    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for releasing flavor components from a flavor-generating medium using an electric heating element are provided. A non-combustion flavor-generating article (10) uses electrical energy to power a heating element (14) which heats tobacco or other flavorants (12) in a flavor generating medium. The flavor-generating medium is formed into a packed bed. Energy delivered to the heating element is regulated to maintain the flavor- generating medium at a relatively constant operating temperature to ensure a relatively constant release of flavor and to ensure that release of flavor components is due to heating, rather than burning of the flavor generating medium.
