The exquisite AVO cigars are made from selected tobaccos, kept in store until they are fully mature. These contain a large proportion of a specially fermented, matured Piloto Cubano tobacco from the Dominican Republic.

The binder leaf is best Olor tobacco from the Villa Gonzalez region, and a Connecticut Shade wrapper leaf provides the perfect finishing touch to the AVO cigars.

AVO cigars come from the Cibao valley, the best area for the cultivation of tobacco plants in the Dominican Republic.

The slightly sandy, fertile soils and the ideal mild climate with the right amount of rain combine perfectly to allow the solanum species to flourish in the valley situated between the Cordillera Central and the Cordillera Septentrional.
