ABSTRACT: The flavor of cigar smoke directly influences the consumer's willingness to purchase. However, the analysis of cigar smoke was lack. In this research, a total of 235 volatile compounds were identified by GC×GC-TOFMS in cigar smoke from Yuxi, Dehong and Pu'er regions of Yunnan, including 72 alkenes, 47 aromatic hydrocarbons, 42 heterocyclics, 28 ketones, 8 alcohols, 4 aldehydes, 3 esters, 13 phenols, 5 acetonitrile and 13 others. ROAV analysis indicated that o-cresol, guaiacol, 2,6-dimethyl-phenol, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxystyrene, (E,E)-2,4-hexadienal, butylbenzene, naphthalene, nicotine and D-limonene might be the key flavor compounds. By OPLS-DA, 2-methyl-pyridine, 2,4-dimethylfuran, 2-carene, 13-heptadecyn-1-ol, 1-ethyl-2-methyl-benzene, 2,3,5,8-tetramethyl-1,5,9-decatrien, 1-et
