Davidoff is one of the better-known international cigarette brands, and it’s consistently difficult to find in Canada. If that’s what brought you here, this covers why, what it costs where you can get it, and what we carry that comes closest.
We don’t stock Davidoff. We do carry Marlboro at $75 a carton, and native brands from $42 — so depending on what you’re after, there are options either way.
What Davidoff is
A Swiss premium cigarette brand, positioned at the upper end of the international market and sold widely across Europe and Asia. It’s known for a smooth, mild-to-medium character rather than a heavy one — a premium cigarette rather than a strong one.
Availability in Canada
Davidoff has never had broad distribution in Canada. Where you can find it, it’s through specialist tobacconists rather than convenience stores, and at premium pricing.
Canadian retail pricing makes any imported premium brand expensive. Federal excise duty runs roughly $38.92 per carton, and provincial tobacco tax adds $36.95 in Ontario or $65.00 in British Columbia on top.
If you want an international brand
We carry Marlboro Full Flavour and Marlboro Lights at $75 a carton — the same international product you’d find in retail, at below typical Canadian retail pricing.
That’s the closest thing to a like-for-like swap if brand matters more than price.
If you’re open to native brands
If what you liked about Davidoff was a smooth premium smoke rather than a strong one, these come closest in character at a much lower price:
| Brand | Character | Carton |
|---|---|---|
| Playfare’s Full Flavour | The most modern-tasting in the native range — cleaner, slightly sweeter, faster burn | $42.00 |
| Elite Full Flavour | Premium construction, denser leaf, stronger | $47.50 |
| Canadian Classics Original | Balanced full flavour, strength without weight | $42.00 |
Smokeway, who manufacture most native brands sold in Canada, describe Playfare’s as the brand that wins over people who found traditional native cigarettes too heavy. That’s the closest match in character to a premium international blend.
What we wouldn’t suggest: Rolled Gold. It’s considerably heavier than a Davidoff and would be a jarring switch.
The price difference
| Carton of 200 | |
|---|---|
| Premium international brand in Canadian retail | $130 – $160+ |
| Marlboro from MohawkSmoke | $75.00 |
| Native carton from MohawkSmoke | from $42.00 |
| At 40+ carton volume pricing | from $31.50 |
Health warning: Smoking is addictive and harmful to health. These products contain nicotine and are for adult smokers of legal smoking age only.
Frequently asked questions
Can you buy Davidoff cigarettes in Canada?
Availability is limited. Some specialist tobacconists stock them, but they’ve never had broad Canadian distribution and pricing reflects that.
How much are Davidoff cigarettes in Canada?
Where available, expect premium pricing — a carton of any imported premium brand sits at the top of the Canadian market, driven largely by tax.
What’s the closest alternative to Davidoff in Canada?
If brand matters most, we carry Marlboro at $75. If you want a smooth premium character at a lower price, Playfare’s Full Flavour is the nearest native equivalent at $42.
Do you sell any international brands?
Yes — Marlboro Full Flavour and Marlboro Lights at $75 a carton. The rest of our range is native brands manufactured at licensed First Nations facilities in Canada.
Why are imported cigarettes so expensive in Canada?
Tax. Federal excise duty plus provincial tobacco tax accounts for $75 to $104 per carton before anyone has paid for the product itself.
