Avo Heritage


An Avo with a nice bite to it.

The Heritage Series of AVO is a remarkable, medium to full-bodied blend that pays homage to the farmers, blenders, and rollers responsible for making AVO one of the industry’s premier, super-premium brands. Avo Uvezian worked side by side with cigar-making legend Hendrik ’Henke’ Kelner to select the finest Cuban-seed, Ecuadorian sun-grown wrappers attainable, and combine a robust mixture of Cuban-seed Dominican long-fillers inside. The result is a satisfying series of rich, complex flavors delivered in smooth, balanced fashion. The core is creamy with notes of toast and cocoa, and a touch of sweet cedar and subtle spices on the finish.

AVO Heritage Series was awarded a 90-point rating, noting: "A very dark and oily cigar that smokes evenly. It starts out a bit papery but warms to show a woody, leathery
character and apple-like sweetness."
