Lisäbrändi

Lisäbrändi is a term used in the context of Finnish language and culture. In essence, it refers to cigarette paper that is inserted between the cigarette and the cigarette holder or pipe to prevent pagoda lip. Pagoda lip is the formation of a bulge or overhang at the top of the cigarette paper due to the moisture and heat generated during smoking.

The use of lisäbrändi is a common practice in Finland and other parts of Northern Europe where cigarette smoking is prevalent. The insertion of a small piece of paper between the cigarette and the holder helps to prevent the formation of the pagoda lip, thereby enabling the smoker to enjoy their cigarette more comfortably and evenly.

From a technical perspective, lisäbrändi serves as a separator or spacer between the cigarette and the holder. By keeping the materials separate, it reduces the risk of the cigarette paper becoming saturated with moisture and heat, which can lead to the formation of the unwanted bulge or overhang. The use of lisäbrändi has also been observed to lower the risk of smoking-related problems such as tongue burns and mouth sores.

The term "lisäbrändi" itself is Finnish, with "lisä" meaning "addition" or "extra" and "brändi" meaning "paper strip" or " sticker". Overall, lisäbrändi is a simple yet effective solution to prevent smoking-related issues and enhance the overall smoking experience for individuals who use a cigarette holder or pipe.
