Overview

Think Cocoa first, then Earth and Black Pepper. That is the quickest way into Layer X Origin. Both sides of the Layer X Origin collaboration are visible, but the cigar still stands on its own once the band comes off.

The Story

The story behind Layer X Origin.

Layer X came to us at SHOT Show with the idea of building something together, and months of blend work turned that conversation into a dense, complex Toro we were proud to put our names on. Layer X Origin became our way of putting that experience into a box.

Construction

Inside the 6x52 Toro, Mexican wrapper, Mexican binder, and Nicaraguan & Peruvian filler establish the cigar's core structure. Layer X Origin keeps the wrapper, core, and flavor progression in proportion through its dimensions.
