There is provided an aerosol-generating article (10) for producing an inhalable aerosol upon heating, the aerosol-generating article (10) comprising: a rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate comprising a gel composition, the gel composition comprising at least one gelling agent, at least one of an alkaloid compound and a cannabinoid compound and an aerosol former; an upstream element (46) upstream of the rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate and abutting the upstream end of the rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate; and a downstream section (14) arranged downstream of the rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate and in axial alignment with the rod (12) of aerosol-generating substrate, the downstream section (14) comprising one or more downstream elements. The resistance to draw (RTD) of the upstream element is between 5 millimetres H2O and 80 millimetres H2O. |
