This programme was recorded from The Chedi Andermatt. You have to see the pairing with cigar. Marie Gerber (Manager Bar &amp; Lounges The Chedi Andermatt) and I talk about the pairing with the cigar and the cigar service of the feel-good luxury hotel. Spoiler alert: The cigar lounge can be visited by anyone, even if they are not a guest. And: The cigars have normal retail prices, except for rarities of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The video: Cocktail pairing with Gilbert de Montsalvat<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best way to enjoy the video is with a great cigar and a nice drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-videopress\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"VideoPress Video Player\" aria-label='VideoPress Video Player' width='640' height='360' src='https:\/\/videopress.com\/embed\/z4Cjao4a?preloadContent=metadata&amp;hd=0&amp;cover=1' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen data-resize-to-parent=\"true\" allow='clipboard-write'><\/iframe><script src='https:\/\/v0.wordpress.com\/js\/next\/videopress-iframe.js?m=1674852142'><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-vivid-red-background-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-paragraph\">Note: You can also watch the video in HD on YouTube: <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/TJrgk-SOMAU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CLICK here &gt;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gilbert's Best Friend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This cocktail is called \u201eGilbert's Best Friend\u201c. It consists of 4 ingredients. You can find out how to mix this fantastic cocktail yourself below. The cigar is from the \u201e10 Anniversary\u201c line and is a Gran Robusto. I mixed the cocktail shortly before the programme. You can find out how I managed it and how the cigar and the cocktail go together in the following programme. I wish you lots of fun and enjoyment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-2.jpg\" alt=\"Grandiose Gilbert de Montsalvat with cocktail pairing\" class=\"wp-image-46829\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-2-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-2-624x351.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Marie Gerber explains the interplay between the cocktail ingredients and the Gilbert de Montsalvat cigar.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>We enjoyed the following cocktail while chatting<\/strong>: <strong>GILBERT'S BEST FRIEND<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>2cl Pisco<\/li><li>2cl Jsotta Rose Vermouth<\/li><li>1cl quince liqueur&nbsp;<\/li><li>1cl sherry&nbsp;<\/li><li>Put all the ingredients in a small glass with ice and stir until you have the perfect balance.

What does ZEN mean in the context of this format? It is often said that ZEN offers nothing. Neither a teaching, nor a secret, nor answers. It means living life to the fullest. You can find an article about this at <a href=\"https:\/\/de.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Zen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikipedia<\/a>. So this is about celebrating the pleasure of a cigar, a drink and a conversation. Simply switching off and taking time for yourself. Simply being and slowing down without pursuing a specific goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-1.jpg\" alt=\"Grandiose Gilbert de Montsalvat with cocktail pairing\" class=\"wp-image-46828\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-1-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-1-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-1-624x349.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Marie Gerber, Manager Bar &amp; Lounges The Chedi Andermatt.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"448\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-3.jpg\" alt=\"Grandiose Gilbert de Montsalvat with cocktail pairing\" class=\"wp-image-46830\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-3-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-3-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Marie-Gerber-Chedi-Andermatt-ZEN-GILBERT-3-624x349.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Stimulating conversation between Marie Gerber and Vasilij Ratej.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Chedi Andermatt and its crazy cigar business - the 2021 series<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Blog posts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/das-zigarren-business-im-the-chedi-andermatt\/\">Part 1: Mach geil and the fantastic cigar business at The Chedi Andermatt<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/la-flor-de-selva-the-chedi-andermatt-pairing\/\">Part 2: La Flor De Selva with 2 cocktail pairings<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/pairing-san-cristobal-de-la-habana-whisky-japan\/\">Part 3: San Cristobal La Punta with Japanese whisky pairing<\/a><\/li><li>Part 4: to be published on 03 November 2021: The Century Tasting: La Corona, approx. 136-year-old Cuban cigar<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Cigars ZEN programmes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exciting, funny and interesting ZOOM programmes.
