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
Cohiba is the flagship brand of Havana cigars. Created in 1966 for Fidel Castro himself, the brand was manufactured in the greatest secrecy at the time, and is now produced in the world-famous El Laguito factory. Originally, Cohiba cigars were only available outside Cuba as gifts for visiting heads of state and diplomats. The leaves for the Cohiba brand are the ‘crème de la crème’ of the five Vegas Finas de Primera, the best plantations in the San Juan y Martinez and San Luis regions. These two sites are both located in the Vuelta Abajo tobacco production area par excellence. The ‘1492’ line was created to celebrate each of the centuries that have passed since Christopher Columbus discovered Cuba in 1492.
Product Detail
This refined cigar is known to have been the favorite of Emilia Tamayo, former director of the renowned El Laguito factory and the first woman to lead a cigar factory in Cuba. The Seoane vitola boasts an elegant length of 12.5 cm and a ring gauge of 33, making it slightly larger than its sibling, the Cohiba Panetela. Entirely handmade by skilled torcedores, this cigar is a true testament to Cuban craftsmanship. With its slim format and light, floral aroma profile, it is the perfect companion for a morning smoke. Thanks to its quick and even burn, it is also ideal for those moments when time is limited, without ever compromising on enjoyment.
