January 16, 2012 — The most important Parisian cigar shops were invited on 12th January 2012 at the very select Travellers Club, on the Champs Elysees in Paris, France.

During an elegant dinner served in the pure “a la francaise” tradition, the new vitola, exclusively rolled for French market, has been presented to the retailers by Antoine Bathie, Premium Cigars Manager. This was the occasion to highlight the main qualities of this Habano whose 52 cepo and 115 mm length are very close to current aficionados expectations.

We are very proud of this “Robusto Embajador”, a Habano delivering beautiful aromatic complexity. Intrinsic qualities will enable us to put the full Quai d’Orsay range under the spotlight.”
