About Dutch Masters
Dutch Masters is a mass market cigar brand Imperial sells in the USA. Imperial's FY2025 annual report attributes overall mass market cigar performance gains that year to product innovation and brand loyalty, while noting that Backwoods' growth offset weakness in the Dutch range specifically, which faced pressure from low-price competitors. As with Backwoods, this is part of Imperial's mass market cigar business, distinct from the premium cigar business (Cuban and US brands) it sold in 2020.
