Definitions

• This invention relates to a novel smoking composition.
• This invention particularly relates to a smoking composition for use with a smoking device called a ‘Hookah’.
• flavoured smoking composition is a flavoured smoking composition
• This invention is particularly related the use of a smoking composition for use with a smoking device called ‘Hookah’.
• Hookah is, also known as the narghile, water pipe and hubby-bubbly. Hookahs were first used five centuries ago in India and they are a device still employed today—though not very commonly.
• Hookah is a device which permits the smoking but reduces the harmful effects by means of eliminating excess nicotine by passing the smoke through water.
• the Hookah consists of several sections; the pipe, the head, the body, the hose, and the mouthpiece.
• the pipe is outside the ‘Hookah’ located at its highest point.
• the head is a piece between the pipe and the body. It is made of hard materials in order for it to be resilient. The upper portion is shaped so as to hold the pipe, and this part was decorated with carvings.
• the head is generally made of brass, copper, or bronze. Very special ones are made of silver. Near the point where these are connected to the body, there is a nipple-like protrusion onto which the hose is attached.
• the bottle, or body most often is in the form of a pitcher with a narrow neck and broad belly.
• the bottle contains water, and there is a thin hose descending from the pipe. Because of this hose, the smoke coming in is cleaned somewhat in the water and at least some of the nicotine from the tobacco is eliminated.
• the hose is a flexible tube capable of being bent every which way and is attached to the nipple-like protrusion on the upper portion of the head connected to the body. This serves to conduct the smoke cleansed in the bottle to the mouth.
• Hookah's are used as follows. First the tobacco is set in the pipe and a bit of lit charcoal is placed on top of it. When the mouthpiece at the end of the hose is placed in the mouth and inhaled upon, the air in the space at the top of the bottle passes through the pipe with the smoke and enters the water through the tube attached to it which extends into the water. Cleansed by the water, the smoke collects in the empty space at the top of the bottle and when the ‘Hookah’ hose is sucked upon, the smoke washed and somewhat purified of its nicotine enters the mouth.
• the smoke generated by the hookah has a particularly acrid smell which is obnoxious to the non-smoker and a beginner smoker. It is also desirable to have a stable smoking composition with a more pleasant flavour and smell.
• This invention relates to a flavoured and pleasant smoking composition for hookah.
• Another object is to provide an alternative, natural, healthy material adapted for incorporation in a smoking composition which suppresses the natural strong smell of tobacco and imparts a light vibrant fruity flavour and smell.
• Yet another object of this invention is to provide a smoking composition for a ‘hookah’ which during use has a pleasant smell.
• the present invention relates to a mixture of tobacco and other products that can be used as a pleasant substitute for tobacco.
• the present invention provides both an improved flavoured smoking material and a novel method for its preparation.
• a principal feature of this invention is the smoking composition for hookah having a good smouldering rate, pleasant taste, good aroma and all round satisfying smoking characteristics.
• the end result is the production of a smoking material having acceptable burning and smoke characteristics.
• the principle feature of this invention is the smoking composition having a plurality of flavours and colours. These flavours have to be added at critical stages in the process of manufacture of the composition and in critical quantities to ensure that the flavours remain till the end of the shelf life of the product.
• the tobacco with or without other cellulosic material (bagasse/cellulose fibres/drumsticks/Corn stalks/wheat chaff) are cleaned and sterilized by manual and steam treatment and objectionable foreign particulate matter are removed.
• the cellulosic material is once again sieved to remove any remaining traces of dust.
• the saccharide solution is heated (60-80 degrees Celsius) and when it starts turning light brown, weighed quantity (0.15-0.70 Kg) of flavouring agent such as citric acid is added and mixed with it with the help of a spoon stirrer.
• flavouring agent such as citric acid
• step-6 The solution from step-6 is mixed with a weighed quantity of tobacco and with or without other cellulosic material (14-50 Kg) in a machine. This mixture is allowed to remain as such for 24 hours.
• humectant such as glycerine (10-37 Kg) and colour (0.08-1.10) are taken and mixed together and this mixture is added to the tobacco and with or without other cellulosic material of step-8 and mixed using a spoon stirrer.
• This mixture is allowed to remain as such for 10-15 days where it is mixed thoroughly every day. This is to ensure that they do not settle at one place.
• step 10 Next, measured volume of water (12.52-45 kg) is boiled and measured weight of saccharide (18-65 Kg) is added to it. A portion of the solution (approximately one fourth) is mixed with tobacco and with or without other cellulosic material of step-9.
• flavour (0.88-8 Kg)
• the flavour (0.88-8 Kg)
• a measured quantity humectant such as Propylene glycol (2-0.17) is heated indirectly by placing the container on boiling hot water. This is followed by the addition of a measured quantity of vanilla powder (0.1-0.23), used as flavour enhancer, which is dissolved thoroughly by stirring. This is then added to the mixture of step-10 and mixed. The mixture is then allowed to mature for 3 days.
• humectant such as Propylene glycol (2-0.17)
• the moisture in the final product ranges from 15 to 30% with a brix value (Concentration of sugars) ranging from 45 to 65%.
• composition is then packed in airtight pouches for use as and when required.
• step-6 The solution from step-6 was mixed with 14.2 Kg of tobacco in a machine. This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 24 hours.
• step -9 18.50 Kg of glycerine (humectant) and 0.08 Kg of red colour were taken and mixed together. This mixture was added to the tobacco of step -8 and mixed using a spoon stirrer.
• This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 12 days and it was mixed thoroughly every day. This was to ensure that they do not settle at one place.
• the moisture in the final product was 20% and the brix value was 50%
• composition was then packed in airtight pouches for use.
• step-6 The solution from step-6 was mixed with 23.10 Kg of tobacco-Cellulosic fibre mixture. This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 24 hours.
• step -9 25 Kg of sorbitol (humectant) and 0.26 Kg of brownish red colour were taken and mixed together. This mixture was added to the tobacco-Cellulosic fibre mixture of step -8 and mixed using a spoon stirrer.
• This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 13 days and it was mixed thoroughly every day. This was to ensure that they do not settle at one place.
• the moisture in the final product was 15% and the brix value was 60%
• composition was then packed in airtight pouches for use.
• step-6 The solution from step-6 was mixed with 49.10 Kg of tobacco in a machine. This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 24 hours.
• This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 13 days and it was mixed thoroughly every day. This was to ensure that they do not settle at one place.
• the moisture in the final product was 30% and the brix value was 40%
• composition was then packed in airtight pouches for use.
• step-6 The solution from step-6 was mixed with 5.0 Kg of tobacco in a machine. This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 24 hours.
• This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 13 days and it was mixed thoroughly every day. This was to ensure that they do not settle at one place.
• the moisture in the final product was 15% and the brix value was 35%
• composition was then packed in airtight pouches for use.
• step-6 The solution from step-6 was mixed with 6.0 Kg of tobacco-wheat chaff mixture in a machine. This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 24 hours.
• This mixture was allowed to remain as such for 10 days and it was mixed thoroughly every day. This was to ensure that they do not settle at one place.
• the moisture in the final product was 20% and the brix value was 45%
• composition was then packed in airtight pouches for use.
• the smoking compositions of eaxmples 1-15 were given to various batches of hookah smokers. Unanimously, all smokers were satisfied with the quality of the composition. In the process of smoking, the smoke generated had a pleasant fruity aroma unlike the smoke produced by the conventional smokers of smoking composition. The ash produced was also less smelly and there was over all on an average 10% less ash. Needless to say, inspite of having a satisfactory smoke, the smokers received less nicotine and less tar than they would otherwise receive by smoking conventional smoking compositions.
• the invention provides a flavoured composition for use as a tobacco substitute for aiding in the cessation of tobacco use.
• a primary advantage of the present invention is that it provides a means for people to reduce their addiction for nicotine at relatively low cost.
• the present invention is to minimise the craving a person would normally experience when that person attempts to reduce their use of nicotine containing products or stop using such products altogether. At the same time the invention will strengthen the person's immune system allowing that person to stop smoking tobacco with very little effort.
