tjhernandez34 Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 As I am sure most of you know Quai d'Orsay is a very small production brand, and due to this not every tobacconist stocks it. I have been very interested in trying these cigars, but before I do I was looking for some of the members' input on this brand. What are your experiences? What vitolas do you prefer (including the discontinued ones)? What do you think of the regional editions (Asia/Pacific and France)? Any input is better than no input! Thanks for the help. Travis
Ghabanos Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 I love these... but don't have the vocab to describe them well... see other links below for other members review link1 link2 link3 link4
Strada Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 Goood links by Ghabanos. I enjoy the coronas and imperiales and I would love to try out the Gran Coronas.
Ghabanos Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 I'm still searching for boxes of gran caronas too
Cigar Connoisseur Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 First let me start by saying these are excellent smokes! I belive everyone should try them at least once... Second I must thank Ghabanos for those links, im sure I, Travis and the rest who read this will appriciate those links and respark an intrest in obtaining QDO in the next couple of LFTH, I'm sure it will be a blood bath with people pulling the trigger even before the image fully loads, so for my recent "fan's" I'll be there just for "you", clicking "Mine".... Third.... Travis if you would like, shoot me a PM with your addy and I'll send you an Imperial if you already havent had one. I believe the QDO is an awesome cigar and worthy of being in anybodys collection..... Regards, Manny

riazp Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 Very nice gesture Manny, thats what this brotherhood is all about. i'm going to buy a box of coronas sooner rather than later. I've had the imperiales, from 2010, the first thrid was bland but the second and last third...HOLY COW. i'M thininking to let the few others i have left rest for another 6 months to a year to see how that first third will open up.
Bartolomeo Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 I just started getting into these the last 6 months, thanks to my friend Robbie(miamipadronsmoker) and i love them Imperiales and coronas are smoking excellent and you are well rewarded if you smoke them slow Bart
tjhernandez34 Posted February 18, 2012 Author Posted February 18, 2012 Thanks so much for all of the responses! I found the links very helpful. Manny you're a great BOTL. Cheers to you.
Skitalets Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 I just got a box of the coronas for Christmas. First one ROTT was just okay. Waited a month so they could acclimate and they are now superb. My box is from 2008 -- they must really not be selling well at all.

MrGlass Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 As a result of the hype Quai D'Orsay have been getting here in the past few months, I got myself a box of Coronas just before Christmas. I have never smoked anything as sweet as these - it was like a sugar stick. As is mentioned in Rob's review, you need to be in the right mindset to really enjoy these, but I am really glad I went out on a limb and got myself a box. For me, they will never be the sort of cigar I pick on a whim. But they will be there for me when I am in that mood, and for that I'm happy.
Yoruba Hacker Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 The Coronas are pretty much my favorite everyday smoke, along with the Fonseca Cosacos. Slightly ambivalent that they are getting all this pub. Kinda liked them as my secret pleasure. Big ups to our boy Van for turning me on to these. I will always think of him when I smoke them.
khomeinist Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Secret pleasures get discontinued. Great marca. Wish all the vitolas were still being produced.
dvickery Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 tjhernandez43 coronas and panatellas from '01 if you can find em...perhaps the best year ever for q'do. derrek
