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 release of limited premium editions has long been a common practice in the rum and whisky industry, which can feature experimental aging processes or special finishes. It's no surprise, then, that Panama-based Ron Abuelo has released a number of special editions in addition to its classic portfolio.
Product Detail
The 15 Year Old Cognac Cask Finish Rum is made from sugarcane sourced from the Finca San Isidro distillery. However, this is neither molasses nor freshly squeezed juice, but a honey-like syrup made by further processing the cane juice. While the maturation of Solera in ex-bourbon barrels gives the rum its basic sweetness and spice, the final refinement in Cognac barrels creates exciting flavors of dried fruit and coffee. Napoleon is added to clarify that the Cognac brandy has been aged in casks for at least six years prior to maturation.

Tasting Notes
Nose : Aromas of vanilla and musty bourbon oak lead to sweet fruit and pound cake with hints of green and black peppercorns over bitter wood.
Palate : A sweet caramel entry leads to bold cognac wood in the complex mid-palate, with a balance between sweet fruit and dry vanilla.
Finish : Wonderfully viscous, fading into echoes of honey, green banana and flowers.
