TOKYO -- The latest generation of heated cigarettes are providing an alternative for smokers looking to feed their habit without annoying people around them with the noxious odors and fumes associated with conventional smoking. They are also opening up a welcome new market for tobacco companies.
Heated cigarettes do not burn tobacco but heat heats it up by electric power. Users enjoy smoking by inhaling the vapor. They differ from the more common e-cigarettes, which use liquids that contain nicotine.
