Detailed Description

Brand Story 

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.

Brand Story

The history of Balvenie is closely linked to that of other distilleries. It all began in 1892 in Dufftown when John and William Grant decided, after having built Glenfiddich not far away, to build a second distillery. You will have understood, she will be named Balvenie. The distillery has always belonged to the same company since its creation: William Grant and Sons. Balvenie’s reputation is that of a distillery of absolute classicism. It's hard to find a Balvenie that's bad, just as it was difficult at one time to find a version that was off the beaten track. A new range in place for two years has changed the situation and today The Balvenie has a new face.

Product Detail

The Stories The Balvenie announces the launch of The Balvenie Stories collection of single malt whiskeys reflecting the character, effort and craftsmanship that characterize The Balvenie distillery in Scotland. An evolution of The Balvenie Peat Week 14 Year Old, which launched globally in 2017. This expression tells the story of Master Distiller David Stewart MBE and former Distillery Director Ian Millar , who took advantage of a one-week gap in the distillery's production program to test peat in the barley drying process, on samples of various ages taken since 2002. The result is a classic The Balvenie expression, with notes of honey, vanilla and citrus and an added touch of smokiness.
