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
Maison Ferrand is renowned for its exclusive use of the life-giving waters of the First Growths, and the chalky soils of the Grande Champagne region are particularly renowned for producing some of the finest Cognac brandies in the region. The distillery and vineyards are located in the commune of Angiac. In the clay and limestone hills to the north of the commune, the favorable climate influenced by the sea produces the finest and most complex Grande Champagne spirits. For the fifth generation of Master Distillers, the Ferrand family, blending is an art and each Cognac is a masterpiece in itself. This passion, combined with the high quality of the raw materials and the traditional "lees" distillation process, creates something magical, even heavenly.
Product Detail
Sélection des Anges from the Pierre Ferrand cognac house is reminiscent of dark larch wood. In the glass, it gives off a scent of macerated fruit that immediately takes over on the palate. Aged for over 3 decades, this cognac is pleasantly discreet and soft, almost feminine, with a touch of cinnamon, jasmine and curry. Ideal with a sweet dessert or as an after-dinner drink.

Palate : Incredibly delicate and rich with initial spice such as nutmeg and sugared ginger, followed by intense fruit and slightly nutty tones.
Finish : Medium-long, soft and smooth, the fruity flavours linger on the palate for a while before finally merging into seductive oak tones.
