This disclosure relates to a smoking product derived from coffee bean hulls. Smoking compositions are described which contain coffee bean components alone or mixed with tobacco or non-tobacco substances. The hulls, which contain pectinaceous substances, are treated with reagents that attack the alkaline earth metal cross-links causing the release of the coffee pectins. The latter acts as a binding agent and together with the treated hulls may be handled or used similarly to a tobacco product. |
