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
With over 265 years of uninterrupted activity, Hampden, the iconic Jamaican distillery founded in 1753, brings to the fore an emblematic profile of the High Esters Rums characteristic of the Jamaican distillery. A journey into another world, as the ancestral manufacturing process gives it all the charm of typical rums with unrivalled power. The molasses first undergoes a very long, wild, natural fermentation before distillation in a copper pot still with double retort.
Product Detail
Discover the unique charm of "Rhum du Monde OWH", a rare and limited edition from the prestigious Hampden distillery in Jamaica, selected and bottled by Kirsch Whisky & Eye For Spirits. Distilled from molasses in 2012 and aged for 5 years in a tropical climate (equivalent to 15 years in a continental climate), then a further 3 years in a continental climate in old Bourbon casks. This rum has an alcohol content of 58.4%. It contains the very essence of Jamaica in each of the 261 bottles produced. Savour the exquisite blend of mango, pineapple and vanilla aromas, which transition seamlessly into an intense, woody palette with a hint of roasted notes. Described as an "easy sipper", its unique flavour profile is accentuated by a delicious blend of fruits and spices, making it a must for collectors and connoisseurs looking for an exceptional Jamaican rum experience.

Tasting Notes
This rum is surprisingly complex. Intense nose of ripe fruit (banana, mango), sweet spices, caramelized apples and a touch of smoke. The palate is lively and spicy, with hints of molasses and ripe exotic fruit. The finish is explosive: what a great rum!
