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
The Camus cognac house, located in the Cognac Les Borderies region of France, is now in its fifth generation of producing top-quality cognacs. In 1863, the company was founded by Jean-Baptiste Camus as a distribution group for cognacs from a wide range of houses - at the time, these were marketed under the name ‘La Grande Marque’. Today, Camus is run by Cyril, Jean-Baptiste's direct descendant. Over 180 hectares, they produce the smallest and rarest crus, which generally give cognacs with intense, floral notes.
Product Detail
The Camus Intensely Aromatic range is made up of blends of the best eaux-de-vie from the Les Borderies crus, with the VSOP distinguished by its high terpenol content and incomparable floral fragrances. This is an intensely aromatic cognac whose floral and fruity aromas with notes of oak, spices and vanilla come from the meticulous selection of eaux-de-vie. They reflect the main aromas of the terroir, some of which come from the Les Borderies cru. The casks used for ageing each contain little tannin.
