Definitions

  • This invention concerns the technical field of tobacco products, in particular a method for manufacturing a moist snuff composition comprising at least one gelling agent.
  • a composition obtainable by said method is also provided and a container containing one or more composition(s).
  • 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.
  • portion moist snuff is a method for facilitating use of moist snuff in portion form, and these portion moist snuff pinches are generally surrounded by a paper material.
  • portion moist snuff pinches are generally surrounded by a paper material.
  • WO 2004/056218 discloses a tobacco composition disclosed in WO 2004/056218 and WO 2004/0118422 wherein a moist snuff composition comprising at least one thickening agent is disclosed.
  • a method for manufacturing said composition is also disclosed.
  • a gelling step is however not used in said method, whereby only the thickening characteristics of thickening agents are used.
  • the product obtainable from said method is further essentially water soluble.
  • WO 2004/056219 comprises a non-chewable smokeless tobacco and a gum base.
  • Moist snuff "snus", manufactured according to GothiaTek ® Standard is also known.
  • There is however a problem when forming a pinch of moist snuff as this pinch when applied into a human mouth will deteriorate in the mouth, which gives the person using said pinch an unpleasant appearance and the used pinch is also difficult to dispose of.
  • a personal mobile moist snuff can for use of keeping used pinches (a disposal unit), may not be useful when disposing of said used pinches.
  • the present invention solves one or more of the above problems by providing according to a first aspect a method (whereby gelling characteristics of gelling agents are utilized) for manufacturing a tobacco product for oral use comprising the following steps:
  • a moist snuff composition obtainable by a method according to the first aspect is provided.
  • tobacco raw material or “tobacco” (used interchangeably in the present description) embrace any tobacco type available or mixtures thereof. Examples of tobacco types are: Rustica, Virginia, Burley, Oriental and Kentucky.
  • the tobacco raw material may be dry, e.g. as a powder, or it may also comprise water, when using the method according to the first aspect. If said tobacco raw material is a moist tobacco raw material, such as moist snuff, then the addition of water may be omitted if the water already present is sufficient for the method according to the first aspect.
  • the tobacco raw material is moist snuff, which already comprises water.
  • the tobacco raw material is "snus” or moist snuff produced in accordance with GothiaTek® (trademark owned by Swedish Match) standard.
  • portion or “pinch”, which are used interchangeably, embraces a portion (amount) suitable for use in the oral cavity of a human being.
  • gelling agent embraces any gelling agent, and which also may be a gelling thickening agent, or mixtures thereof for use in food products which enables the characteristics and consistency of the moist snuff composition according to the second aspect of the present invention.
  • the gelling agent is preferably selected from the group of compounds consisting of agar (E406), xanthan gum (E415), locust bean gum (Carob) (E410), gelatin, carrageenan (E407), 1-carrageenan, K- carrageenan, starch (which may be modified),gellan, methyl cellulose, carboxy methyl cellulose(CMC), alginates, konjac or derivatives of said compounds or mixtures comprising said compounds, preferably said compound is 1-carrageenan, K-carrageenan or agar.
  • the gelling agent is preferably added in the form of an essentially dry powder, or also in the form of a water solution, giving 0.00001-30 % (weight/weight) of gelling agent in the end product.
  • the gelling agent is added, preferably by dusting, into the tobacco raw material, which preferably already comprises water.
  • the gelling agent may instead be added by immersing the formed tobacco raw material (with water and optionally additives added) into a solution of the gelling agent. Said solution with gelling agent may preferably be hot. If applying the gelling agent as a solution the end product becomes more flexible (bendable).
  • the desired characteristics of the end product may also be amplified by adding compounds comprising potassium and/or calcium ions, especially if r carrageenan, K-carrageenan or alginates are used as gelling agents.
  • Moist snuff i.e. one preferred example of a tobacco raw material, produced in accordance with GothiaTek® standard (snus) is manufactured using essentially the following method set out below:
  • the moist snuff is manufactured in two major steps, a) grinding (cutting) and b) processing.
  • the tobacco bale 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.
  • step a) comprises the following steps:
  • step a) comprises the following steps:
  • step a) comprises the following steps:
