Originally created in the 1970s exclusively for the French market, the Quai D'Orsay brand came in a handful of sizes and is considered a fairly mild to medium-bodied smoke. The Cuban cigar monopoly recently launched a completely new Quai D'Orsay, transforming it from a regional cigar to a global brand. The bands and boxes were redesigned, the line was given two new sizes—thicker vitolas intended to appeal to a larger market. Now, the brand can be found all over the world, and we found the No. 54 to be quite remarkable. While today's Quai D'Orsay is different, it is a subtle and refined Cuban cigar.
The first third offers flavours of cream, vanilla, and a hint of sweetness. The grassy and summer fruit notes become more prominent towards the end, joined by coffee and a subtle oak wood notes.
