Cigars and Cigarillos Market

Market Overview:

The global cigars and cigarillos market is expected to exhibit a growth rate (CAGR) of 3.1% during 2023-2028.

A cigar is a large roll of tobacco wrapped in a tobacco leaf, whereas a cigarillo is a more extended, slimmer version of a cigar. Tobacco leaves are fermented, dried, and then tightly rolled in varying lengths, sizes, and thicknesses. Based on the high nicotine content, cigars and cigarillos have gained prominence, particularly among the high-dose nicotine consumers.

The elevating consumer living standards supported by their rising income levels are augmenting the demand for premium tobacco products, such as cigars and cigarillos. Furthermore, the wide product availability across several brick-and-mortar distribution channels along with decreasing product tax rates are also propelling the market for cigars and cigarillos. Additionally, the growing demand for high-nicotine products have led to a rising shift from cigarettes, snugs, sheesha, etc., towards cigars and cigarillos. Moreover, the expanding hospitality sector is catalyzing the introduction of cigar lounges in various luxury hotels and bars. Apart from this, with a rise in the number of female smokers, several product manufacturers are launching innovative flavors, such as wine, tea, candy, vanilla, etc., for cigars and cigarillos. In the coming years, the emergence of e-commerce platforms will continue to drive the sales of cigars and cigarillos by providing diverse product ranges, faster delivery options, secured payment gateways, etc.
