The Avo line of premium cigars has its roots firmly planted before the cigar boom of the mid 90s. Like most good things, Avo cigars were born of a chance meeting between composer and entrepreneur, Avo Uvezian and master cigar maker Hendrik Kelner of Davidoff fame. The details of their first meeting in the Dominican Republic are a little fuzzy, but the two became close friends and developed a cigar together that bore Avo’s name. The 1st cigars were sold in 1987 in New York, and they quickly gained notoriety for their delicate, well balanced flavors. Uvezian approached blending like composing, understanding how different components affected the overall to finished product. Kelner worked hand in hand with him to bring his visions to life. He also convinced Avo to let Davidoff handle his distribution and eventually purchase the brand. Though Avo passed away a few years ago, the brand continues to create masterful blends that are well received.
Avo Syncro Nicaragua is a cigar inspired by the cosmopolitan lifestyle of legendary jazz and cigar composer of global fame, Avo Uvezian. For the newest AVO release, they ventured their Dominican roots to capture exotic notes from vibrant cultures around the world and create an exciting collection of blends called Syncro. To ensure a complex and memorable experience, Avo Syncro Nicaragua uses a filler blend of Nicaraguan tobaccos from Ometepe, Peruvian tobaccos from Olancho, and 3 types of Dominican tobaccos. For a binder, A Dominican Olor leaf is used. To cap off the blend and lend an attractive look to cigar, a dark and oily, Connecticut Ecuador wrapper is used. The Avo Syncro Nicaragua is a complex blend. Multilayered flavors of spice, pepper, cedar, earth, and cream are prevalent in the blend. These flavors synchronize perfectly and provide a medium to full-strength cigar that is full flavored. This blend is the most daring and exciting Avo blend to date.
