ABSTRACT:
A process for refining tobacco for cigarette use so that the end product is free of resin and tar and virtually free of nicotine, which affords economics in the processing procedure. The tobacco is initially steeped in a hot solution of Potassium Metabisulfite (K.sub.2 S.sub.2 O.sub.5) or Potassium Sulphate (K.sub.2 SO.sub.4) and then boiled in a solution of Potassium Sulfate and Potassium Nitrate. The tobacco is then air dried and sprayed with flavoring material.
