example one

Loose Clove Cigarette

[0074]A Scott paper towel used as absorbent material was saturated with Clove Bud Oil (manufacturer: Plant Therapy). The saturated absorbent material was placed in a ziploc bag together with five loose Marlboro® black cigarettes (bold flavor). The zip loc was sealed and placed in front of a closed window for ambient light / warmth for two days. After two days, the cigarettes were removed, examined and smoked. The demonstrated a strong, distinct clove flavor indicating successful diffusion of flavor from the absorbent material to the cigarettes.

example two

Loose Menthol Cigarette

[0075]Placed five cigarettes (Marlboro® black, “bold flavor”)) in a foil sachet, together with 15 mg of USP menthol crystals (Spectrum chemical DL-menthol). The bag placed near window to be warmed by ambient flight. After one day, the cigarettes were removed. One was smoked, followed by—for comparison—a Marlboro® Black Menthol Flavor (standard from manufacturer) cigarette. The cigarette flavored with menthol through the current example demonstrated stronger menthol that the standard, Marlboro® menthol cigarette.

example three (

Loose Cassis Cigarette)

[0076]A Scott paper towel used as absorbent material was saturated with Hiram Walker Crème de Cassis. The saturated absorbent material was placed in a ziploc bag together with five loose Marlboro® Black Cigarettes (bold flavor). The zip loc was sealed and placed in front of a closed window for ambient light / warmth for two days. After two days, the cigarettes were removed, examined and smoked. The demonstrated a mild Cassis flavor indicating successful diffusion of flavor from the absorbent material to the cigarettes. We believe a higher alcohol content (or otherwise a more volatile base) would have assisted to better diffuse the flavor into the cigarettes from the absorbent material.

Altria's Marlboro® markets its product as “where the flavor is”—reflecting both Altria's commitment to distinct flavor profiles for its crown jewel brand, and the importance of flavor for the consumer of the various types Marlboro® cigarettes.[0003]As discussed infra, the art of flavoring manufactured smoking articles like cigarettes has a history that is oriented towards robust flavor, consistency in flavor (from one product to the next), stability in flavor (meaning that flavor will not dramatically change over the reasonable stocking life of the product—so as to avoid or minimize...
