The tobacco leaf-processed material preferably comprises (1) a waste tobacco generated from production processes of the tobacco or (2) a recovered tobacco comprising a leaf part which is recovered from a discarded cigarette stub. The tobacco leaf-processed material may comprise (4) a tobacco component-containing granular material or (5) a tobacco component-containing pasty material the both of which are obtained by adding (3) a solidifying material capable of solidifying the tobacco component to the waste tobacco (1) and/or the recovered tobacco (2).
