ABSTRACT:
A variable dilution cigarette is provided having two-layer laminated tipping. Dilution patterns and break lines are formed in the layers before they are laminated. The laminate is applied to a segmented filter such that the dilution pattern of one layer moves relative to that of the other, changing their degree of registry and varying the dilution value of the cigarette, as the filter segments are rotated relative to one another. Because the two dilution patterns can be formed separately, non-linear dilution variation is possible, as well as more nearly constant resistance-to-draw. A method of manufacturing the cigarette is also provided.
