Delivering Sensations

摘要

When we were invited to write this article and start thinking about the content it soon became evident how challenging it was. Tobacco flavouring is a much extended subject if we consider how wide this industry is ranging from smoke to smokeless products and all the different types in-between. Following World Tobacco suggestion, we agreed to concentrate the information on the cigarette industry. We do not pretend to make an exhaustive revision of the subject but rather a quick overview of actual procedures and some new concepts. Some of the information applies to other smoke products and the sensation approach we suggest applies to the whole tobacco industry. Cigarette flavouring has been present in the industry for a long time and yet, the basic methodologies currently widely used have changed very little in the last few decades.
