Herbal cigarette

Abstract

Pre-determined and definite amounts of different Herbal ingredients, which are the different plant parts of Herbs, including roots, stem, leaves, seeds, flowers, fruits, that are in the form of powder, granules, leaves and seeds are mixed thoroughly together. Clarified butter and/or essential oil(s) depending on the flavor, in liquid form are added in small pre-determined amount to the mixture that is mixed again. Using automatic machines this mixture, which is dry and combustible, with ‘enough’ moisture, is filled inside the cigarette paper tubes to which filter tip is attached. Individual cigarettes are packed together in boxes to be sold in the market. Alternatively, these cigarette papers or filter tubes could be hand-filled with the Herbal mixture that can be stored in pouches.
