AVO Cigars announced the the fifth installment in its AVO Limited Edition Improvisations Series: AVO Improvisation LE17.
The cigar packaging โย in keeping with the brandโs musical themes โ features a full black leather exterior with orange leather interior lid and dual silver clasps. Itโs meant to be evocative of a vintage guitar case.
As for the cigar itself, the AVO Improvisation LE17 draws inspiration from three other AVO products. According to a press release, โThe new blend utilizes the same variety of Dominican binder and filler tobaccos that were featured in the AVO LE05, blended with the same Estelรญ, Nicaragua filler tobacco used in the AVO Syncro Nicaragua Fogata and presented in the 6 x 60 boxed pressed format of the AVO Syncro Nicaragua Special Toro.โ
โWhen developing the fifth AVO Improvisation blend, I wanted to use the foundation of my fifth AVO Limited Edition ever released, the celebrated AVO LE05, to see if we could craft something extra special,โ said Avo Uvezian in that same release. โWhen we blended in filler tobacco from Estelรญ, my palate immediately began to dance with the many flavor notes. The combination worked so well together that a 60-ring gauge format was the proper way to fully showcase this wonderful arrangement, finished in a flawless box pressed shape.โ
The cigar is wrapped in Ecuadorian Habano and is priced at $18 per cigar, or $288 for a box of 16.
