Avo 80th

[geckoheart]

Stopped by one of the local shops today and picked up an Avo 80th Anniversary cigar. Anyone smoked one of these yet? Thoughts or opinions?

AVO's are traditionally good... a little on the light side....
but good cigars

All reports I've read indicate this is one of the stronger Avo's ... similiar to the LE-5, but still a bit rough.

Definitely post your thoughts on the cigar after you try it gecko!

I have heard some good things about them but I have tried one yet. Hmmm maybe tomorrow?

 

[tobby4]

hmmm a little stronger eh.... I might have to check one of these out myself...

 

[ohpus]

one thing I like about the limited/special editions of avo is that they all start off fairly mild but my mid range tons of flavor and last third nice strength! a cigar that always develops nicely!

My friend just smoked one and said it was a combination between a Davidoff Special R and a Opus X Annis flavors.

Anymore comments about the 80th?

I just picked up 3 from the B&M. $18 each w/ tax.

I picked one up two weeks ago in PA. Its resting. Be interested in feedback from those who have tried them also.

YIKES !! Let us know Rob. Hard to justify at that price but ya never know until you try.

Let me know what they charge if you don't mind Tom. I know I paid WAY too much, but I figure since I go to the B&M probably 3x a year I was due a little gouging.

 

[caudio51]

Definitely will

Smoked mine about 2 weeks ago on the deck at 1 in the morning with some Appleton Estates X/V rum while watching Wedding Crashers. Great cigar, as above started mild and built in strength as I smoked it. Smoked it to a nub. Not sure what I paid for it, but I'll try to get my hands on a few more for special occasion smokes.
