ABSTRACT:
Smokable and/or combustible tobacco material is provided by altering the character of tobacco material.
Tobacco material is extracted using a solvent to provide a tobacco extract within the solvent and an extracted tobacco material. The extracted tobacco material is separated from at least a portion of the extract and solvent. The extracted tobacco material is subjected to pyrolysis conditions to provide a pyrolyzed material. The pyrolysis conditions can include a temperature of from about 300.degree. C. to about 1250.degree. C. and a non-oxidizing atmosphere.
The pyrolyzed material can then be formed into a predetermined shape such as by extrusion, casting and the like.
