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
Château de Laubade was founded in 1870, in the heart of Bas Armagnac, the noblest terroir. Today, the third generation of the Lesgourgues family is part of a sustainable model, overseeing the destiny of the appellation's largest vineyard, covering 105 hectares and facing the Pyrenees, where the emblematic Baco remains the majority grape variety. Is the only Armagnac House coopering its own casks, from Gascony oak to ensure the finest maturing process. They use a unique range selection of rare vintages that are aged 15 to 50 years old.
Product Detail
The blended armagnacs are the result of meticulous work by the Cellar Master: the selection and blending of eaux-de-vie from different years and grape varieties to create, like a perfumer, an armagnac of great richness of flavour and aromatic complexity. X.O. is a blend of mainly Ugni Blanc and Colombard, complemented by Baco and Folle Blanche, aged for 15 to 25 years.
