Cigarette:

The basic components of most cigarettes are tobacco, a filter, and paper wrapping. Cigarettes can have various lengths (e.g., King, 100, or 120) and diameters (e.g., slim or ultra slim) as pictured.

Pictured from left to right: King, (this is the standard length of most conventional cigarettes), 100 (normal diameter and ultra slim diameter), and 120 (slim diameter).

Bidis, Cloves, Herbal Cigarettes with Tobacco:

Clove cigarettes, also referred to as kreteks, are imported from Indonesia and typically contain a mixture of tobacco, cloves, and other additives. Bidis are small, thin hand-rolled cigarettes imported to the U.S., primarily from India and other Southeast Asian countries. Bidis are comprised of tobacco wrapped in a tendu or temburni leaf (plants native to Asia) and are tied with a string.

Electronic cigarette or vaping product(also known as E-cigarette, vape pen, hookah pen, mod, e-cigar, e-hookah, and e-pipe):

Heated Tobacco Product (also known as "Heat not Burn"):

Heated tobacco products heat a specially prepared form of tobacco to create an aerosol that is inhaled by the user.

Gutka (or Gutkha), Betel Quid with Tobacco

Gutkha is a dry, commercial preparation containing areca nut, slaked lime, tobacco and often other condiments (such as catechu, sweeteners, or spices). The same mixture with betel leaf is called betel quid with tobacco. Some variants without tobacco are pan masala and betel quid. Typicaly, gutka and betel quid with tobacco are not chewed, but are held in the mouth between the gum and cheek. Saliva is generally spit out, but sometimes swallowed.

Mixture of tobacco with spices, herbs, nuts, fruit, plant leaves, etc. (used for chewing):

Qiwam (Kiwa) is a thick tobacco paste; it is also available as granules or pellets. To prepare qiwam, the midribs and veins of tobacco leaves are removed, and the remaining matter is boiled in water. Powdered spices (saffron, cardamom, aniseed and musk) are added, and the mixture is stirred and allowed to soak and soften until it becomes a paste, from which granules and pellets are made. The paste is placed in the mouth and chewed. It is used in India, Bangladesh, and Nepal.

Zarda is prepared by cutting tobacco leaves into small pieces and boiling them in water with slaked lime and spices until the water evaporates. It is then dried, and coloring and flavoring agents are added. Zarda may be chewed by itself, with areca nut or in betel quid. It is available in small packets or tins.

Dissolvables:

Use of most smokeless tobacco products involves spitting or discarding the product remains. Dissolvable tobacco products, such as orbs, pellets, sticks or strips are not smoked, chewed or spit out.
