Abstract: An example smoking article includes a smoking rod filled with a filler material. The filler material includes tobacco material and non-tobacco leaf material, and the filler material is distributed along a length of the smoking rod. In certain examples the tobacco material, non-tobacco leaf material, or both may be treated with one or more additives, and in other examples the filler material may not include additives. The smoking article can be formed as a cigarette, cigarillo, or cigar.

Abstract: An exemplary smoking article including a smoking rod filled with a combination including tobacco filler material and cellulose filler material. The tobacco filler material and cellulose filler material can be arranged such that the constituent material particles are generally distributed throughout the smoking rod, the tobacco filler material at least partially surrounds the cellulose filler material along a length of the smoking rod, and/or the cellulose filler material particles have a higher concentration along a central axis of the smoking rod than the tobacco filler material particles.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a smoking article having a burn portion and a mouth portion. The burn portion includes a smoking rod filled with a smokeable filler material formed almost exclusively of cellulose material. The mouth portion includes either a filter portion with or without an interface or a tip with an interface. The mouth end may include an orthonasal property and the interface may store an additive.

Abstract: An e-vaping device including a cartridge, a power source, a mouth-end insert, and at least one removable segment removably attached to at least one of the cartridge, the power source, another removable segment, and the mouth-end insert. A method of preparing an ingredient matrix including providing a plurality of pellets of a matrix material in a sealed container and adding in the sealed container at least one of a flavorant, a taste compound, an aroma, an acid, a vapor former, tobacco and nicotine. The at least one of a flavorant, taste compound, aroma, acid, and nicotine being absorbed by the plurality of pellets of the matrix material.

Abstract: An e-vaping device having a cartridge including an outer container extending in a longitudinal direction, a conduit within the outer container, a storage portion including pre-vapor formulation ingredients, the storage portion being between the outer container and the conduit and including a plurality of chambers, a plurality of wicks, each of the wicks being in communication with each of the chambers and the conduit and being configured to deliver one or more ingredients in each of the chambers to the conduit, and a coil heater located in the chimney and operatively coupled to each of the wicks. The e-vaping device also includes a power supply source coupled to the cartridge, the power supply source is configured to heat the wicks to vaporize ingredients located in respective chambers and generate a vapor corresponding to each of the vaporized ingredients.

Abstract: A cartridge for an e-vaping device includes an ethanol-free gel formulation. The ethanol-free gel formulation includes a vapor former, water, and a biopolymer. The biopolymer may be included in an amount ranging from about 0.01% by weight based on the weight of the ethanol-free gel formulation to about 2.0% by weight based on the weight of the ethanol-free gel formulation. The biopolymer may be one or more of agar, kappa carrageenan, gelatin, sodium alginate, gellan gum, pectin, and combinations thereof. The cartridge also includes a heater configured to heat liquid from the gel formulation to a temperature sufficient to release a liquid/semi-liquid component from the gel, which component thereupon forms a vapor.

Abstract: An e-vaping cartridge includes an inner tube defining a channel. A heater is positioned near a first end of the channel, and a hydrogel is located near a second end of the channel. The hydrogel includes a flavorant that releases flavors and/or aromas to the vapor as the vapor passes the hydrogel.
