Mostly positive feelings about this one. First off it looks like a beautiful cigar. Beautiful banding and the construction, colour, texture and smell are all very alluring. Lovely dark brown wrapper rolled perfectly (no seams) as well as being nicely toothy. Taste wise, the first quarter was very bitter. I quite like some bitterness occasionally for a bit of kick but this was a bit overwhelming. However, this happens with nearly any brand of cigar and so its to be expected from time to time. After the first quarter the flavour mellowed out to some nice strong oaky notes with a bit of burnt toffee-like sweetness. The ash held very well and the burn was ok if a little off every now and again. It did go out twice which I wasnt pleased about but luckily this one is fine with being relit. In conclusion, I think the price is a bit high. Id put this in the same class as the Luis Martinez ashcroft corona in terms of quality. Well worth a shout!

AVO Classic Uvezian Puritos - 1 Single
by Matthew
I ordered this one to try because of the reviews and its a lovely little cigar. Nice draw and smooth flavours. Perfect for a little smoke specially with a very nice coffee

I love these cigars, start mellow but the flavour soon kicks in, some nice spiciness toward the final 3rd and the finish is lovely.
My only complaint is that theyre so moreish I want to constantly smoke them :)

As someone who is fairly new to smoking cigars I have tried a handful of different brands over the last few months, one of which was an Alec Bradley which I loved.
So with that in mind I thought I would treat myself to a box of these shortys.
I smoked my first last night and I am half way through my second as I write this review.
The first third is sweet and creamy which then develops into a warming pepper taste in the second third of the smoke. You are then rewarded with a subtle spice hit in the last third to finish things off.
With a ring gauge of 50 it feels nice to hold and gives a good hours smoking time. The burn is even, with a good draw and plenty of smoke.
For a cigar for under a tenner you can’t go wrong with these and I will definitely be buying again

Warm with rich aromas at a medium body. Very flavoursome with hints of sandalwood and fruits. I got a leisurely and pleasant 25 minute smoke out of it. The pull was firmer than the AVO Domaine but that didnt take away from the overall experience.
I would highly recommend. Im extremely impressed with the AVO line.

Ha, what a beast of a cigar to handle! If only for this reason its a worthwhile experiment in ones endurance.
This smoker was not overwhelmed by the flavours though preparing for disappointment I was pleasantly surprised to find a bit of sweetness and leathery texture that settled nicely a third in. Its pleasant if not massively engaging but considering just how much smoke there is with this one Id declare this consistency as a bonus. At no point does it become unpleasant or a chore.
Burn was even and construction solid and Ive encountered no problems. Again, a surprise considering its magnitude.
Its hard to deem it a go to smoke, neither the flavour nor the vitola suggests that. But its a great experience all the same and you should try it if you have the time and courage.
