For ten years now, the <strong>Feria del Tabaco<\/strong> cigar lovers come together in Zurich. What once began as a small in-house exhibition is now a fixed date in the calendar of the Swiss cigar scene. Numerous importers present their exclusive cigars, accessories and new products. For two days, the city is transformed into <strong>MANUEL'S<\/strong> into a lively forum of enjoyment: talks, tastings, innovations and encounters - all centred around the cigar. An anniversary that is not only celebrated, but savoured.<\/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-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"667\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/hartl-feria_del_tabaco_25_manuels-dscf3269.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/hartl-feria_del_tabaco_25_manuels-dscf3269.jpg 667w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/hartl-feria_del_tabaco_25_manuels-dscf3269-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/hartl-feria_del_tabaco_25_manuels-dscf3269-624x936.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 667px) 100vw, 667px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-beschreibung-des-bildes\" style=\"font-size:1em\"><strong>Dirk Behrendt<\/strong> - friendly, open and with pleasant enthusiasm.<\/h4>\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\" id=\"eine-ganz-besondere-zigarre\">A very special cigar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201eThe 2012 is something very special,\u201c says Dirk and picks up one of the cigars. \u201eIt immediately stands out - both visually and in terms of flavour - and stands for very high quality.\u201c He speaks with palpable pride: \u201eI work in the field and haven't had a single complaint so far.
