Answer

Why do cigarette sales in the Balearic Islands matter for Mallorca specifically?

Mallorca is the largest and most visible part of the Balearic Islands, so smoking trends there often shape the wider conversation. Sales figures can show whether traditional cigarette use is falling, but they do not capture how much nicotine is moving into vapes or heated tobacco. For Mallorca, the useful question is not only how many cigarettes are sold, but how nicotine use is changing overall.
