Quai d Orsay No. 50 Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Thursday 30 October, 2025 by Barry

Classy looking cigar, quite understated, lovely mocha wrapper. Very subtle flavours, slightly peppery on the lips with a sweet, creamy coffee upfront followed by gentle roasted pecan and gentle, aromatic cedar. Overly packed and nearly impossible to draw, needed at least 3 successive and long draws to produce a minimal amount of smoke, fairly uneven burn requiring 2 significant corrections...seems to be getting more regular with Cuban cigars and at Cuban prices it's not really good enough.

Really wanted to enjoy this as I love the No 52 But this was bad ( loved the idea ) of a small smoke, ideal for lunchtimes or on the go. But was just bad, no real flavour, but even worse was the draw, extremely hard and difficult, which just took the pleasure out of it Definitely won't be going back into my collection.

Very nice cigar. Subtle flavours but very pleasant. Perfect burn, easy draw. Will def buy again and likely try the larger vitola next time too

A lovely little light daytime smoke. Great burn and construction

This is my first ever cigar. So take this review on that basis. It seemed to light easy enough, and was even to start with. It was a smooth nutty taste and the smile had no harshness in the first 1/3.as it progressed, I had trouble keeping it lit (could have been my lack of experience), and it turned bitter. So bitter that by the last 3rd I had to stop. It was enjoyable in that first 3rs and an easy first cigar to try. I may get it again, but will probably look for something sweeter.
