Why AVO Syncro Ritmo Cigars are one of the Best Cigar releases of the Summer

There is a reason that the third release in a trilogy is undoubtedly the most remembered. The Lord of the Rings, Back to the Future Trilogy, The Bourne Trilogy – the list goes on. It doesn’t apply just to books and movies. The same goes without saying for the Avo Syncro line of cigars too. With the release of the Avo Syncro South American Ritmo, the Avo Syncro series has stepped up another level. The third in the series, this exquisite cigar stands a class apart as it is the first to feature tobacco from seven different nations to give the perfect diverse blend.

A Walk Down the Memory lane

For any cigar aficionado, the word Avo Syncro might bring fond memories. Avo Uvezian, the man behind the Avo Syncro series, left quite a mark in the hearts of many not just as a cigar legend, but also as a jazz pianist. The late cigar celebrity had a charming personality which one would always remember. His passion for versatile experiences resulted in him bringing to the people a collection of world famous cigars in the mid 1990’s. But how did this man, with a musical history of seven decades, make the Avo label dream a reality?

The story behind the origins of the Avo cigar line is quite fascinating. Before Avo Uvezian became synonymous with Avo Cigars, he was a renowned musician. One night when he was out for dinner with his friend, he was taken aback by the amount of money he had to shell out for a Cuban cigar. How utterly preposterous was it that you cannot enjoy a fine cigar without emptying your pockets out, right? That’s exactly what was running on Avo Uvezian’s mind too. So what did he do? He decided to take matters into his own hands. Taking the help of esteemed cigar craftsman Hendrik Kelner, he decided to introduce his personal line of fine cigars to the world. And behold, the cigars made from the finest tobacco were born. Over time, Davidoff bought the production and distribution rights of the Avo series. And now, people around the globe consume the Avo cigars as an everyday smoke and more so, as luxury smokes.

Now, the Avo Syncro Ritmo has quickly joined the ranks of great cigars that climbed the ladder of fame in a short span considering it was introduced in May 22, 2017. The fervor around this cigar is justified and here is why.

What makes Avo Syncro Ritmo special?

This well crafted, medium to full strength cigar, has been unveiled as the most aromatically intense of the Avo Syncro series. Ritmo stands for rhythm in Spanish, and it offers you a completely new experience both in aroma and flavor. It delivers to you a high quality premium smoke without compromise. You will know that it is the perfect cigar by how well balanced it is. But of course, you do not expect anything less from Avo. 

Ever wanted to know how a mix of different cultures feels like? Well then, the Avo Syncro Ritmo is your answer. This is where this new cigar differs from the first two cigars from the Avo Syncro line. The other two cigars in the Avo Syncro line feature a range of tobaccos from different regions within Nicaragua. 

Avo Syncro Ritmo contains tobacco from seven different countries! The first thing you will notice is the flawless, visually striking appearance – you may find yourself wondering if this is what perfection looks like. It must be. It is encased in an oily Ecuadorian wrapper. 

Almost instantly, you get an exotic rugged aroma that is a reflection of the different cultures encompassed. Avo Syncro Ritmo comes with a Mexican binder swaddling a rare collection of premium filler tobaccos from Peru, Nicaragua, Brazil, Dominican Republic, and Honduras. 

The Flavor Profile

The cigar begins with the flavor of an intense fusion of black pepper and roasted nuts that prepare you for something better as you take the next drag. You immediately notice that it has an excellent draw and that it burns evenly. As you approach the midway point, your palate will experience an unrivaled mix of spiciness and earthy flavors from the filler tobaccos combined with the sweet chili tang from the Mexican binder. Sadly, all good things have to come to an end. The Avo Syncro Ritmo makes up for it by not compromising on the end note. As you approach the nub, a perfect blend of remnant flavors of black coffee and cocoa prevail. The spiciness still remains subtly, even though the cocoa and coffee notes have now taken over.

In the end, a rich creaminess emerges, paving way for a finish that is smooth and perfect.
