"Good and big 50 ring"
These cigars are large and properly humidified will burn over an hour. They have a creamy soft texture with good smoke and some carmel and nut changes. They also tend to be a little chalky and leave a dry mouth. There is no after effect from smoking them as theyre tasty and medium to mild. I think for a toro you have to have time to smoke them. Excellent burn characteristics.

"Great Cigar"
Very Solid Cigar. Mr Uvezian has put his Armenian American artistic and creative touches on a high end cigar. The cigar burns even, the taste is smooth but not too mild. You are constantly engaged to to keep puffing, this will be a go to cigar in your collection.

"A Great Cigar"
I tried an AVO #2 on a whim and couldn't believe how good it was. Great draw, delicious creamy smoke, smooth taste to the finish. I went back to the cigar store and bought more. The #2 is now my favorite cigar!

"I LOVE Avo#2 cigars. It's what I smoke."
This cigar was recommended by the young owner of one of the most famous smoke shops in New York City as what he smokes so I bought one and loved it. Now, it's really all I smoke. It tastes great and is the easiest on my sensitive throat of any cigar I've ever smoked. A true pleasure.

"Very Good"
Perfect cigar. Completely satisfied. No surprises, exactly what you want from a cigar. Good draw, taste, burn... I'm going to buy a box next time. I wish I bought another one.

"Damaged Order but Great Taste"
First things first. I received 3 of these on an auction order, and all three were damaged out of the box. The foot of each cigar was smashed, and wrappers were split open for three quarters of an inch. Adding to this, there was excess glue from the ring smeared all over the wrapper of one. Given these issues, I was hopeful for a successful and enjoyable smoke, but not overly optimistic. The good news is it was smokeable despite the problems, and the flavor was wonderful. This is the definition of a creamy smoke. It burnt a little crooked because of the damaged wrapper, but it had a beautiful draw, a great smoke volume, and a smooth flavor that developed to toasty oak with lots of texture, and just a hint of tingle on the finish. It got a little hot with 2 inches to go, and I ditched it earlier than I had wanted to, but all in all, I was relieved to have gotten as much out of it as I did, especially considering the problems.

"Great cigars, worth the money."
I was turned on to these cigars by the owner of one of the most famous cigar stores in New York City, where these cigars cost A LOT more money! He smoked them and only them on a regular basis and I can see why. They taste great, they leave you feeling healthy with no cough ever, unlike many cigars I've smoked. I love 'em. Thanks Famous for carrying them.

""Mild, but a lot of flavor""
About a 35 to 45 minute smoke for me. Great flavor, yet mild on the finish.

"Not worth the money"
I heard alot of great reviews about this cigar...It was just an everyday average cigar...I thank god i didnot just go off reviews and buy a box of these cigars....They are not worth the over 8 bucks a stick price...Their are cigars on the market that are way better...Not real happy with this cigar...

"IF YOU LIKE A PLUGGED CIGAR---- BAD DRAW"
First couple cigars great then last 5 have been plugged and cannot draw. Have to use a wooden bbq stick so I can smoke them. For what I paid
it was a bad purchase. Will be glad when I have smoked all of them.
