Smoking compositions containing a menthol-release additive.

摘要

Smoking compositions contain a flavorant additive which releases menthol under normal cigarette smoking conditions. The menthol-release additive is either a mixture of menthyloxy-carbonylglucose compounds which include more than 35 mole percent of 1-O-menthyloxycarbonyl- beta -D-glucopyranose and more than 20 mole percent of 1,6-di-O-menthyloxycarbonyl- beta -D-glucopyranose, or a 6-O-menthyloxycarbonyl-D-glucose derivative.
