the story of Carlos André with a vision.
On January 30, 1817, Johann Friedrich Christian André laid the foundation stone for today's company. More than 200 years later, Arnold André is Germany's largest cigar manufacturer and one of the most important in Europe, run by its 7th-generation owner Axel-Georg André.
Such a long-term market presence is impressive proof of a balanced attitude based on the core values of sound business conduct, a strong sense of social responsibility, and passion, enthusiasm and pioneering spirit.
Axel-Georg André continues this tradition of responsibility and appreciation from previous generations, and realizes his own vision of an exclusive, hand-crafted premium cigar as a tribute to the friends of the house. It was time for the birth of Carlos André - an elegant cigar that combines traditional aromas with modernity.
Over 200 years of knowledge and experience in the world of tobacco meets first-class craftsmanship, a refined interplay between excellent tobacco and a contemporary spirit.
Named after the youngest son of the company's owner, it represents both the future 8th generation of André and the link with the family, bridging the gap between tradition and modernity. With the "Family Reserve" label, the exclusive premium brand Carlos André is the expression of a trans-generational passion for cigars - Expression for passion.
