Dannemann is a well-known name, especially in connection with cigarillos. But that's not the whole story.
Dannemann: Tradition and Quality
The roots trace back to Geraldo Dannemann. As a young man, he traveled from Bremen to Brazil. Even in the Hanseatic city, he had come into contact with cigars and decided to turn his passion into a profession. Whether it was the tobacco or the climate that drew him abroad remains a matter of speculation. In any case, he chose the Mata Fina region, known for its premium tobaccos.
Quality from a Single Source
He quickly built strong connections with local farmers and started growing his own tobacco. This principle of ensuring top quality through a closed production process is still followed by Dannemann today under the motto "from seed to smoke".
Thanks to his success, Geraldo Dannemann even became the mayor of his new hometown. The former immigrant was among the most influential figures in Bahia.
Dannemann Today
After his death in 1921, the company faced difficulties due to trade restrictions. It wasn't until after World War II that it was able to regain its footing.
Today, Dannemann is headquartered in Lübbecke. Although no longer family-owned, the company remains committed to its values. Transparency and responsibility towards nature and people in the growing regions remain a priority.
Dannemann Cigarillos: German Classics
The classic Dannemann Cigarillos are available in Sumatra and Brazil varieties. Those looking for affordable cigarillos will find great options in the 50-count boxes of the Schwering & Hasse series.
Treffurt Collection
The Treffurt Collection carries a piece of German-German history. Its retro design is reminiscent of DEFA films. The brands Diplomat, Gold, and Sprachlos originated in the GDR and were produced in Treffurt and Dingelstädt in Thuringia.
After reunification, they passed into private hands. Dannemann acquired the rights and the production site in Treffurt, preserving the East German identity of these cigarillos.
Dannemann Cigars – Traditional Quality
Dannemann's range includes not only cigarillos but also cigars. The Dannemann Cigars feature the Collofino, a Corona cigar perfect for relaxed enjoyment.
The highlight of the collection is the Cigarren 100% Tobacco, offering exquisite flavors.
