Overview
Cedar, Leather, and Red Pepper give Red Label Lykos its center of gravity, while the 5 x 50 Robusto keeps the progression measured. That combination keeps Red Label Lykos approachable without making it anonymous.
The Story
The story behind Red Label Lykos.
Red Label Lykos is the brighter, sharper face of the original pair, with Corojo leading a La Isla blend we tuned for cedar, leather, and a clean red-pepper edge. Red Label Lykos reflects the process: patient where it needed patience and direct everywhere else.
