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
1840 would be the first known date of the Punch brand, registered by a German named Stockmann. Manuel Lopez Fernandez became the owner in 1884 and took the cigar up the first steps of the modern era. From 1898 to 1922, thanks to Manuel's inventive and energetic management, the brand reached its peak. In 1930, Punch became part of the Fernandez Palacio Group. Along with Belinda, La Esception and Hoyo de Monterrey, Punch was manufactured in the Rayo Street factory until the advent of the revolution.
Product Detail
The cigar is slightly creamy with a subtle sweetness. Woody notes and spicy aromas complete the cigar's full body. The tobaccos used have been carefully grown and processed by hand at the Vuelta Abajo in Pinar del Río.
