CIGARETTE FILTER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A filter for a cigarette includes a porous filter rod circumscribed by a substantially non-porous or air impermeable wrapper with selected air permeable areas, and ventilating air grooves embedded in the wrapped filter rod which extend from one end of the filter rod a preselected distance generally longitudinally of the filter rod. Tipping material circumscribes the wrapped filter rod and is formed with perforations therethrough providing a path for ventilating air flow into the grooves and into the body of the filter rod at the selected air permeable areas outside of the grooves. The walls of each of the grooves are formed with preselected perforations therethrough to provide for the flow of air from the grooves into the body of the filter rod. Under certain smoking conditions most, of not all, of the ventilating air in the grooves will flow from the grooves into the smoker's mouth through the open end of the grooves at the mouth end of the filter rod. Under certain other smoking conditions, at least a part of the ventilating air flowing in the grooves will pass through the apertures of the groove walls and Into the body of the filter rod and air will pass through the air impermeable wrapper into the body of the filter rod outside the grooves. the air flowing into the filter body co-mingles with and dilutes the smoke flowing through the filter.
