Problems solved by technology

However, it is likely for the cigarette with a filter having a flavor component directly incorporated therein to be unable to ensure stable flavoring because of the migration of the flavor component from the filter section to another tobacco material section due to the adsorption equilibrium within the package through the distribution stage of the cigarette product.
The cigarette with a filter containing po

[0047]Sucrose fatty acid ester (HLB value: 11) as an emulsifying agent was added in an amount of 0.5 parts by weight to 59.5 parts by weight of purified water, and agitated at about 60° C. for 10 minutes to thereby dissolve the ester in the water. Thereafter, 40.0 parts by weight of dextrin (dextrose equivalent value: 18) was added to the solution and dissolved therein. The temperature of the thus obtained solution was adjusted to 50 to 60° C., and 10.125 parts by weight of menthol was added to the solution and dissolved therein. Emulsification of the solution was carried out by means of a TK HOMO Mixer at 72,000 rpm for 10 minutes, thereby obtaining a spray liquid. The spray liquid consisted of an emulsion of 0.2 μm particle diameter. This spray liquid while maintaining its temperature at 50 to 60° C. was fed to a spray dryer (spray dryer MDL-050M manufactured by Fujisaki Electric Co., Ltd.), and spray dried at 180° C., thereby obtaining desired flavor-releasing particles. The part...
