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 oldest cigar factory in the Dominican Republic
La Aurora was founded on 3 October 1903 by Eduardo León Jimenes, the hard-working son and grandson of tobacco farmers. Without neglecting his family tradition, he decided to use his knowledge to develop a cigar brand with worldwide appeal. At the age of 18, the founder inherited a few ‘tareas’ of land and began to realise his dream with a small staff of six, great enthusiasm and a great deal of effort. Today, more than 115 years later, La Aurora is a family business with a presence on five continents, employing more than a thousand people and, under the leadership of his grandson Guillermo León Herbert, continuing to cultivate the La Aurora values: honesty, integrity, a passion for excellence and good relations with suppliers and employees.
