I brought one of these over to Double D's to smoke after we finished returning all the furniture back to where it belonged after we moved it for the Thanksgiving day dinner over at his house only to find the work done because his wife got tired of waiting for me to get home from work (doing server maintenance on a Saturday) lol :thumbs: .

Filler: Ligero + Seco San Vincente

Binder: Dominican

Wrapper: Ecuador

12 cm x 50 ring

7,50€

This was a really nice looking cigar, smooth shiny light brown wrapper with only one large vein, construction was firm with no soft spots. I clipped it and toasted the foot producing a nice rich tobacco smell noticable over the RP 1990 Double D had fired up.

I took a sip of the double dram of Bushmills 1680 12 year-old I had poured and took a large puff. Very heavy undertones of pepper and nutmeg blasted across my tastebuds and volumes of a yellow tinged smoke poured from my mouth. This cigar burned like it was lit by a laser, the ash was a very dark grey with a pure white core. As the cigar progressed the inital spice was replaced by a more woodsy taste, I looked over at my friend and said "Wow I'm going to have to pick some more of these up, this is a damn good cigar."

As I sipped my excellent whiskey and puffed on this wonderful cigar I fell into a state of what I like to call cigar bliss, I had a wonderful buzz and my arms and legs felt leaden and I sunk deeper into the smokeroom's couch. I was able to keep the ash on for about 3/4ths of the cigar before I decided to give it a tap into the ashtray to keep myself from dropping it into my eyes. As I finally noticed the heat on my forefinger and thumb I nubbed it.

I can't say how long I sat there staring at the clouds of smoke dissipating into the room, but what I can tell you is this was a great cigar and a worthy addition to any Humidor.
 
Nice review. I like these Avo's quite a bit. Recently I had to oportunity to smoke one with Avo himself (see profile for pic :cool: ). If you like these, try an LE5 or 22.

is it me or does the AVO's generally have a sweet smell to their wrappers? the draw and the taste is good but some of the AVO's have disappointed me tho.
