Abstract

A smoking or non-smoking material comprises a volatile-releasing substrate bearing a flavor enhancing proportion of distiller's dried solubles. The composition is useful to pleasurably stimulate a taste sensation. In one use, the composition of the invention is disposed in a cigarette like form to simulate a cigarette and used in a similar manner to give the "smoker" pleasure and oral gratification. In other words, the substrate is smokable.
