Starting in 2011, the Quesada family began to release a seasonal cigar blend that was intended to be paired with German Märzenbier, the beer that has for centuries been brewed for Oktoberfest. Issued in extremely small quantities, Quesada Oktoberfest is made by hand in the Dominican Republic and ages with the very best of them. And while the rich blend of select tobaccos that make this smoke have varied in the past, one thing has remained constant over the years: Quesada's ability to make you crave a stein of cold beer. 

For the 2023 release, the blend consisted of a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, a Dominican binder and all Dominican filler leaf. Which when aged, produce a doughy, rye-like breadiness and a distinct salinity that makes one think of traditional German soft pretzels.
