Abstract
A mouthpiece for insertion into one end of a hand-rolled cigarette comprises a cylindrical body approximately 12 mm in length and 6.5 mm in diameter made from a resilient foam or plastic material with one or more channels extending axially through the mouthpiece from one end to the other. The mouthpiece can be compressed between finger and thumb and inserted into the end of the cigarette which is to be placed in the mouth. When the compressive forces are released, the mouthpiece expands to its original diameter and grips the inner walls of the cigarette tube. The mouthpiece provides more stability to the end of the cigarette and it does not filter the smoke.
