Swiss field tobacco
Heimat Tabak is made from 100% natural Swiss tobacco, without additives or flavorings. Unlike many conventional cigarettes, it contains no artificial additives, making it a purely natural product. This ensures an authentic, unadulterated smoking experience.
The tobacco comes from Swiss cultivation areas, where it grows under natural conditions in Swiss fields. This careful sourcing ensures high quality and purity, unlike imported tobacco, which is often subject to industrial processes and additives.
Heimat Tabak is processed in a small, specialized factory in Steinach on Lake Constance. Passion and patience are at the heart of the manufacturing process. This allows for individual, precise processing of the tobacco, something that cannot be guaranteed to the same extent in large factories.

Wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse & Experteneinschätzungen
Die Qualität von Tabak wird durch zahlreiche Faktoren bestimmt – von den Anbaubedingungen über die Fermentation bis zur Verarbeitung. Wissenschaftliche Studien und Branchenexperten bestätigen die Bedeutung dieser Faktoren für das Endprodukt.
Zur Bedeutung von Zusatzstoffen in Tabakprodukten
Laut dem Bundesamt für Gesundheit (BAG) können in konventionellen Zigaretten über 600 verschiedene Zusatzstoffe enthalten sein. Diese dienen unter anderem dazu, den Geschmack zu verändern, die Inhalation zu erleichtern oder die Nikotinaufnahme zu beschleunigen. Das BAG führt eine öffentlich zugängliche Liste aller gemeldeten Zusatzstoffe in Tabakprodukten.
«Tabakprodukte ohne Zusatzstoffe ermöglichen dem Konsumenten eine transparentere Einschätzung dessen, was er konsumiert. Die Rückverfolgbarkeit vom Feld bis zum Endprodukt ist ein wichtiger Aspekt der Verbraucherinformation.»

Schweizer Tabakanbau: Zahlen und Fakten
Die Swiss Tabacco (Genossenschaft Schweizer Tabakpflanzer) dokumentiert die Entwicklung des Schweizer Tabakanbaus seit Jahrzehnten. Gemäss ihren Erhebungen wird Tabak in der Schweiz auf rund 420 Hektar angebaut, hauptsächlich in den Kantonen Waadt, Freiburg und Tessin. Die Jahresproduktion beträgt etwa 1'200 Tonnen Rohtabak.
«Der Schweizer Tabakanbau zeichnet sich durch kleinstrukturierte Familienbetriebe aus. Diese Struktur ermöglicht eine sorgfältige Pflege der Pflanzen und eine qualitätsorientierte Produktion, die in industriellen Grossbetrieben schwer zu erreichen ist.»
— Swiss Tabacco, Verband Schweizer Tabakpflanzer
Fermentation: Der Schlüssel zur Tabakqualität
Die Fermentation ist ein entscheidender Prozess in der Tabakverarbeitung. Wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen der Universität Hohenheim (Institut für Agrartechnik) zeigen, dass während der Fermentation komplexe biochemische Prozesse ablaufen: Proteine werden abgebaut, Aromastoffe entwickeln sich, und unerwünschte Bitterstoffe werden reduziert.
«Die kontrollierte Fermentation unter definierten Temperatur- und Feuchtigkeitsbedingungen ist essentiell für die Entwicklung des charakteristischen Tabakgeschmacks. Dieser Prozess kann zwischen 4 und 8 Wochen dauern und erfordert kontinuierliche Überwachung.»
— Dr. Heinrich Nösberger, Tabakforschung Schweiz (historische Publikation)
Virginia vs. Burley: Wissenschaftliche Unterschiede
Die beiden Haupttabaksorten Virginia und Burley unterscheiden sich nicht nur im Geschmack, sondern auch in ihrer biochemischen Zusammensetzung. Gemäss Analysen der Agroscope (Schweizer Kompetenzzentrum für landwirtschaftliche Forschung) weist Virginia-Tabak einen höheren natürlichen Zuckergehalt auf (bis zu 20%), während Burley-Tabak durch seine Lufttrocknung einen niedrigeren Zuckergehalt (unter 5%) und einen höheren Nikotingehalt entwickelt.
Wissenschaftlicher Vergleich der Tabaksorten
| Eigenschaft | Virginia | Burley |
|---|---|---|
| Natürlicher Zuckergehalt | 15–22% | 0.5–5% |
| Trocknungsmethode | Heisslufttrocknung (Flue-cured) | Lufttrocknung (Air-cured) |
| Trocknungsdauer | 5–7 Tage | 4–8 Wochen |
| Geschmacksprofil | Mild, leicht süsslich | Erdig, nussig, kräftig |
| Typische Blattfarbe | Golden bis hellbraun | Mittel- bis dunkelbraun |

Regionale Herkunft und Qualität
Studien zur Lebensmittelqualität – übertragbar auf Genussmittel – zeigen einen Zusammenhang zwischen regionaler Produktion und Produktqualität. Die ETH Zürich hat in verschiedenen Untersuchungen festgestellt, dass kurze Transportwege und direkte Verarbeitungsketten die Frische und Qualität landwirtschaftlicher Produkte positiv beeinflussen.
«Regionale Wertschöpfungsketten ermöglichen eine bessere Kontrolle der Produktionsbedingungen und schaffen Transparenz für den Endverbraucher. Dies gilt für Lebensmittel ebenso wie für andere landwirtschaftliche Erzeugnisse.»

Gesetzliche Rahmenbedingungen in der Schweiz
Das Tabakproduktegesetz (TabPG) , das 2024 in Kraft getreten ist, regelt die Herstellung und den Verkauf von Tabakprodukten in der Schweiz. Es schreibt unter anderem vor, dass alle Inhaltsstoffe und Zusatzstoffe deklariert werden müssen. Heimat Tabak erfüllt diese Anforderungen vollständig und geht darüber hinaus: Wir verwenden keine Zusatzstoffe, die deklariert werden müssten.

step by step
10 steps to tobacco production
This is how your local tobacco is created, which you can buy directly from us. We're a family business, and everything from the field to the factory is 100% Swiss. Clearly documented and traceable.
- Cultivation & Care (Swiss Fields)
Selected plots, regional farmers, short distances. Our tobacco is grown in Switzerland. This is the basis for our consistent quality.
- Harvesting by hand
Ripe leaves are picked gradually, ensuring the natural ripeness of each picking is consistent and the batches are cleanly separated.
- Transport to Payerne (VD)
Immediately after harvest, the wine is sent to the fermentation center. Logistics remain regional to ensure the route from field to processing remains short.
- Fermentation in Payerne
The leaves ripen under controlled conditions. Temperature, humidity, and time are recorded. Each batch receives its own fermentation profile.
- Remove the stems – leaf by leaf
After ripening, the midribs are removed. This step ensures a uniform leaf structure for the subsequent blend.
- Continue to Steinach (SG) – Manufactory on Lake Constance
In Steinach, only Swiss tobacco is processed. Blends are created here, and the tobacco is calibrated, cut, and finished here.
- Refining with Swiss mountain spring water
The leaves are gently moistened and prepared. The goal is to ensure even processing and a harmonious cut.
- Cutting & Calibration
Depending on the format (e.g., RYO/MYO), the tobacco is adjusted to the cut length and moisture content. Regular sample checks ensure consistency.
- Traceability & Documentation
From the fields to Payerne and Steinach: Every batch is fully documented. So you know where Heimat Tabak comes from and how it was processed.
- Final blend & Swiss Made finish
The “Light” and “Dark” blends are finalized, packaged, and made available for retail – without long transport routes.
