Quai d'Orsay is a brand designed specifically for the French market. Created in the 1970s, it takes its name from the famous quays along the Seine in Paris. All its vitolas, which are designed to be light, are made from a combination of leaves from the Vuelta Abajo region and dressed in Claro (wax) or Colorado Claro (light brown) capes. All are Totalmento a Mano, Trip Larga (entirely handmade, long filler).
Product Detail
The Quai d'Orsay Corona was available in two versions, Coronas Claro and Coronas Claro Claro. The name behind ‘Coronas’ refers to the colour of the packaging, which in the first case means Colorado Claro (chestnut brown) and in the second case ‘Clarissimo’, which means almost green. However, the second version has disappeared over time. The Quai d'Orsay Corona Claro pampers smokers with pleasant cocoa flavours, combined with woody notes and earthy tones. It is exceptionally mild for a Cuban cigar, making it ideal for beginners.

Description
Brand Story
In 1846, two brothers of Galician origin, Ramon and Antonio Allones, launched this label, which was the first to decorate its cigar boxes with vistas (representing the coat of arms of the House of Spain), manufactured in a Havana workshop called La Eminencia. Ramon Allones was a true innovator, who made Havana a symbol of luxury. The firm owned one of the finest fincas in the Vualta Abajo, El Corojo, in the village of San Luis. From 1903 to 1905, Ramon, along with his brother Antonio, led the Front du Refus organised by some of the island's landowners to resist the American Tobacco Company, but he was forced to sell the brand in 1911 to British investors, the Hunters company. As a result, England gained exclusive worldwide rights to market the brand. In 1932, Ramon Allones came under the control of the Cifuentes family (Partagas), but the United Kingdom retained a monopoly on the brand. For a long time, Ramon Allones cigars could only be found in England.
