Cigars in Ecuador

In Ecuador, cigars are usually smoked by middle-high and high-income men of 40 years and above. The product is considered a niche, a premium product that is not made for a mass demand, as people who consume it have a vast knowledge of the different variants. It is considered a luxury. However, in the province of Loja, in the city of Vilcabamba, smoking and producing handmade cigarillos that the people call chamicos has long been a strong tradition.
