The Quorum Shade represents the mildest expression in the Quorum lineup, featuring a smooth Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper that delivers a refined smoking experience with medium body and balanced flavors. Professional reviews describe notes of natural tobacco, cedar, earth, and citrus with hints of black pepper, cocoa powder, and white pepper, creating a complex yet approachable profile. The cigar progresses from tart citrus notes in the first third to sweeter, more earthy tones with subtle grassy overtones from the shade wrapper, finishing with pleasant sweetness and moderate pepper spice.
