FIELD: tobacco industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a technology for production of non-smoking nicotine-containing products like water naswar. The method envisages preparation of recipe components, extraction of Chinese magnolia vine with liquid carbon dioxide to separate corresponding miscella; one performs cutting rustic tobacco and soapwort roots. After cutting rustic tobacco and soapwort roots are dried in microwave oven till residual humidity about 20% at microwave field power providing warming of raw material inside the bits till temperature of 80-90°C during at least an hour. Then rustic tobacco and soapwort roots are mixed, impregnated with separated miscella with extract content equal to 0.03% of the mixture weight with simultaneous pressure boost. One performs depressurisation to atmospheric value with simultaneous freezing of the mixture, subliming and removal of carbon dioxide with simultaneous swelling of the mixture. One adds apple juice concentrate sugar syrup, calcium and/or magnesium citrate and water to the mixture and moulds it. The mixture is prepared at their following weight ratio of the components with accuracy of ±2%: rustic tobacco - 400; soapwort roots - 300; apple juice concentrate in conversion to 70% of dry substances content - 90; sugar syrup in conversion to 70% concentration - 90; calcium and/or magnesium citrate - 70, water up to 1000.

EFFECT: method allows to produce a non-smoking nicotine-containing rustic tobacco product with improved organoleptic properties and extended storage life combined with decreasing losses of flavouring substances and initial raw material nicotine.
