[0088] Such as figure 1 and figure 2 The smoking articles shown have several common components and these have been identified with the same reference numerals. exist figure 1 and figure 2 , sections of a smoking article are dissected to illustrate internal details of the smoking article.

[0089] Each smoking article generally comprises an elongated cylindrically wrapped tobacco rod 1 attached at one end to an axially aligned elongated cylindrical mouthpiece 4. A strip of tipping paper 6, which may or may not be transparent, joins the wrapped tobacco rod 2 and the mouthpiece 4 in a conventional manner. The tipping paper surrounds the entire length of the mouthpiece and the adjacent portion of the wrapped tobacco rod 2 . A number of circular perforations are provided through the tipping paper 6 at positions along the mouthpiece 4 to allow ambient air to mix with the mainstream smoke produced during combustion of the wrapped tobacco 2 .

Abstract

A smoking article (10, 20) comprising a flavor release segment (12). The flavor release segment (12) comprises a plug of fibrous material surrounded by a substantially air-impermeable wrapping material and a plurality of solid menthol particles distributed within the plug of fibrous material. Fibrous materials include randomly oriented fibers. Preferably, the smoking article (10, 20) comprises a mouthpiece (4), wherein said mouthpiece (4) comprises a flavor release segment (12).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a smoking article comprising a flavor release segment capable of delivering menthol into the mainstream smoke or aerosol of the smoking article. The invention also relates to a mouthpiece for a smoking article comprising such a flavor release segment. Background technique [0002] Filter cigarettes typically include a tobacco cut filler rod surrounded by a paper wrapper and a cylindrical filter aligned in end-to-end relationship with the wrapped tobacco rod. The filter is usually attached to the wrapped tobacco rod by a tipping paper tape which wraps around the filter and adjacent portions of the wrapped tobacco rod. Vents in the form of circumferential perforations in the tipping paper are typically placed along the filter at a location such that mainstream smoke produced during combustion of the wrapped tobacco rod mixes with the surrounding air. [0003] In conventional filter cigarettes, the filter usually consist...
