Abstract: To improve the aging quality of Fujian‘Cuibi No.1’tobacco lamina, in this test, using by Fujian‘Cuibi No.1’tobacco lamina, the aging quality which stored in the air-conditioned storage warehouse and in the ordinary warehouse was comparatively analyzed. The results of the test showed that in appearance quality, the color and glossiness of the tobacco lamina aged in the air-conditioned storage warehouse were better kept. While the color of the tobacco lamina aged in the ordinary warehouse for 24 months became much darker. In chemical composition, the sugar in the upper tobacco lamina aged in the ordinary warehouse for 24 months was greatly reduced, compared with that in those aged in the air-conditioned storage warehouse. In sensory quality, the tobacco lamina that had been aged in the air-conditioned storage warehouse for 21 to 24 months had an obvious advantage than those aged in the ordinary warehouse. In conclusion, aging the tobacco lamina with higher grade or those that will be stored for a longer time in the air-conditioned storage warehouse and aging those with lower grade or those will be stored for a shorter time in the ordinary warehouse can enhance the industrial value of tobacco lamina and reduce the energy consumption of them.
