ABSTRACT:
A method of making cigarettes in which a continuous strip of air-impervious material is formed into a tube which is then nipped at spaced intervals to form a string of chubs. This string of chubs is then introduced into the chimney of a conventional high speed cigarette making machine wherein a continuous cigarette rod of tobacco will be formed about the hollow chubs. The continuous rod is then severed at the nips between adjoining chubs. Thereafter as desired the sections are joined to filters with the filter tip sections being cut into individual cigarettes having the closed end of a chub adjacent each filter.
