AVO Expresivo Toro

The AVO Expresivo Toro combines a generous Toro size with a characterful multi-terroir blend from Honduras and Nicaragua. A silky wrapper from Ecuador rounds off the composition, adding creaminess and an elegant smoothness to the overall full-bodied profile. The cigar opens with earthy and roasted notes, then develops hints of leather, wood and mineral accents, and finishes with spices, fruit and floral nuances. This creates a varied smoking experience for connoisseurs who prefer stronger flavours with balance, structure and a subtle natural sweetness.

Tobaccos from three distinctive regions

The blend combines selected tobaccos from the Jamastrán Valley in Honduras and the Nicaraguan regions of Jalapa and Condega. The Jamastrán tobacco contributes earthy depth, spice and a solid aromatic foundation. Jalapa complements the blend with floral finesse and a subtle sweetness, whilst Condega provides roasted notes and additional structure. The Honduran binder unites these different characters, whilst the Ecuadorian wrapper lends the smoke a creamy texture and a smooth overall impression.

A multi-layered flavour with a clear progression

In the first third, earthy notes, roasted nuts and dark chocolate take centre stage. The flavours are full-bodied, yet remain controlled and pleasantly balanced. As the cigar progresses, leather and wood come to the fore more distinctly. A subtle mineral note adds interest and underlines the blend’s distinctive character. Towards the end, the spiciness intensifies and blends with dried fruit and floral undertones. A subtle, natural sweetness accompanies the cigar for much of the smoking experience, forming a harmonious counterpoint to the robust earthy and roasted flavours.

Generous Toro size for prolonged enjoyment

With a length of 152 millimetres and a ring gauge of 54, the Toro format offers the various tobaccos ample space for a slow and distinctly recognisable development. The wide diameter promotes a cool smoke, a rich smoke volume and a balanced unfolding of the individual layers of flavour. The smoking time is approximately 60 to 80 minutes. With an intensity of 4 on a scale of 5, the cigar is aimed primarily at experienced connoisseurs or lovers of medium-bodied to full-bodied blends. Smoking it slowly brings out its creamy, woody and floral nuances to particular effect.
