It's probably quite fair to say the cigar boom was at least partially caused by the increased awareness of diseases related to cigarette smoking. Should this be mentioned?

  • I haven't seen this mentioned in a single source anywhere. Lew Rothman attributes the boom to an aging population and the emergence of Cigar Aficionado... Carrite (talk) 21:13, 15 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Pop Culture Impact on cigar sales edit

Popular movie culture played a big role in the perception and increased consumer interest in cigars. Movies such as Risky Business, Predator, The Grifters, Scarface, Cape Fear, and Wall Street, just to name a few. Iconic celebrities like Clint Eastwood, George Burns, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Jordan, Andy Garcia, Al Pacino, Robert Deniro, etc have all played an unwitting role in how cigar smoking is viewed. 2600:1700:2CD0:2EA0:F50C:78F3:EB3E:14F9 (talk) 16:52, 21 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
