Cocoa, roasted peanuts, and black coffee take the lead in the Special Toro, a broad 6 x 60 box-pressed smoke that gives the blend more room to coat the palate. Under that dark Ecuador wrapper, AVO packs a Mexican binder and fillers from Nicaragua, Brazil, Peru, Honduras, and the Dominican Republic, all rolled at O.K. Cigars in the Dominican Republic. The result leans medium to medium-full, with a slower burn and a fuller, creamier mouthfeel that suits the big-ring format beautifully.
