"great"
I am a huge cigar smoker and AVO never fails to wow me. This cigar is very earth and different, with a hint of leather a coco. Very well made cigar

"Perfectly Ordinary"
The Signature series strikes me as a good, over-priced cigar. It may be a bit fuller-bodied than the regular Avo's, but not enough to justify the price. I liked it, but for a super-premium there are better values out there.

"Evening Smoke"
Great looking oily wrapper. A bit nutty, it develops earthy and cocoa bean flavors. Quite strong for an AVO, it is a long and luxurious smoke.

"AVO"
I got a 5 pack for Father's day, and was anxious to try them because of the Avo reputation. The cigars are beautifully made, with silky wrappers that are relatively vein free. The draw was perfect, the ash was white, and the smoke volume was great. They burned slow, cool and even the whole way through. Unfortunately, I found the taste to be lacking in strength, depth, and complexity. It was weak and bland. I will try aging them, and see what developes.

"One of the best domestics"
Compared to the avo signature robusto the double corona is a knockout. When the robusto gets to getting good, your putting it down, the "dc" keeps getting better and better from 1/8 of an inch until its done

"Good Cigar, average value"
I'm a long-time fan of Avo's, so I was excited to try this new line. Mostly it lived up to expectations, but I do agree with others that the draw could have been tighter. Still, a very tasty smoke.

"Pretty dull"
Good looking cigar. Burn was even, draw was too free. Flavor was pleasant but unremarkable with little depth or strength. This cigar is way overpriced.

"It might be the same..."
Nothing like the cigar I had hoped it would be. This one had a nutty flavor. Not unlike the corojos I have smoked. The refinement of the 75th was there, but not the flavor. I'll have to leave them in the box for a while and see what a yaer or so does for them.

"Noteworthy, but Pricey"
I got a box of the 75th Anniversary Avo's which were later released as the Signature series. A very interesting situation as the first smoke was "ho hum" -- smooth, but no flavor. After a few months in the humidor, I gave another try, and it was drastically better -- a nutty, mellow flavor that represents the height of Avo. The smokes remained good, but then seemed to peak after a bit. In sum, a noteworthy smoke, but a bit tempermental, and for this kind of money it should be highly consistent.

Simpley the best I ever smoked. Partagas Serie-D No 4, is left behind same goes for Trinidad. Will smoke´em only at special occasions, even though I got a few.

Superb cigar - give one a try if you can - I don't think they'll be around for long. It's great to see a full-bodied cigar from Avo. I wish they wold make a cigar like this for their regular production line.
