Global Cigars and Cigarillos Market
The global cigars and cigarillos market was worth USD 19.3 billion in 2021 and is estimated to be worth USD 26.39 billion, growing at a CAGR of 4.32 percent from 2022 to 2027.The growing number of luxury hotels with cigar lounges is expected to drive significant growth in the global market.

The Dukes Hotel in London, for example, welcomes cigar and cognac enthusiasts in its cognac and cigar garden. The secluded courtyard behind the hotel serves a selection of cognacs to complement the Cuban cigars.
Market Drivers
To mask the harsh taste of tobacco, various flavours such as wine, tea, chocolate, and vanilla are being introduced, which is increasing demand among young consumers. Flavoured cigars are the most popular type of premium cigar. flavours such as sweetened tobacco products like Swisher Sweet and White Owl have led the market for generations, while flavoured products like Tatiana, Acid, and Java have contributed to an increase in demand for flavoured products in the last 15 years. In addition to this, companies operating in the tobacco product industry are conducting R&D activities in order to offer better tobacco quality and innovative flavours to compete in the market.
Market Restraints
The increasing concentration of cigar clubs in cities such as New Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Kolkata is expected to drive significant growth in demand for Cuban cigars in India. The growing brand awareness among the neo-rich, combined with the increased influence of western culture among young consumers, is attributed to the increased demand. However, a lack of adequate choice and limited marketing due to stringent government regulations on tobacco-related product advertising are expected to stymie growth in the near future.
Market Segmentation
The cigars and cigarillo market is segmented into product (mass, premium), flavour (tobacco, no flavour, flavoured), and region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East, and South Africa).
