I dont fall into any of your categories, I know what I like and smoke about 80% Cubans. But I like to try most of the new things my local B&M gets in. Both to support their business and so I have an idea what is going on in the market.
Typically the cigar industry goes to the money. Today that is the casual, weekend smoker. That's why brands like Macanudo and Rocky Patel are such big sellers.
$10 and up is the super premium market and is a very small percentage of the actual market, but probably a large percent of the members here. Most of the casual smokers have never heard of Illusione, Tatuaje or Pepin.
