The starting signal will be given at 11:00 a.m. - and then it's off to the races.

What you need to know about the Eisenach cigar factory

Now it's time to tidy up! But the owner Thomas Geissler had to get past the guard dog first! 😁 Did he make it?

Official turbo & first deliveries

Beautiful location before clearing out.

What takes a long time sometimes suddenly becomes quick: after the tax office was asked with gentle but firm insistence to pull the bureaucratic lever, the tax number finally fluttered into the house. The Track & Trace number? Just a formality. Now nothing stood in the way of the start - Cigars have been ordered, the first ones have arrived. The humidor? Already well filled.

The shop is open. The till is running. The shelves are full. And the smell of a new beginning is in the air.

The start has been made - here we go!

The lounge area invites you to linger.

Of course, everything starts with a „soft opening“ - because a little familiarisation is always good. We know the principle from the catering trade: warm up first before the big rush arrives. And: there's a real highlight even before the official start!

On 27 June becomes Christopher Mey (Esteban Carreras Cigars, formerly Rocky Patel) together with Jens Buhne from Kopp Tobaccos will be visiting - from 10:00 to 14:00. Join in the smoking, join in the conversation, join in the celebrations: Welcome to the Cigar Combine!

Cutter, Coke, Character

What can you expect in the new shop?

Well, everything that makes a cigar lover's heart beat faster:
From Cutters, cigarillos and pipe tobacco, in addition Spirits, wine - and a very special cola.

Yes, you read that right. The landlord is Cola lovers and has come up with something special for the occasion: A Cola from Costa Rica, manufactured with real cane sugar, Fairly traded and with a clear commitment to Human rights and equality.

What could be better for ethical enjoyment of a cigar fit as a drink that embodies the same values?

Come by - in the centre of Eisenach

The Cigar combine is perfectly accessible:

Georgenstraße 19 C, approx. 150 metres from the market square
Only 100 metres from the car park at the market

It really couldn't be better.
