Zusammenfassung:The invention provides a process for improving the taste and aroma of tobacco by finely dispersing over it an emulsion comprising an emulsifier, an aqueous phase and an oil phase containing at least 10% by weight of a non-volatile oil. The non-volatile oil comprises hydrocarbons, fatty acids, fatty acid esters, fatty alcohols and vegetable waxes, all having between 10 and 40 carbon atoms. The emulsifier is preferably water-soluble or water-dispersible. The emulsions may be used as vehicles for applying other water-soluble and/or oil-soluble additives such as flavours, casing, humectants etc.
