Habana Mike Posted September 26, 2013 Posted September 26, 2013 I have decided as part of my interest and vocation in data anlytics to do an informal survey on the most popular cigars preferred by country or region, not based on HSA sales or other figures, but rather on preferences of seasoned smokers that participate on cigar forums. I expect the results to differ significantly from those generally reported as I doubt the most favored cigar in any population sample will be the Monte #4, which has been consistently specified as the most popular cigar in the world for some time. All I am asking is that you post your home country and top 3 favorite marcas/vitolas so I may collect the data for aggregation and analysis. This survey is being performed across a number of sites I frequent so I ask that you only respond once on the first forum you encounter this request. If you have any suggestions regarding other forums not mentioned in other posts you think I might use to contribute to the study, please include those - or PM me if you'd rather. I'd like to get as large a cross-section as possible. I appreciate your participation.
nikesupremedunk Posted September 26, 2013 Posted September 26, 2013 Interesting survey and best of luck with your project! It's very hard for me to even narrow it down to 3 favorites, because my favorite is whatever I'm in the mood for at that time. But I'll try my best.

This will i guess figure out what the cigar enthusiasts on forums like to smoke, which will be good information for Rob and other retailers really, and in the end for us. Good stuff, I look forward to seeing what results you come up with !
Blakes Posted September 26, 2013 Posted September 26, 2013 One question. Are we putting down our favourite 3 smokes or our 3 most smoked cigars? There not necessarily the same.

I did ask favorites which does not imply most frequently smoked though I imagine a majority of us smoke our favorites most frequently.

As a matter of clarification, my request is for the marca/vitola e.g. Cohiba Robusto or FFOX Reserve de Chateau. Thanks for everyone's input so far! Mike
