Swisher Sweets are flavored cigars manufactured by Swisher International, Inc. in Jacksonville, Florida.
A cigar company was given to David Swisher in 1856. Swisher Sweets were introduced in 1958.
Although Swisher Sweets are a tobacco product, it is estimated that as many as three-fourths of all Swisher Sweets bought are not used as intended. Instead, many people buy them as "blunts", or a receptacle for cannabis. Emptying a Swisher Sweet or other cigar and refilling it with one's own marijuana is known as rolling a "blunt". The explosion of the cannabis industry in the United States since the mid-2000s has more than likely contributed to Swisher Sweets being the top-selling cigar in America.
