Abstract

A flavoured article 1 for application to a smoking article 9 is placed on the smoking article, so that when the smoking article is lit, the flavoured article is warmed and the flavour is released. The flavoured article 1, preferably in the form of a patch, is applied to a sub-region of a mouth end portion of the smoking article 9, the mouth end portion not being intended for combustion, with the flavoured article not enveloping the mouth end portion. The mouth end portion may be the filter end 11 of a cigarette. The flavoured article preferably includes a matrix layer (2, figures 1 & 2) and an adhesive layer (3, figures 1 & 2). The flavourant may be distributed throughout the matrix layer. A method of making the article, in which the adhesive layer is added after manufacture of the matrix layer, is also claimed, as is the use of the flavoured article to provide a desired taste sensation upon smoking. The flavoured article is preferably provided separately from the smoking article, and is applied to the smoking article by the user. The flavourant may be menthone.

Description

Flavoured Article, Preparation and Uses Thereof The invention relates generally to a discrete flavoured article, preparation and uses thereof and in particular to a flavoured article for application to a smoking article.
In use, the flavour will he released when the smoking article is lit and the flavoured article is warmed. In particular, the flavour is drawn into main stream smoke as part of the smoking action of the consumer, i.e. as the consumer sucks the smoke from a lit smoking article they also suck in the flavour. The heat from the smoke helps to speed this process up.
Flavour and aroma are important characteristics of smoking articles and a number of methods have been used to incorporate flavourants. If permitted by local regulations, flavourants can be applied to smoking articles by the smoker after purchase, and this confers the significant advantage that the smoker can choose to apply a variety of flavours or aromas to a single "unflavoured" cigarette, circumventing the need to buy multiple flavoured cigarettes.
Methods that have previously been proposed to apply flavourant after purchase include, for example, smearing a flavourant-containing ointment, paste or adhesive over the exterior of a cigarette.
In a first aspect, there is provided a flavoured article for application by a consumer to a sub-region of a mouth end portion of a smoking article, wherein said portion is not intended for combustion, and wherein the article does not substantially envelop said portion of the smoking article.
In a second aspect, a method of making a flavoured article as described above is provided.
io According to a third aspect, use of a flavoured article is provided whereby the article is applied to a smoking article to provide a desired taste sensatioii upon smoking.
The favoured article may comprise two layers -an adhesive layer and a matrix layer.
The adhesive may he self-adhesive. Alternatively, it could be moisture activated.
The flavoured article has a smaller surface area than the mouth end portion of a smoking article not intended for combustion, so that a single flavoured article does not substantially cover or envelop said portion of the smoking article when it is applied to the smoking article. This makes the flavoured article easy to handle and apply. Preferably, the flavoured article covers less than ahout 500/0 of the surface area of the aforementioned portion of the smoking article. More preferably, the flavoured article covers about lO°/a to ahout 2O°/o of the surface area of said portion of the smoking article. The relatively small surface area of the flavoured article confers the additional advantage that it is cost-effective to apply the adhesive layer to the entire underside of the matrix layer, rather than just one border, so that it is not necessary for the flavoured article to join ends and/or adhere to itself when being fixed to the smoking article. In addition, the relatively small surface area of the flavoured article may minimise the alteration of the characteristics of the smoking article, such as changing the porosity of the smoking article. The adhesive layer may cover the complete area of the article. Alternatively, it may he intermittent, or it may he applied to the perimeter of the article.
The matrix layer may comprise a fiavourant. The flavourant may be added to the matrix at the time of preparation of the matrix, and/or at the time of preparation of the matrix layer. Alternatively, the fiavourant may he added to the matrix after preparation of the matrix, the matrix layer or even after the matrix layer has been adhered to the smoking article. In these latter cases, the flavourant can he applied by the consumer to the adhered matrix.
Alternatively or in addition, the flavoured article may comprise a flavourant layer.
The flavourant layer is preferably between the matrix layer and the adhesive layer.
The flavourant layer may comprise a flavourant. The flavourant layer may he added after formation of the matrix layer, preferably prior to the addition of the adhesive layer. This is an attractive arrangement when the fiavourant is in solid form, such as menthol crystals.
The flavourant is present at sufficiently high levels in the flavoured article so that, when the flavoured article is warmed, the flavourant is present at levels that can be detected in the mainstream smoke. At the same time, the flavourant is present at sufficiently low levels in the flavoured article so that, when the flavoured article is warmed, the flavourant is present at levels that are not overpowering to the smoker and that allow the smoker to add further flavoured articles to add more flavour to the mainstream smoke, if desired.
The flavourant may be in liquid phase or may he in solid phase, preferably in liquid phase. The flavourant preferably comprises ground menthol crystals or menthol crystals in powder form when in solid form. When in liquid phase, the flavourant may be encapsulated and/or semi-encapsulated. In an embodiment, the flavourant is in a liquid form and is added at 0.8% by weight and is preferably menthone and/or one or more stereoisomers thereof. Tn another embodiment, the flavoured article comprises up to 5 mg menthol.

The matrix may comprise starch and/or one or more polysaccharides. The matrix may comprise adhesive and may comprise pectin, sorhitol, adhesive and water.
The matrix may have sufficient elasticity to maintain flexibility to avoid rupture of the matrix and the suhsec1uent release of the fiavourant.
The matrix may have sufficient capacity to carry the required amount of ilavourant, without requiring a surface area that significantly covers the filter section of the smoking article.
Tt is preferable for the thickness of the matrix layer to he at least about 1 mm, preferably xvi thin a range of about I tntn to 3 mm.
It is preferable for the weight of the matrix layer to he: UI) to 100 mg, up to 150 mg, or up to 200 mg. The preferred weight of the matrix layer is up to 150 mg.

The colouring is preferably food grade colouring. In addition, patterns or logos could he incorporated.
Optionally, the matrix may contain pockets of air, or other expandable materials, to impart a sound element when the matrix is applied to the smoking article and the smoking article is lit. The air pockets may he formed by incorporating a solid into the matrix that expands on beating to create the air pockets. The air pocket forming solid may he, for example, menthol crystals in powder form.
The adhesive preferably exists as a layer separate from the matrix layer, so that, in use, the adhesive layer contacts the smoking article. In an embodiment, the adhesive coats the entire surface of the matrix layer, although the matrix layer may also he part-coated with adhesive. The adhesive may he added after rhe matrix layer has been formed.
The flavoured article may he self-adhesive, for ease of application. The adhesive may have sufficient tack to adhere to and maintain the position of the flavoured article on the smoking article, and sufficiently low tack to allow the flavoured article to be peeled off and repositioned if necessary.
