The essence of elegance: Quai d'Orsay No. 54
Quai d'Orsay No. 54 represents the perfect harmony between aesthetics and sensory experience. Its colorado wrapper invites closer examination. Once in the hand, the cigar's supple texture is indicative of a skilful filling by expert hands.
As you sip, reminiscences of Cuban know-how are evident in every puff. The easy lighting reveals a generous smoke and carries with it the heritage of a rich tobacco culture deeply rooted on the island of Cuba.
A journey of taste in three stages
From the outset, frank woody notes caress the palate, marking the beginnings of a gustatory adventure of moderate intensity. Gradually, a peppery ballet begins its dance, revealing a pungent and memorable first stage.
The aromatic narrative continues in the second third with scents of leather, intertwining in a calming tempo, inviting reflection. The smooth, natural transition underlines the subtle nuances of the carefully selected leaf blend.
Original fragrances and the expression of terroir
The third and final third awakens the senses with an intensification of aromas: precious woods combine with light touches of pepper, awakening an unexpected richness. This return to dynamism underlines an exceptional vintage in which every leaf contributes to the complex symphony of flavors.
This cigar, whose leaves are grown in the heart of Cuba's finest soils, celebrates regions whose reputation is well established. Vuelta Abajo and Pinar del Rio give this noble smoking edifice an undisputed identity, reflecting a fertile land steeped in tradition.
Manufacturing to meet expectations
The construction of Quai d'Orsay No. 54 is impeccably rigorous, reflecting decades of expertise. The hand of the torcedores, faithful repositories of the most refined techniques, shapes each cigar like a work of art in its own right.
