Competitive Landscape
Davidoff Retains Lead as Tsuge Lao Targets Export Growth
Cigars and cigarillos remained moderately concentrated in 2025, with Davidoff & Cie, Genève maintaining its lead due to accessible pricing compared to other ultra-premium offerings. Davidoff's sustained position is reinforced by the presence of significantly higher-priced alternatives, such as Cuba Cohiba Siglo VI, Cuba Cohiba Medio Siglo and Cuba Cohiba Robustos, and Cuba Montecristo No.
