Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tobacco-containing article and to a method of manufacturing a tobacco-containing article.
  • Tobacco-containing articles like cigarettes, cigarillos, cigars or fine-cut products for self-made cigarettes and snus products, are often aromatised by means of flavourants, as e.g. menthol.
  • flavourants as e.g. menthol.
  • Such flavourants provide an intense flavour and are added in relatively small amounts, preferably as a liquid, e.g. during the preparation and saucing of the tobacco .
  • a disadvantage of this kind of conventional flavouring is the volatility and tendency to loss of many flavourants.
  • the tobacco-containing article according to the invention comprises tobacco and aromatic plant parts which do not derive from the tobacco plant.
  • the amount of the aromatic plant parts is in the range of from 0.5% by weight to 25% by weight, re- lated to the total weight of the tobacco and the aromatic plant parts.
  • the aromatic plant parts have a size in the range of from 0.1 mm to 10 mm or in the range of from 0.2 mm to 6 mm.
  • the size of the aromatic plant parts is defined by a screening method, which is described in detail further below. Shortly, the aromatic plant parts are submitted to a series of vibrating screens according to DIN ISO 3310-1 having generally square meshes of decreasing sizes. If the aromatic plant parts have a size in a given range, virtually all of them will pass a screen having the upper limit of the range as the nominal mesh size, whereas the aromatic plant parts will not pass a screen having the lower limit of the range as the nominal mesh size. Aromatic plant parts passing a mesh diagonally may have a greater length than the nominal mesh size, but they are included by definition.
  • the material used for the aromatic plant parts may include some dust which even passes the smallest mesh size.
  • This dust by definition, is considered as not being a constituent of the aromatic plant parts. Its contribution is generally small.
  • the total size range of the aromatic plant parts is embedded in one of the above ranges, but may have a smaller or even much smaller extension (spread of sizes) . All lower limits of greater than 0.1 mm and all upper limits of less than 10 mm of such spread are expressly disclosed herewith.
  • the amount of the aromatic plant parts is provided as a weight related to the total weight of the tobacco and the aromatic plant parts. Therefore, any major dependency on the actual moisture of the aromatic plant parts or of the tobacco cancels out.
  • the weight ratio shall be determined after equilibration of the aromatic plant parts and of the tobacco for 2 days- at 22 °C and at a relative humidity of 58-60%.
  • the tobacco- containing article according to the invention is an aromatised tobacco- product, in which the aromatic plant parts are natural constituents and not artificial or concentrated aromas. This provides for a natural, maybe somewhat subliminal taste . experience . The addition of artificial flavours, which otherwise would have to be added as alcoholic extracts, is not required, thus avoiding alcoholic constituents. Generally, the relative amount of the aromatic plant parts is greater than that of a conventional concentrated aroma substance, but not so great as to provide an obtrusive taste.
  • the aromatic plant parts are relatively large, e.g. in the range of from 0.1 mm to 10 mm or from 0.2 mm to 6 mm, they generally contain material in addition to any flavourants, e.g. in a plant cell structure, which is able to keep the flavourants and to reduce flavour loosening effects. This may result in a slightly increased flavour shelf life of the respec- tive tobacco-containing article, compared to a conventional tobacco-containing article treated with a liquid aroma concentrate.
  • the relative amount of tobacco is smaller than in a conventional tobacco product. In a cigarette, cigarillo or cigar, this results in a dilution effect regarding tobacco nicotine and other constituents as, e.g., ammonia or nitrate. Examples are provided further below.
  • the pH is increased because of the aromatic plant parts, the taste is generally stronger, although less nicotine is presen .
  • the aroma of the side-stream smoke of, e.g., a cigarette can also be positively influenced and optimised, depending on the selection of the aromatic plant parts.
  • the visual appearance of the aromatic plant parts which in many applications are leaves or leaf parts, implies a natural product and a natural aromatisation .
  • the tobacco-containing article in question can generate a pleasant smell, even before consumption.
  • the aromatic plant parts comprise, e.g., spearmint, peppermint, anise, rosemary, wintergreen, ginger, lemon myrtle, lavender, mate, avocado, ground coffee beans, sage, herbs, teas, or any mixtures thereof.
  • spearmint or peppermint causes a pleasant aroma.
  • a detailed (but not exclusive) list of plants delivering suitable aromatic plant parts is given further below.
  • At least part of the tobacco and of the aromatic plant parts can be included in a combined mixture. That means, e.g. cut tobacco parts and aromatic plant parts (e.g., in the size range of from 0.2 mm to 6 mm or of from 0.1 mm to 10 mm) are mixed together to form a combined and preferably generally homogeneous mixture.
  • At least part of the tobacco comprises reconstituted tobacco.
  • Sheets of reconstituted tobacco can be cut to form cut reconstituted tobacco, which can be mixed, e.g., with aromatic plant parts and also with natural cut tobacco.
  • a reconstituted product from aromatic plant parts, e.g. in a way similar to one of the known processes of manufacturing reconstituted tobacco, so that at least part of the aromatic plant parts in the tobacco- containing article comprises a reconstituted product.
  • a sheet of this reconstituted product can be cut to the desired size of the aromatic plant parts, e.g., in the range of from 0.2 mm to 6 mm or of from 0.1 mm to 10 mm.
  • a reconstituted product which contains a mixture of tobacco parts and of aromatic plant parts.
  • Such reconstituted product can also be produced in a manner analogous to conventional reconstituted tobacco. In this way, at least part of the tobacco and at least part of the aromatic plant parts are included in a combined reconstituted product, which can be cut to the desired size.
  • At least part of the aromatic plant parts is provided in the form of granules, preferably of a size in the range of from 0.2 mm to 5 mm or from 0.5 mm to 2.5 mm.
  • Such granules can be made of pressed aromatic plant parts and optionally additional water, without further additives.
  • Granules comprising aromatic plant parts as well as tobacco are also conceivable.
  • the tobacco-containing article includes a cut top-loaded sheet product, in which a base layer comprises or is made of reconstituted tobacco, wherein the base layer is provided on one side with aromatic plant parts.
  • WO 03/082030 A discloses a method of manufacturing a top- loaded sheet product, in this case a top-loaded cigarette filler, in which a base layer on a basis of a fine fraction of tobacco and cellulose fibres is provided on one side with a fraction of course tobacco, wherein the assembly is subjected to a drying treatment.
  • a base layer comprising reconstituted tobacco can be provided on one side with aromatic plant parts, and after drying this top-loaded sheet product is cut to pieces of the desired size.
  • the tobacco-containing article includes a cut top-loaded sheet product, in which a base layer comprises reconstituted aromatic plant parts, wherein the base layer is provided on one side with aromatic plant parts ;
  • This cut top-loaded sheet product constitutes at least part of the aromatic plant parts. It can be mixed with tobacco and/or reconstituted tobacco and optionally with additional aromatic plant parts. If the aromatic plant parts are included in a reconstituted sheet product, the size of the aromatic plant parts in the range of from 0.1 mm to 10 mm or of from 0.2 mm to 6 mm is to be understood as the size of the aromatic plant part pieces used in the manufacturing process of the reconstituted sheet product.
  • a reconstituted product is produced as generally known in the art .
  • the aromatic plant parts can have a moisture of from 5% to 35%, preferably of from 5% to 20% or of from 7% to 12%, related to the total of the dry weight of the respective aromatic plant parts plus the moisture. After admixture to tobacco, moisture generally equilibrates between the aromatic plant parts and the tobacco, e.g. within a closed packaging. Cigarettes typically have a moisture of from 7% to 14%. Snus typically has a moisture in the order of 35%.
  • the tobacco-containing article according to the invention is provided as a cigarette, e.g., as a full-flavour cigarette having a tar level depending on regulatory ceilings, as a light cigarette having a tar level of up to 7 mg or as an ultralight cigarette having a tar level of up to 2 mg, or as a cigarillo or as a cigar.
  • the tobacco and the aromatic plant parts are contained in the rod of the cigarette, cigarillo or cigar, respectively. This does not exclude, however, that a filter also includes tobacco and/or aromatic plant parts.
  • the tobacco- containing article is provided in the form of pipe tobacco or in the form of fine-cut for self-made cigarettes, packaged in a suitable enclosure.
  • Self-made cigarettes are known as "RYO" (roll -your-own) , which means that the consumer takes a portion of fine-cut comprising tobacco and aromatic plant parts from a package, puts it on a cigarette paper (optionally with an additional filter) , rolls the cigarette paper about the fine-cut and glues the seam of the cigarette paper.
  • MYO make-your-own
  • fine- cut is taken from a package and filled into some apparatus which, upon operation by the consumer, automatically or semi- automatically forms a finished smoking article.
  • the tobacco-containing article is provided as a cigarette, cigarillo or cigar and comprises a rod, e.g. the rod of a cigarette
  • the rod (which comprises tobacco and aromatic plant parts) can be wrapped by a low-sidestream cigarette paper having a base weight in the range of from 35 g/m 2 to 60 g/m 2 , having a porosity of less than 15 CU and including a filler.
  • the filler comprises CaC0 3 of at least 30% and/or MgO of at least 3% and/or Mg(OH) 2 of at least 3%, the percentages being percent per weight of the respective compound, related to the total weight of the low-sidestream cigarette paper.
  • the tobacco-containing article could also, be provided in the form of snus, a product consumed by placing it under the lip for some period of time.
  • the snus comprising tobacco and aromatic plant parts is prepared in a grinded and sieved form.
  • the snus parts can have a size range of, e.g., from 0.1 mm to 1.5 mm or from 0.1 mm to 0.8 mm.
  • the tobacco-containing article comprises cut tobacco and/or cut sheet products.
  • the cut width of the tobacco or the respective sheet product can be that of cut tobacco in conventional tobacco-containing articles, e.g., 0.2 mm to 0.75 mm for fine cut tobacco, greater than 1.5 mm for pipe tobacco, or 0.6 mm to 0.9 mm for typical cigarettes.
  • Such widths can also be suitable to the aromatic plant parts, when used in cut leaf form or cut sheet form.
  • aromatic plant parts which do not derive from the tobacco plant and which have a size in the desired range, e.g., in the range of from 0.1 mm to 10 mm or in the range of from 0.2 mm to 6 mm, are added to the tobacco in an amount in the range of from 0.5% by weight to 25% by weight, related to the total weight of the tobacco and the aromatic plant parts. That means that the tobacco or at least part of the tobacco is cut independently of the aromatic plant parts.
  • uncut, large aromatic plant parts are already added to tobacco parts like leaves, ribs or stems or to a reconstituted tobacco sheet before the cutting step is performed. It is advantageous, however, when the aromatic plant parts are admixed relatively late in the process because they might release a strong aroma which tends to contaminate the manufacturing equipment .
  • aromatic plant parts preferably cut ones
  • aromatic plant parts can be added during treatment of the cut tobacco, e.g., during blending or flavouring.
  • the invention is described in more detail, also by means of examples.
  • the aromatic plant parts to be examined are moisture-conditioned at a relative humidity of (70 ⁇ 2)% and at a temperature of (22 ⁇ 1) °C for 48 h. If the particles were too dry, they would break during sieving, which would deliver erroneous results.
  • the moisture-conditioned aromatic plant parts are submitted to a stack of vibrating screens according to DIN ISO 3310-1 hay- ing meshes of decreasing sizes. If the aromatic plant parts have a size distribution in a given range, virtually all of them will pass a screen having the upper limit of the range as the nominal mesh size, whereas the aromatic plant parts will not pass a screen having the lower limit of the range as the nominal mesh size. Individual aromatic plant parts passing a mesh diagonally may have a greater length than the nominal mesh size, but they are included by definition. On the other hand, the material used for the aromatic plant parts may include some dust which even passes the smallest mesh size. This dust, by definition, is considered as not being a constituent of the aromatic plant parts. Its contribution is generally small .
  • the screening machine For screening leaves, the screening machine performs horizontal vibrations of 15 mm with a frequency of 270/min for 5 minutes (instead of 10 minutes). Mesh sizes of 1.18 mm, 2.36 mm and 4 mm are used. For screening granulates, the screening machine runs for 1 minute, and mesh sizes of 1.6 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.0 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.25 mm and 0 mm are used.
  • a size distribution is to be determined with a higher accuracy, a stack of several screens can be used. In case the number of screens exceeds the capability of the screening machine, the size distribution can be determined sequentially.
  • a large variety of plant species can be used as sources for the aromatic plant parts according to the invention. Spearmint, peppermint, anise, rosemary, wintergreen, ginger, lemon myrtle, lavender, mate, avocado, ground coffee beans, sage as well as herbs and teas in general have already been mentioned above.
  • the appropriate plant parts may derive from leaves, blossoms, fruits, roots, bark, etc. Mixtures of aromatic plant parts from different species are conceivable as well.
  • Table 1 includes a plurality of plant species which may be particularly useful for the purposes of the invention:
  • Cinnamon (cortex) Cinnamomu spec Cinnamon (cortex) Cinnamomu spec .
  • Example 1 Spearmint Spearmint (Mentha spicata) contains some (but not much) menthol, as well as carvone, pulegone, limonene and esters. After equilibration at 22 °C and 60% relative humidity, a sample of spearmint leaves had a relative moisture of 10.0%. Here and in the following, all relative moisture contents are related to the total of the dry weight (determined after oven treatment at 82°C for 3 h; "Horo" method) and the moisture.
  • a mixture with American blend tobacco was prepared, which contained 10% by weight of spearmint leaves and 90%. by weight of tobacco. After equilibration at 30°C and 75% relative humidity, the mixture had a relative moisture of 18.5%. Under the same equilibration conditions, the pure tobacco had a relative moisture of 19.1% and the pure spearmint sample a relative moisture of 13.7%.
  • the size distribution of the leaves of two ' different samples of spearmint leaves was determined by means of the screening method described above, using mesh sizes of 1.18 mm, 2.36 mm and 4 mm.
  • Example 2 Peppermint Peppermint (Mentha piperita) contains menthol, menthone, cineol, tanning agents and flavonoids.
  • the size distribution of the granules of this sample was determined by the screening method described above.
  • Table 2 presents the fraction of the total sample of 402.34 g retained by a screen of a given mesh size (mesh sizes of 1.6 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.0 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.25 mm and 0 mm).
  • Table 2 shows that essentially all of the granules have a size in the range of from 0.25 mm to 1.2 mm. The contribution of the particles passing the 0.25 mm mesh (dust) is negligible. The distribution peaks at about 0.5 mm.
  • Example 3 two other samples of spearmint and peppermint were investigated. In both samples, the aromatic plant parts had a granular form. After equilibration at 22°C and 60% relative humidity, the spearmint sample had a relative moisture of 7.5% and the peppermint sample of 8.5%. The size distributions of the granules, obtained as described above, are shown in Table 3.

  • Cigarettes containing 2% and 5% of lavender ⁇ Lavandula offici- nalis) blossoms (related to the total weight of lavender and tobacco) were produced according to Example 4. The cigarettes were smoked by an expert panel to evaluate their taste properties. While the 2%-lavender sample was judged to have a slightly soapy and perfume-like taste, lavender taste was clearly identified in the 5%-sample.
  • Both versions were also machine-smoked in an experimental stainless-steel chamber. After smoking was finished, the air in the closed chamber was thoroughly mixed by fans. A trained smell panel was asked to evaluate the smoke in the chamber us- ing a standard questionnaire. It was found that smoke intensity remained unchanged compared to a standard cigarette while the smoke smell was judged to be less intense and more pleasant for the 2%-lavender sample. A similar effect was noted for the 5%-sample, but in contrast to the 2%-sample, a distinct lavender smell was also recognized.
  • Example 10 Tobacco/lavender with low-sidestream paper Cigarettes containing 2% lavender blossoms (related to. the total weight of lavender and tobacco) were produced according to Examples 4 and 5, but instead of a conventional cigarette paper, a low-sidestream (LSS) cigarette paper was used.
  • the paper had a porosity of 6 CU, a base weight of 45 g/m 2 and a filler content of 45% calcite.
  • the smoke smell in an experimental chamber was evaluated as in Example 9. The panel found that not only smoke intensity was reduced compared to a conventional cigarette but also the smoke smell was more pleasant and less irritating.
