If you love beer, Oktoberfest is a bucket list item that must be crossed off in a lifetime. Millions of beer enthusiasts and adventurers from around the globe make the yearly pilgrimage to Munich to celebrate beer and Bavarian culture. It’s an occasion quite unlike anything else on the planet. This year, the festival will take place for the 190th time, from September 20 to October 5. For aficionados making the journey, consider packing smokes specifically meant to be paired with the beers you’ll be drinking—Quesada Oktoberfest cigars. And the good news? The seasonal line of smokes are heading to retailers now.

Quesada Oktoberfest 2025 is made at the Quesada factory in the Dominican Republic, and has been blended to pair with German beer ever since the brand’s debut in 2011. The blend of the seasonal cigars has varied since the very first renditions, but the 2025 release will feature a dark, Mexican San Andrés wrapper combined with Dominican binders and fillers, which mirrors blends seen in recent years.

This year’s line features five sizes, including the addition of a figurado that was once reserved solely for events. “For our Oktoberfest fans we are bringing back the Salomon Box Press as part of the regular line,” says national sales manager Hector Becerra. As with each annual release, one of the core differences in this year’s line lies in the box and band presentation, which varies each year.

The dimensions and prices of the five sizes are as follows: Bavarian, measuring 5 1/2 inches by 52 ring gauge ($12.08); the box-pressed Kaiser Ludwig, 6 by 49 ($10.50); Das Boot, a 6-by-52 torpedo ($12.08); the Uber, 6 by 65 ($12.60); and the Salomon Box Press ($12.60), which has a length of 6 3/4 inches and a double-tapered body that has a 50-ring gauge at its widest point. 

All sizes will be available in 10 count boxes, and the run is limited to 500 boxes of each size.
