Quai D’Orsay No.52 Cigar – Single

The Quai D’Orsay No.52 Cigar debuted on 20 October 2022 at Hôtel de La Marine in Paris, near the historic Avenue Quai D’Orsay that inspired the brand’s name. This Cuban cigar features a Robusto format with a 52-ring gauge and 156 mm (6 1/8 inches) length, designed for a light to medium-bodied profile.

Construction and Performance

The Quai D’Orsay No.52 uses a seamless wrapper that maintains an even burn and consistent draw. Its combustion lasts approximately 75 minutes due to a slow-burning filler blend, requiring minimal relighting.

Flavor Development

• Initial Notes: Creamy tobacco with cedar undertones
• Mid-Session: Spiced oak transitions into roasted coffee and cocoa
• Final Third: Subtle leather emerges alongside residual sweetness

Mild peppery accents appear intermittently without overpowering the core flavors. The blend incorporates aged Vuelta Abajo leaves, contributing to its balanced progression.

Packaging and Availability

Sold as a single unit, the Quai D’Orsay No.52 arrives in Habanos’ signature lacquered box. This release marks the brand’s first new vitola since 2019, expanding its portfolio of Parisian-inspired Cuban cigars.
