The combination of exclusive cigars, international partners, a musical supporting programme and culinary delights has already made the festival a highlight of the 2026 cigar year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, the organisation of the event proved that the generational change at Zigarren Herzog was a seamless success. The well-coordinated team once again demonstrated its experience, its network and its ability to realise a multi-day festival of this size at the highest level.
