• tobacco flavor material for generating a flavored tobacco response in the cavity, the tobacco flavor material being disposed on the first surface of the carrier;
• a lighter, the lighter including
• a heater fixture for receiving, through a first end, the removable cigarette, and
• a plurality of electrical heater elements disposed in the heater fixture, each of the heater elements having a surface for being disposed adjacent the second surface of the cigarette, the heater elements heating the tobacco flavor material to generate a flavored tobacco response in the cavity;
• and
• means for individually activating the plurality of heater elements such that a predetermined quantity of flavored tobacco response is generated in the cavity,
• wherein the carrier and the tobacco flavor material allow a transverse flow of air into the cavity.
