AVO Caribe: Review

Earlier this summer Davidoff cigars released its newest line extension under its AVO Cigar brand. The cigar in question is the AVO Caribe and its part of AVO’s popular synchro lineup. The synchro line includes Nicarargua, Fogats, Ritmo and now Caribe. The Syncro line was created to highlight unique tobaccos from specific regions. The Caribe; as hinted by its name highlights tobaccos from the Caribbean. Blended with “natural distribution” meaning that each size in the line was blended to maintain the same ratio of tobacco primings. The tobaccos include. a Dominican wrapper, then an Ecuadorian binder, and finishes with fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. The cigar is offered in three popular sizes a Robusto, toro and 6x60 Gordo size; all in 20 count boxes. The cigar its self has become quickly one of my favorites at its price point. The cigar comes right out of the gate swinging offering a ton of rich flavors including earth , coffee and leather underlined by a unique sweetness. To balance out that sweetness the cigars offers some spice; especially present on the retrohale. As the cigar progresses all of these flavors remain but intestify. The cigar also overs a very unique floral character and an almost raisiny sweetness. The cigar finishes at a solid medium plus in terms of both strength and body.
