Although cigarillos recorded dynamic volume growth from 2016 to 2020, the boost to sales ended in 2021, with the category starting to shrink. The rapid growth of cigarillos was supported by the preferential tax rate given to cigarillos compared with cigarettes, because cigarillos were taxed by weight due to their classification as cigars. Because cigarillos are light, they had a preferential tax rate compared with cigarettes, which are taxed by the number of sticks.
