Cigars in Egypt

From mid-2010, higher taxes were levied on cigars in Egypt, with this resulting in a marked increase in unit price. However, this increase did not dramatically affect growth in volume sales as cigars are purchased mainly by affluent consumers. Sales are almost exclusively limited to high-income men, who are thus fairly unconcerned about unit price rises.
