  1. Pics: http://imgur.com/a/VjCDs Cigar: Avo Uvezian Maduro (bought in 2009 from The Kensington Tobacconist Reading, PA) Vitola: Belicoso Pairing: Water Pre-light Inspection: Once taken out of its stained cellophane, this cigar was glistening in the sunlight. I hope it came out in the pictures. The sheen was beautiful, especially towards the head of the cigar. One small sun spot on the wrapper, and one medium sized vein pushing up under the wrapper were its only cosmetic flaws. There was also a slight variation in maduro color from the foot to head. The construction is very good, with no soft or hard patches on feeling the cigar, a very even packing of tobacco. Smell: The aroma coming of the wrapper is dominated by the smell of manure and puppy smell. You know what I’m talking about dog lovers. The foot of the cigar has much less manure and smells more of sweet earth and chocolate. Draw: There is a perfect amount of resistance. The cold draw has flavors of subtle manure, creamy, sweet chocolate, and earth. 1/3: The cigar starts off with a non-aggressive spiciness, predominantly cinnamon. As the cigar cools from lighting, a rich chocolate flavor comes out in force. The aftertaste has an interesting green tea like tannic sensation. It is not a bad thing at all. It makes me want to take another puff to refresh my palate with chocolate. 2/3: As we move into the second-third the flavors have progressed to become more intense and rich. There is a distinct creaminess to the smoke with a lingering sweetness. The aftertaste reminds me of sweetened condensed milk. This is a delicious smoke. 3/3: I smoked the 2/3 too quickly, resulting in the beginning of the 3/3 being very hot and aggressive. After I let the cigar cool down and puffed with some caution, I found the flavors to have changed a little. Spiciness now dominates the flavor profile, black pepper and cinnamon. The sweetness and creaminess have decreased as well. Chocolate is still present in the aftertaste, and the cigar ends with the last few puffs reminding me of grilled meat. Total smoking time: 2 hours This was a favorite cigar of mine early in my smoking life, and I’m glad I put a few of these away for a few years. The 2/3 of this cigar was absolutely amazing and if the 3/3 was exactly like the 2nd, I would be giving this cigar a much higher rating. Overall, I would rate the experience as 91/100. Happy smoking!
