Avo No. 3

Good- I simply love this cigar. It has a perfect draw, copious amounts of smoke, and a delightful flavor and aroma.
BAD- I wish this smoke was a bit more affordable. I would love to have this as an everyday smoke.
UGLY- No ugly here. Beautiful wrapper and band.
Overall- To quote Buckwheat- "I nub it, nub it, nub it!!"

Very nice looks, burn and draw. Sadly, a very bitter tasting wrapper made this stick a bit of a disappointment through the first half of the smoke.

This is a medium smoke, very smooth with a great burn and draw. It started off with a hay’ish/cedar flavor that quickly turned to notes of wood, nuts and splashes of cinnamon. All these flavors seem to merge into one glorious flavor as the cigar burns. Hints of spice throughout but mostly toward the end. I nub everyone I smoke. I love these cigars and when bought in boxes of 25, they are about $5 bucks each. Needless to say, they are a big part of my cigar diet

I started smoking cigars with the complete Avo line and find time to enjoy a smooth morning smoke when I am mellow. A smooth well constructed smoke with a hint of cedar and leather. I recomend the Avo line for newbies. You will not be disappointed.

The Avo No. 3 is one of the finest mild cigars that I have had. It delivers fine hints of spice and nuts to the palate. It's a big oily stogie that will take anywhere from an hour to an hour and half to smoke. So make sure you have the time to enjoy this cigar.

This has been one of my favorite mild cigars so far. Very smooth and tasty. The only think I did'nt like is the unraveling. I look forward to enjoying more of these in the future.

This cigar has a top notch construction, great size and beautiful wrapper. The flavor is creamy and pretty nutty. It's a smooth cigar although bitter and a little harsh sometimes. All in all it doesn't really stand out and for the price there are much better values around.

Cigars in the box have consistent color. Wrapper was oily, but a little bit viney. The cigar had a good cap construction, and the cap was very easy to clip off. Lighting the cigar was very easy, and it had a very nice draw. Ash had a grayish color, but it was not firm and not as flaky compare to the other Avo¡¦s I¡¦ve smoked so far. Burn was even, but the burning rate (while smoking) was slightly higher than the other Avo I¡¦ve tasted in the past few days. Resting burn rate is pretty slow though. It didn¡¦t take much effort to puff this cigar. The smoke was mild and smooth, but there wasn¡¦t much taste to the cigar. The aroma of the cigar was pleasant, but it was a little too mild for my taste. Some flavors kicked in by the second half of the cigar, but could not tell what the flavors were. Perhaps it was my inexperience of smoking cigars, but I wouldn¡¦t recommend this cigar because of the price. It took me about 90 minutes to finish this cigar.

One of my favorite mild cigars. Try an Avo #2 if this cigar is too large.

This was my first non-Cuban cigar I have ever tried back in 1992, or 93 and I was impressed by the quality of this vitola. I would have rated this cigar at almost 9 back then.
This time it was somehow a disappointment.
Still nicely constructed with nice evenly colored wrapper it has lost its complexity and flavor since I first tried it, but still very decent and inexpensive smoke.

Not a bad cigar to smoke on the links. Make sure you have the time to really appreciate this cigar. Woody with spicey flavors, great towards the middle. Then, got a little too harsh for my taste. Good construction and appearance. Would I buy it again? Yep.

A great cigar to sit back and relax with. An exquisite mild flavor that won't get harsh or bitter. Not a smoke to be rushed.

Very consistant draw.

A nice light flavor and aroma. Well constructed. Flavors of roasted nuts.

Wonderful light taste with a hint of spice. Very smooth and even smoke from the first puff to the end of the cigar. Light pleasant after taste.
