Flavor - This cigar started out with more spice than the other Avo regulars. However, it was a bit lighter in body than the Domaine and had this very subtle, yet interesting, grassy note which lasted through the 3/4 of the cigar I smoked. The spice mellowed between the first 1/4 and the second 1/4 but stayed relatively constant from then on. Towards the 3/4 mark most spice disappeared and the grassy taste remained, if not increased. It was at this point I put it out.

I like the subtle grassy taste early on but I grew tired of it by the time I put it out.

That being said, I like it more than most AVO's, but I will need to do a comparison between a signature and a Domaine to determine which I like the most. I also had the impression that this cigar might be better if it rests for a year or so.


All-in-all if you want to try a quality smoke with a bit of spice and a easy to recognize grassy flavor, this is the one for you to try.

I give this cigar a solid B.
