Definitions

  • This invention concerns the technical field of tobacco products, in particular a moist snuff tobacco composition comprising a thickening agent, a method for obtaining a said composition and a composition obtainable from said method.
  • Moist snuff and other tobacco products presently available on the market are difficult to form. Their formability is very limited which is a drawback for consumers wishing to form a certain amount of tobacco product, preferably moist snuff, into a dainty and inviting piece of tobacco product. Also the water keeping characteristics of the tobacco products of today have drawbacks.
  • the present invention solves one or more of the above problems by providing according to a first aspect a moist snuff composition comprising at least one water-soluble thickening agent whereby it has an ability to be formed into cohesive strings or thin plates that can be rolled up on a reel depending on the amount of thickening agent wherein the thickening agent is Xanthan gum or a mixture comprising Xanthan gum.
  • a moist snuff composition comprising at least one water-soluble thickening agent whereby it has an ability to be formed into cohesive strings or thin plates that can be rolled up on a reel depending on the amount of thickening agent wherein the thickening agent is Xanthan gum or a mixture comprising Xanthan gum.
  • Said method for obtaining a moist snuff composition comprises adding at least one water soluble thickening agent wherein the thickening agent is Xanthan gum or a mixture comprising Xanthan gum to a moist snuff composition, preferably snus, which comprises a tobacco raw material.
  • tobacco raw material or “tobacco” (used interchangeably in the present description) embrace any tobacco type available or mixtures thereof.
  • tobacco types are: Rustica, Virginia, Burley, Oriental and Kentucky.
  • the tobacco is tobacco in powder form, moist snuff or finely divided tobacco.
  • Most preferred the tobacco is moist snuff produced essentially in accordance with GothiaTek ® (trademark owned by Swedish Match) standard.
  • the smoke less tobacco composition (or smoke less tobacco product) according to the first aspect of the invention is preferably a chewing tobacco, nasal snuff or a moist snuff product, most preferred a moist snuff product.
  • the smoke less tobacco composition (or smoke less tobacco product) according to the first aspect of the invention is especially preferred a snus or a moist snuff product manufactured in accordance with GothiaTek ® standard.
  • the thickening agent is selected from the group consisting of xanthan gum (E415) (or derivatives thereof), or mixtures comprising xanthan gum such as Thixogum STM or Thixogum XTM Thixogum STM and Thixogum XTM thickening agents are (trademark owned by Colloides Naturels, Inc) e.g. provided by Kemiflor AB. Further said thickening agents is water soluble.
  • thickening agents may also additionally be added such as alginates (E 400 to 405), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) (E466), other types of cellulose (E460 till E465), pectins (E440), carrageenan (E407), Furcellaran, Tragacanth gum (E413), Karaya gum (E416), and Gellan gum (E418) or combinations (mixtures) thereof.
  • the thickening agent is preferably added in the form of an aqueous solution or dispersion giving 0.00001-20 % (weight) of thickening agent in the end product.
  • the thickening agent is then treated before added to the tobacco as follows:
  • the thickening agent is added, preferably by dusting, into an aqueous solution under heating and vigorous stirring, preferably when a vortex appears in the solution.
  • the thickening agent may also be "dusted" without using a carrier, i.e. a liquid as set out above, into the tobacco.
  • the tobacco is then treated so that a large surface area is available for the thickening agent dust to blend in.
  • the desired characteristics of the end product may also be amplified by adding compounds comprising potassium and/or calcium ions.
  • Snus i.e. one example of a moist snuff, produced in accordance with GothiaTek ® standard is manufactured using essentially the following method set out below:
  • the moist snuff is manufactured in three major steps, a) grinding (cutting) and b) processing (see also figure 1 ).
  • the tobacco is broken up, dried and fed into a grinder.
  • the ground tobacco is sieved into three particle size fractions, coarse, medium and fine.
  • Pre-set quantities of the three fractions are fed into a mixer silo where the tobacco flour is mixed.
  • the tobacco flour is fed into a storage silo, from which flour is automatically taken to the processing operation.
  • Each type of tobacco mixture is kept in a separate silo.
  • Manufacturing of moist snuff is preferably done in a batch operation.
  • the whole process may be computer controlled and can be run day and night, all week around.
  • tobacco flour is automatically weighed and fed into the process blender.
  • Water and salt is added to the batch under stirring.
  • the batch is then heated and kept heated up for a specified time, which varies with brands.
  • Temperature and stirring is preferably controlled by a process computer program. This part of the process is traditionally named "sweating" but is more close to a pasteurisation process. After pasteurisation the moist snuff batch is cooled down and the rest of the ingredients are added.
  • the thickening agent may be added, in accordance with the present invention, at any time during the above processing steps.
  • the thickening agent(s) is (are) preferably added at the end of the processing.
  • the thickening agent(s) is (are) further preferably added in the form of a solution as set out above.
  • the power of the mixing and the time period for the mixing may be crucial for obtaining an optimal product.
  • Some of the above mentioned water may be used to form an aqueous solution of the thickening agent before adding said agent to the tobacco during the above process. This may enhance the water keeping characteristics of the end product, preferably a moist snuff.
  • the water-binding characteristics of the thickening agent(s) may also help to prohibit microbiological growth.
  • a moist snuff composition wherein it is an essentially homogenous moist snuff composition and the thickening agent is present in a range of from 0.00001 to 20 % in the finished product.
