A regenerated tobacco material is manufactured through extracting a
natural tobacco material with an extracting solvent to obtain an
extracted solution containing components of the natural tobacco material
and an extraction residue. A regenerated tobacco web is prepared by using
the extraction residue. On the other hand, the extracted solution is
subjected to a fractionating treatment by means of ultrafiltration,
reverse osmosis filtration, or reversed-phase partition chromatography to
obtain a first fraction enriched in desired components and depleted in
undesired components, and a second fraction enriched in the undesired
components and depleted in the desired components. The first fraction is
added, optionally together with the second fraction decreased in amount,
to the regenerated tobacco web to prepare a regenerated tobacco material.
