Quai D'Orsay

Quai D'Orsay No.54

The Cigar

This is an entirely new size within the Habanos SA portfolio. It is very similar to the Montecristo Edmundo but a fraction wider. A light bodied, easy going and thoroughly modern Havana that is packed full of Gallic charm. 

Quai D'Orsay No.50

The Cigar

This 2017 release from Quai D'Orsay offers smokers a lighter alternative in a popular size, and comes dressed in a new band that is destined to become standard across the range. 

The Quai d'Orsay Clemenceau is the newest and sixth regional cigar for France, which celebrates the 50th anniversary of Coprova (France's official Habanos distributor), depicted by the band on the cigar.

Length: 7 Inches
Ring Gauge: 47

Only 15,000 boxes made

Quai d’Orsay was established in 1974 for the French market. The brand takes its name from the avenue in Paris beside the river Seine that used to be home to the headquarters of SEITA, the then state- owned tobacco importer for France who with

Cubatabaco (now Habanos s.a.), joined forces to produce an elegant Cuban brand with a certain je ne sais quoi.

In 2017 the brand received a make-over and two new modern sizes were introduced (No. 50 & No. 54) to join the one remaining surviving vitola (Coronas Claro). Since  then the brand has gone from strength to strength with Quai d’Orsay selected by Habanos s.a.to join the Habanos Limited Edition family in 2019 (Senadores) and by numerous Habanos Distributors around the world to represent their market as a Habanos Regional Edition.

The No.52 is a new vitola within the standard Habanos portfolio and like its two counterparts, is named after the ring gauge it boasts. It is perhaps closest in size to the Montecristo Double Edmundo, sharing its length but with a two-point wider girth.

Classified as light bodied, this is a delicate, well- balanced and thoroughly modern Habanos.

Quai dâOrsay Senadores Limited Edition 2019 has beautiful tatstes of the French market. Around for more then 50 years, it has developed taste and elegance.

The cigar is offered in the 109 vitola, a double robusto that measures 7 1/4 inches (184cm) long and has a 50 ring gauge and is notable for the softer shoulders and flat top of its head. While this is the first time that the 109 vitola has been used for a Quai d’Orsay Edición Regional, the Selection Royale ER Switzerland marks the third time that Intertabak AG, the distributor of Habanos S.A. in Switzerland, has selected the vitola for an Edición Regional.

Production is capped at 80,000 cigars, with 1,600 sliding-lid boxes of 50 cigars produced.

 The Quai d'Orsay Capitolio Cigar (Ex. Francia 2018) is the sixth regional edition Cuban Cigars, exclusively handmade for the French market

Founded by Valerie Giscard d'Estaing in 1970, Quai d'Orsay Cigars were first introduced as a Regional Edition brand specifically for France. Although the brand was originally created in an attempt to accompany the country's famous lifestyle products, like champagne and foie gras - it gradually became a favourite amongst cigar connoisseurs.

A relatively large smoke, the Quai d'Orsay Capitolio Cigar measures 164 mm in length by 54 ring gauge - providing around 2 hours of smoking pleasure. It delivers a light-bodied smoke, typical of the brand.
