Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2019211324A1] A consumable for a smoking substitute device contains a liquid aerosol-forming substrate, wherein the substrate comprises solid tobacco-derived material and a solution of nicotine which has been released from the tobacco-derived material. The substrate can be a suspension of solids in a solution of nicotine obtained from nicotine-free liquids. The solids may be obtained from tobacco plant having an inherently high content of nicotine of at least 4% by weight. The nicotine-containing solution may comprise propylene glycol and glycerine in a ratio within the range of 10:90 to 90:10. The solution may be obtained by extracting nicotine from the solid under conditions of elevated temperature and / or agitation. The tobacco-derived material may have a maximum dimension in a range of 20μm to 2000μm. Tobacco-derived solid may be visible in the substrate to identify the nicotine in the solution as being derived from tobacco.
