An aerosol generating material is disclosed containing a reconstituted cocoa bean husk material. The reconstituted material can contain extracted cocoa husk fibers in combination with web building fibers, such as softwood fibers. The reconstituted cocoa husk material is capable of generating an aerosol, such as a smoke, that has a very mild and neutral taste without any harsh components. The reconstituted cocoa husk material contains no nicotine and produces lower tar than conventional tobacco materials. The material can be used as a carrier for delivering various active agents in an aerosol generated by the material in a controlled, consistent and uniform manner.
