An aerosol-generating article includes a rod of aerosol-generating substrate, a mouthpiece including a plug of filtration material, a wrapper, and a tobacco-containing layer including tobacco and an aerosol-forming agent, wherein the rod is wrapped by the wrapper and by the tobacco-containing layer, and the tobacco-containing layer is positioned in contact with a surface of the wrapper. A method for producing an aerosol-generating article includes preparing a tobacco-containing slurry, depositing the slurry onto a first sheet to form a sheet coated with a tobacco-containing layer, attaching a paper sheet to the first sheet to form a wrapper before or after depositing the slurry onto the first sheet so that the paper sheet and the tobacco-containing layer are on opposing sides of the first sheet, and subsequently wrapping a rod of aerosol-generating substrate with the wrapper including the first sheet, so that the tobacco-containing layer is facing the rod.
