Cigar Review: Avo Heritage

Avo Heritage

People have asked me over and over what I thought was the best new cigar at IPCPR. I reviewed 2 of the top 3 since I got back, but the one that stood out on the floor of the show was the Avo Heritage. Now there are a lot of factors as to why it stood out. Edward Simon the brand manager for Avo was kind enough to take the time to talk to me about the new cigar. I had been walking around for hours and I decided to sit down and enjoy a cigar in its entirety at the lounge they had set up. I smoked, had a drink (water) and listened to some nice Jazz from the musicians they had at the booth. When you factor in all of this the Avo Heritage was the best in show.

At Cigar Expo last weekend Pete Johnson was kind enough to talk with me and Tom from cigarreader.com about a little bit of everything. In Part 1 of our 2 part Interview we discussed the Futures, Monsters & Music. In this 2nd interview Pete gave us a little bit of a scoop about his new cigars that are coming out in 2011.

I’ve called various people in the industry friends and I know some of you think hey you help sell their cigars.. But when all the cigars were handed out at Cigar Expo Pete came to hang with us. We talked a solid 30 minutes before we asked him for an interview and easily another 20 minutes when the camera’s were off. It wasn’t all about cigars either…
