摘要

1. A system for making one's own cigarettes, more particularly filter cigarettes, comprising : (a) a prefabricated cigarette paper tube (11), and (b) a portion of tobacco sufficient for the filling of a finished cigarette and insertable into the cigarette paper tube (11), the surface of the tobacco portion being so permeable to air that it cannot be smoked by itself characterised in that (c) the tobacco portion is held together by a binder which joins the tobacco fibres together and is itself smokable, to form a dimensionally stable tobacco rod (10) which in cross-section and length matches the tobacco-holding compartment (16) in the cigarette paper tube (11), so that (d) the tobacco rod retains its preset shape and tightly fits against the inner surface of the cigarette paper tube (11) when inserted into it to make the finished cigarette.
