A superior smoke to many of the Cubans a person could have this year, though I won't go into each one. Absolutely amazing. Unluckily, there are precious few still on the market. Luckily, there are about nine more in my humidor. Number one with a bullet! I can't imagine this effort will be outdone by Avo's 80th birthday cigar. I don't know if it is even possible; yet, I am eager to see what they come up with. If the folks at Davey dorf know anything (which they do) they should find a way to duplicate this one. And at $12.50 a stick, it is #2 in affordability behind the impossible to find 8-5-8 Sun Grown.
Should auld acquaintance, and all that...

Those Avo LE's are sure right on. A great NC cigar. I've enjoyed all 5 I've smoked so far, even bought a box.
I've had some Cuban snoobs turn up their nose at this cigar (it being non-cuban & all), they just don't know what they're missing.
Happy Holidays & Welcome to Club Stogie.
