QdO Coronas Claro?

[DSegal]

Has anyone tried these? And has anyone seen them on a shelf in Cuba recently? If so, maybe you'd share where...I am going in a few weeks and want to locate some. Just tried a QdO Capitolio and it was a treat. I have 3 more that my dad brought back from France last year.

Ha no sir, they disappeared a long time ago. Haven't been rolled in about a year I think?

I imagine he means the new ones...

Its almost like they rolled a batch with the new packaging to prove to everyone they weren't going away. Then, they went away. Haha

The Quai d'Orsay No.50 and No.54 proved so popular that yeah, they probably diverted all leaf for Quai d'Orsay into those two releases. (Has anyone seen any) Quai d'Orsay Senadores, anyone?

This. Lol.
I saw two boxes in Havana’s LCDH’s and bought one last Fall. Nothing since.

I bought a couple of boxes at the Partagas shop in Havana this past November, both with box code MSU Jun19.....

Thanks for the heads up and a good box code too. So...have you smoked a few yet?

Not yet although I smoked a couple from a 2018 box with the new design.  They were too fresh and a little harsh.  IMO coronas claros need some downtime.....

I will check out the Partagas store and see what they have...going in about 10 days.

None last week when I was there. Lots of QdO No. 50s in both 10 and 25 formats around town. Only saw one box of QdO No. 54, which was a box of 10 that my BOTL/coworker picked up at my suggestion.
