. The granulated flavour particles can be distributed evenly in the semi-solid matrix or the granulated flavour particles can be provided in an increasing gradient density towards the longitudinal central axis of the aerosol-generating article.

An electrically heated smoking article includes a filter rod, an aerosol medium rod stacked at a lower end of the filter rod and including an aerosol medium that generates an aerosol by heating and a moisture absorbent accommodating or absorbing the aerosol medium, and a wrapping portion surrounding and wrapping the filter rod and the aerosol medium rod to maintain a stack structure. The aerosol medium, including glycerin and a thickener, is maintained in a semi-solid or solid state in a first temperature range including room temperature and is in a liquefied state in a second temperature range higher than the first temperature range. The glycerin vaporizes in a third temperature range higher than the second temperature range to generate an aerosol. The thickener does not vaporize in the third temperature range but remains in the moisture absorbent.

An aerosol-generating article is provided, including: a rod of aerosol-generating substrate; a downstream section provided downstream of the rod of aerosol-generating substrate, the downstream section including at least one hollow tubular element abutting a downstream end of the rod of aerosol-generating substrate; an upstream element provided upstream of the rod of aerosol-generating substrate and abutting an upstream end of the rod of aerosol-generating substrate, an upstream end of the upstream element defining an upstream end of the aerosol-generating article, the upstream element having a length from 3 millimetres to 7 millimetres; and a ventilation zone at a location along the hollow tubular element, the ventilation zone configured to enable ingress of ambient air into a lumen of the hollow tubular element, and a distance between the ventilation zone and the upstream end of the upstream element being from 26 millimetres to 33 millimetres.

An aerosol-generating article is provided, including: a rod of aerosol-generating substrate having a length of between 8 mm and 16 mm; an upstream element provided upstream of the rod, the upstream element having an external diameter of between 6 mm and 8 mm; a mouthpiece element provided downstream of the rod; and a hollow tubular element provided between the rod and the mouthpiece element, an internal volume defined by the hollow tubular element being at least 300 cubic millimetres, and a combined length of the hollow tubular element and the mouthpiece element being between 24 mm and 32 mm. An aerosol-generating system including an aerosol-generating article and an aerosol-generating device is also provided.

An aerosol-generating article is provided, including: a rod of aerosol-generating substrate having a length of between 8 mm and 16 mm; an upstream element provided upstream of the rod of aerosol-generating substrate, the upstream element having an external diameter of between 6 mm and 8 mm; a hollow tubular element provided downstream of the rod of aerosol-generating substrate, an internal volume defined by the hollow tubular element being at least 300 cubic millimetres; and a ventilation zone configured to provide ventilation into the aerosol-generating article, the ventilation zone being located between 12 mm and 20 mm upstream from a downstream end of the aerosol-generating article. An aerosol-generating system including an aerosol-generating article and an aerosol-generating device is also provided.

A method of manufacturing smoking articles in a smoking article manufacturing machine, including supplying the smoking article manufacturing machine with dual length filter rods, each dual length filter rod containing a capsule of a first type and a capsule of a second type, using the smoking article manufacturing machine to cut patches of tipping paper from a web of tipping paper, using the smoking article manufacturing machine to wrap one of said patches of tipping paper about each dual length filter rod to attach a rod of smokable material to opposite ends thereof, and using the smoking article manufacturing machine to cut each wrapped dual length filter rod to form a first and a second smoking article, the first smoking article having a first filter rod segment formed from the dual length filter rod and the second smoking article having a second filter rod segment formed from the dual length filter rod, and in which the first filter rod segment includes the first type of capsule and the second filter rod segment includes the second type of capsule, where the web of tipping paper includes a first lateral portion and a second lateral portion, the first lateral portion having different visual or tactile mark or indicia than the second lateral portion.
