Linc, Yea, is was suspose to be "try", I saw it after I hit the send key and it was too late.

Had an AVO maduro last night with a cup of dark roast, complements of my secret santa. Don't know if I was really enjoying the smoke, or that I didn't like being outside in 35 degree weather, but I nubbed that puppy in about 40 minutes. Tasty smoke indeed.

very nice pic zito.

What would you compare this cigar to? I think I need to revisit AVO in the near future again.

I've been an Avo ho for most of my time in cigars (altho my last box was "off"). I definitely have these on my list. Would love to hear your thoughts on them.

Good looking smoke. Any additional thoughts Tim?

mmmmm

Sister smoke to Davidoff.....

DELISH!!!!!

Awesome work Tim!

Thanks CM, and again I really appreciate the pic psoting help. I did open an account on ImageShack so I can post more work.

Gramps, regarding the AVO 787:

It features an Ecuadorian-grown wrapper and Dominican-grown binder and filler leaves. This is not your regular AVO, the majority of shich I am not too keen on.

This cigar is too say very different. The cigar has a spicy aroma and is mecium bodied. The taste has a fruit presence and savory. It has a long finish that is lightly spiced. This cigar is powerful as far as flavour goes with a tart taste and is very consistent throughout the entire smoke. It never got sour and construction is first rate and had an excellent burn.

You will either love this cigar or hate it, it is that distinct in flavour. You should at least try one before even considering a box purchase.

I like it a lot.

Man, I have got to stop posting things while typing in the dark. The spelling, gees.

Nice work Tim, you really make me jealous of your photography skills. 🙂

I appreciate your warning about the love it or hate it feelings for this cigar.

Regards,

Great pic!

and a good cigar too

I tried this cigar about 2 or 3 months ago. The shop that gave it to me was very excited about this cigar. It was a natural robusto.

So with excitement I cut and light the cigar. Ok, draws beautifully. Looks perfect with a perfect sheen on the wrapper. Kept smoking it. Flavors? Nothing I can remember, but it left a tingling and bitterness on the back of my throat that was quite unpleasant. Needs a few months in the humi we all agreed.

Is smoking 1 cigar enough to judge an entire line? Probably not, but it's a tough thing to go back to trying something that just plainly sucks when there are so many better tasting, better priced cigars.

And this is of course MHO.
