Heinemann Duty Free and Oettinger Davidoff AG celebrated the opening of the Davidoffwalk-in humidor in the Heinemann Duty Free Shop at Frankfurt Airport, Terminal 1, Area Z. The 15 sq m walk-in humidor reflects Davidoff’s new global retail concept “Davidoff of Geneva – since 1911”. Its premium interior design, with fine timbers and natural materials in earthy tones that are reminiscent of the colour of the cigars, creates a contemporary, warm environment imbued with copper tones and an extremely elegant atmosphere.
In addition to a huge selection from the entire range of Davidoff products, aficionados will find cigars from the well-known brands Camacho, Griffin’s and Zino. The new walk-in humidor will preserve the quality of the cigars whilst ensuring they are stored under the optimal humidity and temperature conditions. Customers will also be able to purchase specialties and exotic products from different origins as for example from Cuba. In addition, Davidoff Cigars has created an exclusive Heinemann Travel Retail Limited Cigar Edition that will be available to purchase in the new humidor. Furthermore, visitors will be given the opportunity to win a premium Davidoff humidor in a contest running throughout December 2015.In line with this, customers will have the chance to meet a Dominican Republic master cigar roller who will be demonstrating his craft until Christmas in Terminal 2.
“I’m very proud of our new walk-in humidor and the work that our teams have done to make this space an exclusive shopping destination. The contemporary décor retells the Davidoff legacy and creates a beautiful environment where cigar aficionados flying from Frankfurt Airport can find exceptionally hand-crafted cigars, including the Heinemann Travel Retail Limited Edition, created to celebrate our new home at Frankfurt Airport,” said Hans-Kristian Hoejsgaard, CEO of Oettinger Davidoff AG.
Claus Heinemann, Owner of Gebr. Heinemann, said: “The Davidoff and the Heinemann families share a successful, 40-plus-year business partnership. The opening of the walk-in humidor at Frankfurt Airport is once again proof of both companies’ claims to outstanding quality and premium presentation of the products.
Rüdiger Stelkens, Director Purchase Liquor, Tobacco & Confectionery of Gebr. Heinemann, adds: “We work with our partners to create intriguing brand experiences which surprise travelers. The new walk-in humidor is a great example of this. We are delighted to have Oettinger Davidoff at our side in this exciting project. Passengers will be enthralled by the products on offer.
The celebration showcased how both companies truly value outstanding quality and excellence in product presentation. Connoisseurs of fine cigars from around the globe who attended the exclusive get-together on the occasion of the humidor opening were given the opportunity to chat with colleagues and discover the great cigar assortment on offer.
