ABSTRACT In a method of making lengths of smoking-material rod, particularly cigarette lengths, smoking material and wrapper-web material are each continuously fed to a rod maker operable to wrap and seam-seal said wrapper mater- ial about said smoking material to provide smoking mater- ial rod which is fed to a cutter for cutting said rod into lengths and smoke-modifying agent is so applied intermittently to one of the said materials during their feeding to the rod maker that, in each of the said lengths, the smoke-modifying agent is distributed over one end zone which is accounted for by a few puffs, generally a first few puffs only, in the smoking of the length. Preferably tobacco material and wrapper-web material are each fed to a rod maker operable to wrap and seam-seal said web material about said tobacco mat- erial to form cigarette rod which is cut into cigarette lengths and smoke-modifying agent is so applied inter- mittently to one of the said materials during their feeding to the rod maker that, in each of the said lengths, the smoke-modifying agent is distributed over not less than 25% of each said length. Further smoke modifying agent may be distributed outside the said zone.
