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 brand was created in the 1930s. On the outside of the lids of its tins is a very curious text, written in English. This text states that the Habanos in the tin should be smoked within a month of being shipped from the port of Havana (at the time Habanos travelled by sea), otherwise it was preferable to leave them to age carefully for a year. Its vitolas, made from leaves grown in the Vuelta Abajo region, are characterised by their lightness.
Product Detail
Rafael Gonzalez Petit Coronas offers smokers a creamy, slightly sweet smoke. Petit Coronas is a longfiller made with tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo growing region. As with the brand's other formats, the blend is very mild, making the cigar ideal for experienced smokers and beginners alike. The box is a little bit special, as it still bears the inscription that cigars must be smoked within one month of shipment from Havana, or consumed after one year's maturation.
