I have to admit that the Short Robusto is one of my favorite go to cigars. With that said, you need to know that when this brand style was launched in 2015, not only did it get 90+ ratings across the board, it was also awarded a Top 25 status. This is not just any Avo! Yes, it’s well made, draws perfectly and burns evenly. But this sold medium bodied stick is like a flavor freight train! Unlike like it’s Dominican purebred Classic counterpart, the Synchro’s complex blend is a totally different experience that brought countless new smokers in the Avo fold!

Avo is a top seller throughout the world. If you’re a fan of medium-full bodied cigars I highly recommend a five pack of short torpedos. This very unique size is rarely found and produces an immediate satisfying robust taste. When you don’t have the time to have a large cigar, this little guy is a pleasure to enjoy!

This brand started in Cuba in 1940 and is still being made there. When Cigar Giant Altadis acquired the name for the US, production went from the Dominican Republic to Honduras where it remains. This 90 rated stick is a staple at just about every worthwhile tobacconist in the country. This cigar’s complex blend produces a rich, full flavor with thick plumes of smoke. It’s smooth, slow burning and very strong. Buckle up!

When Altadis, the cigar giant thats brings us Monte Cristo, Romeo and Upmann….to name a few decided to create a value priced entry they didn’t take any shortcuts. These handmade sticks use Dominican tobaccos across the board with a bit of Honduran binder giving it a mild to medium bodied taste that’s smooth and mellow. The Connecticut Shade wrapper is a rarity in the budget friendly category. Enjoy!
