World War 1 didn't just reshape Europe - it killed cigar culture and created the cigarette empire that would dominate the next century.
When soldiers couldn't smoke cigars in trenches (too long, too wet, visible to snipers), cigarette companies seized the opportunity. By 1918, cigarettes outsold cigars for the first time in history.
Then came Prohibition. While alcohol was illegal, cigar shops became the perfect fronts for speakeasies. Al Capone ran his entire Chicago operation through tobacco stores.
Meanwhile, Winston Churchill refused to give up his 10-daily cigars, even having a special oxygen mask built with a cigar hole for high-altitude flights during WWII.
This is the story of how we traded patience for convenience, and what we lost in the process.
