There will be a separate blog post about this tasting (you can find the link below). Is there any flavour left in such an old cigar? Spoiler alert: Marie Gerber (Manager Bar &amp; Lounges The Chedi Andermatt) and I were completely flabbergasted. Find out why in this programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Champagne enjoyment with a cigar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We enjoyed two different classes of champagne. Mine costs around CHF 50 and Marie Gerber's costs around CHF 300. Experience the history behind the champagne and how the cigar tasted with the champagne.<\/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=\"722\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing2-722x1000.jpg\" alt=\"Champagne pairing with Le Hoyo de San Juan\" class=\"wp-image-46871\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing2-722x1000.jpg 722w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing2-217x300.jpg 217w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing2-768x1064.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing2-624x864.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing2.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 722px) 100vw, 722px\" \/><figcaption>Marie Gerber enjoyed the KRUG Grande Cuv\u00e9e Brut with a 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 drinks while chatting<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Champagne Veuve Clicquot Brut<\/li><li>Champagne KRUG Grand Cuv\u00e9e Brut<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Cigars ZEN?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a format from Zigarren.Zone Social Network. 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=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing.jpg\" alt=\"Champagne pairing with Le Hoyo de San Juan\" class=\"wp-image-46869\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Hoyo-de-San-Juan-Champagner-Pairing-624x468.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>Vasilij enjoyed Veuve Clicquot Brut with his cigar.<\/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><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><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/la-corona-jahrhundert-tasting-chedi-andermatt\/\">Part 4: The century of tasting: La Corona, a 136-year-old Cuban cigar<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cigars ZEN programmes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Exciting, funny and interesting ZOOM programmes.
