Still haven’t tried AVOs.

Nice smoke. Jazz musician Avo Uvezian began the company & later sold out to Davidoff. Avo died in 2017.

My purchase is AVO Classic robustos, a medium bodied cigar.
Edit: Just checked my paperwork, and the shipped me AVO classic.

I believe Avo started his little cigar business in Nashville, did he not?

Davidoff began the country blends for the AVO brand, yes?
Edit: Again, the sun exposure must have affected me. CAO, not AVO has the country offerings.

Unaware of a Nashville connection. Avo owned a restaurant in Puerto Rico and smoked his own blend as he played piano . That's all I know.

I was mistaken. CAO started in Nash Vagas.

Edit: Must be the sun got to me when I rode my bike to the post office.

Finding out new tidbits every day. Just know I never credit any of you.

Recall when CAO moved HQ to Nashville, but are they still here? Not a big CAO fan anyhow. Up in smoke, I guess.

The CAO Brazilia in the goi size is a top selection for me.

Second still life: sleeping cat below cigar

 

[Tin Man]

The old cat no longer cares if I come onto the porch to smoke a cigar while she’s napping.

Wrapping up the weekend with a nice Cameroon. AJ Fernandez New World. Splendidly quiet evening, literally no sound other than the fountains. Incredible zen.

Along with some Leisure Time Lager.

Third still life: cigar above cat ignoring human

 

[butchna]

Enjoyed my first Foundation (David) AND perfecto, yesterday. Excellent on both! Also have a Tabernacle Churchill waiting for my constitution to recover (bad reaction to Knob Creek Friday night). Loved my Father’s Day.

Weeded the veggie garden and put down wheat straw mulch. The weeds had established turf in one section, so this wasn’t a quick and easy task. For my labors, I am rewarding myself with lemon tea fizzy water and an Avo classic.

My girls got me the glass set and some round rock molds for Father’s Day. Never had this stick before, but the EC Barrel Proof has some heat.

The Tatuaje Pork Tenderloin popped up available for a nanosecond on SmallBatch. Snagged a five pack and will sample one of those this weekend.

What’s your report on the cigar?

What’s your report on the cigar?

It was good, but either it was a little dry or I did a poor job lighting it because the smoking end got uuuugly for a bit, uneven burn, etc. had to burn it off but before and after that, it was quite enjoyable. Easy draw and lots of smoke.

 

[Tin Man]

Too wet to mow the grass this morning, so…

 

[Nkyvolfan]

Just lit a double robusto. Kicking off a gorgeous first night of summer!
