Smoking articles are disclosed herein. In one aspect, a smoking article includes a heat source configured to generate heat upon ignition thereof, a first substrate material having an aerosol precursor composition associated therewith and a first end being fixedly engaged with the heat source, and an aerosol delivery component having opposed first and second ends, the first end of the aerosol delivery component being engaged with the second end of the first substrate material. In some aspects, the aerosol delivery component includes a second substrate material having the aerosol precursor composition associated therewith and being disposed about the first end of the aerosol delivery component and a tobacco material disposed between the second substrate material and the mouthpiece, the aerosol precursor composition associated with the first and second substrate materials being configured to produce an aerosol in response to the heat generated by the ignited heat source.

An aerosol-generating article is provided, including a combustible heat source; an aerosol-generating substrate adjacent the heat source; a freshener segment upstream of the heat source and at least partially covering an upstream end of the heat source, the freshener segment including a segment of support material having an annular shape defining a channel extending through at least a part of the segment between upstream and downstream ends thereof, and at least one freshener delivery element contained within the channel and being detachable from the heat source to expose the heat source prior to use of the article; and a wrapper circumscribing at least the freshener segment and the heat source, including a line of weakness extending around the wrapper and overlying an upstream edge of the heat source so that the freshener segment is detachable from the heat source by breaking the wrapper along the line of weakness.

A method of constructing a cigar includes the providing of a plurality of frusto-conically shaped tubes, each tube being of a smokable material such as a spirally wrapped layer of tobacco material. The tubes are nested, one tube inside the other tube. The nested tubes are then attached to a mouthpiece having a socket that is internally threaded. The nested tubes and mouthpiece are packaged either filled with tobacco filler material, partially filled, or unfilled in a container.

A tobacco product comprising a mouthpiece and a cigarette stem. One extremity of the cigarette stem is connected to the mouthpiece. The cigarette stem has multiple tobacco segments connected in series. The tobacco segments include a tobacco material and a phase changing material. The phase changing material is provided in the tobacco material.
