Avo Maduro Brand Reviews | Famous Smoke Shop

"Surprisingly Satisfying, would purchase again"

A larger ring size would be a nice addition to an already good value for the money.

"This Stick has it all"

I have to agree with Navon's review. After trying a 5 pack this has become my all time favorite. Construction, Burn, draw, Flavor, aroma. All aspects of the Avo Maduro are muy excellente! Every cigar in this 5 pack burned perfectly even, no relighting or correction needed. Perfect medium draw no variation cigar to cigar. The wrapper is a beautiful Colorado Maduro, not excessively dark, a nice reddish bark color. A nice slightly oily sheen without being excessively oily. The wrappers were stout without being too thick and were nice and toothy which I like. Above all this smoke was very flavorful with no harshness at any point down to the nub. The strength built progressively and never got overbearing. A lot of cigars, even good ones, will really turn harsh somewhere past the midway point. These never did that. The ash was light in color and firm, not flaky. These aroma of these Avo's was incredible. I typically smoke full bodied cigars, tend to CAO Cameroons, The old La Gloria Cubana's, and El Rico Habano's. The flavor of these Avo's was full bodied with none of the harshness. I'm sold and these will be my go to cigar going forward.

"Avo's Best"

This cigar is without a doubt the best in the Avo collection. He knew what he was doing when he crafted this baby. It is mild but full of flavor, probably because of the rich, oily maduro wrapper. This is a great cigar to enjoy with that friend who usually turns green at the sight of a cigar. The smoothness of this cigar is unmatched not only by other Avo cigars, but by ANY other cigar, period.

"Avo's best ! Try this cigar"

This is Avo's best in their lineup. I really can't add much to the above review. I admit I'm a maduro lover, so maybe I'm biased. I didn't care for the rest of the Avo's, but the maduro is spot on!

"Avo at its best!"

What a pleasant experience! While celebrating my daughter's Sweet Sixteen, I fired up one Avo Maduro long forgotten in my humi, it had been sometime since I had such a tasty evening. Well made (Robusto, No. 9), perfect draw and the flavors were something else; hints of coffee, leather, some notes of sweet caramel and no bite at all. This is the ONE Avo that's going to be a staple in the regular rotation. Much better than Cubans twice the price. Just ordered a box...

"Wonderful smoke with an awesome after taste!!"

I purchased a 5 pack a couple of months ago and when I received them I was impressed with the its appearance. After smoking the first one right out of the celo I was very pleased with the even burn, wonderful taste, ease of draw and nice solid ash. I'm not much of a Maduro wrapper smoker but after these I'm more open to them...I offered these to a couple of newer cigar smokers and they were so pleased with the Avo Maduro they purchased a box for themselves....this is a must try and must have in the humidor!

"Great 5 pack"

Great smooth cigar, I rate this at the top of my Maduro smokes. I got the 5 pack, if not so pricy I would go for a box.

"Disappointing Cigar"

Very disapointed with this one. Nice presentation: construction was nice, good color, good draw. Burn was very poor, even for a maduro wrapper, had too much "bite", flavor was not there, just a strong one dimensional flavor. Put it to rest at about the halfway point. Will not be buying any more of these. Should have just fired up the Domaine instead!

"Outstanding Smoke"

I had one of the Piramides during an excellent golf round, and the look, presentation was excelelnt. The most noticable was the "Outstanding" draw of the cigar and the burn, flavor and finish was always excellent. Simply outstanding from start to end!

"Great smoke, smooth, burns nicely and tastes great"

Nice packaging and cigars themselves are well-constructed. First one revealed a smooth, creamy smoke with hints of cocoa and coffee... Just strong enough but maybe not for a mild cigar-lover. It burns well, tastes great and has quickly become my favorite.
