Description

Additive with moss aroma style characteristics and cigarette containing additive

Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of tobacco, and particularly relates to an additive with moss aroma style characteristics and a cigarette containing the additive.

Background

With the international cigarette inhibition call and the increasing concern of cigarette consumers on the self health, the low-harm cigarette becomes the mainstream of the cigarette in the future world, but the harm reduction is accompanied with the loss of the cigarette aroma and the deterioration of the comfort level, while the cigarette flavoring and charging can set off and supplement the cigarette aroma, increase the smoke concentration, improve the taste, remove and cover miscellaneous gas, reduce the irritation, also can endow the product with the characteristic aroma with beautiful appearance, highlight the personalized style of the cigarette product, and the research, development and application of the cigarette flavoring and charging are becoming one of the most key technologies for keeping the cigarette aroma in the harm and tar reduction work. The smoking satisfaction and pleasure of the cigarettes are improved, and the technical problem to be solved urgently in the existing cigarette aroma-increasing and moisture-keeping technology is solved.

The natural moss aroma perfume in the market mainly comprises tree moss or extract and absolute oil products of oak moss, and has the difference of raw material varieties caused by different factors such as soil, climate, growth environment and the like, so that the quality stability of the product cannot be guaranteed; meanwhile, in the preparation process, the obtained product is more or less mixed with ineffective components such as pigments and vegetable wax which influence the quality of aroma by mainly adopting separation and enrichment means such as organic solvent extraction, steam distillation and the like; in addition, the extract and the absolute oil also often contain some components and heavy metals which cause allergy to human bodies, thereby burying potential safety hazards for the product quality safety of food and daily chemical industries.

At present, in the prior art, some additives with moss aroma style characteristics are prepared by a method of compounding a plurality of components.

CN103333743A discloses moss scent essence consisting of 17 standards and 2 solvents, which has moss scent style and contains some components which do not contribute to scent effectively.

CN107354007A, CN107616547A and CN107510092A disclose tree moss aroma additives consisting of 2 standard substances of 2, 4-dihydroxy-3, 6-dimethyl methyl benzoate and ethyl 2, 4-dihydroxy-6-benzyl formate and a solvent, wherein the 2 standard substances all have obvious tree moss aroma.

A synthetic spice technical manual (see synthetic spice technical manual, Liu Tree text and the like, China light industry press, 2009, 1 month, page 136) lists that 25 parts of orcinol monomethyl ether and 75 parts of methyl 2, 4-dihydroxy-3, 6-dimethylbenzoate are matched for use, the prepared compound spice has vivid natural oak moss fragrance, but the compound spice prepared by 2 standard products with oak moss fragrance only has the style similar to the oak moss fragrance, has rough fragrance and has strong chemical smell.

Although the additive with the moss aroma style characteristic is prepared by the technical scheme, the preparation process is complex, and the additive is prepared by compounding various standard substances and solvents, contains components which obviously do not contribute to aroma, and has rough aroma and strong chemical smell.
