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
A Speyside single malt Scotch whisky as fascinating and exceptional as Benriach would have been unthinkable without a unique whisky heritage dating back to 1898, when founder John Duff established his distillery. Benriach stands on the site of the old Riach farm in the north of Speyside and draws water from a mineral-rich aquifer deep beneath the distillery. Thanks to a long-standing tradition of distilling whisky in three styles - classic unpeated, Highland peated and triple distilled - and an eclectic selection of casks from around the world, our whisky makers are able to explore the full flavor possibilities of single malt and produce some of the richest, most complex whiskies in Speyside. This tradition continues today under the lea dership of Master Blender, Rachel Barrie. Benriach is the story of a hidden Speyside gem, quietly revealing its treasures to be discovered and enjoyed.
Product Detail
Benriach The Sixteen is an unpeated single malt aged for 16 years in sherry, Bourbon and new oak barrels. The whiskey from each cask is then expertly blended to create a rich and complex single malt. This excellent Scottish single malt made by Rachel Barrie delivers notes of honeyed malt, hazelnuts and spices. An exceptional single malt to discover.
