Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an infusion product for making a beverage, such as a tea or tea-like drink. In order to produce the composition of the present disclosure, plant materials are contacted with a solvent to remove an extract. The remaining plant materials are then formed into a fibrous structure or network, such as a sheet or fibrous layer. The extract may be further treated or concentrated and then reapplied to the plant materials. In accordance with the present disclosure, the resulting sheet or layer is then reduced to discrete pieces having a unique particle size distribution. Through the process of the present disclosure, a composition is produced that not only has a minimal amount of fines and dust, but can also have a relatively low bulk density.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an infusion product for making a beverage, more specifically to a plant-based composition for making a beverage, and to a herbal and/or vegetable composition or bouquet garni. The plants are fruits, herbs, medicinal plants, tea, vegetables and/or spices. The invention further relates to a method for producing said compositions or infusion product, its use for making a (tea) beverage, and a (tea) beverage so obtained. Further, the present invention relates to a fiber-web, preferably a tea bag, made from said fruits, herbs, medicinal plants, tea, vegetable and/or spices.

Abstract: Methods and systems may provide for identifying a first user selection of one or more objects in an interface, and determining a tag associated with a second user selection. The first user selection can be a single-click selection and the second user selection may correspond to one of a tagged object and a tag. In addition, a tag relationship may be created between the one or more objects of the first user selection and the tag associated with the second user selection. If the second user selection is previous to the first user selection, the tag relationship can be created in response to the first user selection. If the second user selection is subsequent to the first user selection, the tag relationship may be created in response to the second user selection.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a product for at least one of medicinal, cosmetic, coloring or dermatologic use. The product comprises a fibrous plant product and a plant extract which is applied thereto. Further, the invention relates to a corresponding method for producing said product and its use in at least one of medicinal, cosmetic, coloring or dermatologic products or applications or treatments. The plants used may be all plants comprising one or more substances of interest to achieve a desired medicinal, cosmetic, coloring or dermatologic effect.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an edible product, which comprises a fibrous plant product and a plant extract applied thereto. Further, the invention relates to a corresponding method for producing said edible product and its use in at least one of food, food supplement, medicinal, cosmetic, well-being, nutraceutical or phytotherapeutical applications. The plants used may be all plants comprising one or more substances of interest for an edible product.

Abstract: A smoking article formed from a tobacco material that includes tobacco non-isometric precipitated calcium carbonate microparticles is provided. The non-isometric microparticles typically have a mean diameter of from about 50 nanometers to about 3 micrometers, in some embodiments from about 80 nanometers to about 1 micrometer, in some embodiments from about 100 nanometers to about 400 nanometers, and in some embodiments, from about 200 nanometers to about 300 nanometers. Such non-isometric particles may have an elongated morphology so that the length of the microparticles is greater than the diameter. This may be characterized by the “aspect ratio” of the microparticles (length divided by width), which is typically from about 1 to about 15, in some embodiments from about 2 to about 12, and in some embodiments, from about 3 to about 10.
