AVO Cigars announced the latest limited-edition release, the AVO Seasons Limited Edition Series 2023. AVO releases one cigar per season over the course of the year 2023. Each unique Diadema size captures the spirit of the respective time of year.
“This special release has been carefully created by our Master Blenders who have worked with tobaccos across multi-faceted origins to craft the perfect seasonal blends. Tobaccos from each cigar can be found from diverse growing regions such as Ecuador and the Dominican Republic, with tobacco aged for up to 14 years,” says Edward Simon, CMO at Oettinger Davidoff. “We encourage our aficionados to enjoy each cigar while experiencing a moment unique to each season: walking through a garden in spring, watching the setting sun on a summer evening, feeling the air turn crisp as autumn leaves fall, and sitting by a crackling fire in winter.”
Four releases to accompany aficionados throughout the year
All four editions are presented in boxes of ten cigars each. The packaging design reflects each season individually with respective icons, varnished patterns, season-typical colors, and graphics. As an ensemble, the boxes illustrate the flow of one whole year with visually connected patterns and themes. The cigars’ respective blends were created from different tobaccos to capture each season with a fitting taste experience. All blends come in a 50 x 168mm (6 5/8″) Diadema size.
The limited-edition cigar dedicated to the first months of the year kicks off the series. The Dominican San Vicente Seco and the Hybrid 192 Visus tobaccos, which were patiently aged in the Dominican Republic, with one of its special filler tobaccos having aged for 14 years make up the binder and filler. The light-colored Ecuador Corojo wrapper.
The cigar reflecting summer comes in a Ecuadorian Corojo wrapper over a Mexican binder and Dominican fillers. The blend for autumn features a Mexican San Andres wrapper over Dominican binder and filler. Lastly the winter edition is made up of an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over Dominican fillers.
The first release of the AVO Seasons Limited Edition Series 2023 will be launched in March 2023. Globally, there will be 4000 boxes available per edition and the retail price is set at $18 per cigar for each release.
