Avo Syncro Fogata Assortment

The Fogata is the second release in AVO’s Nicaraguan series of cigars, following the AVO Syncro Nicaragua, which was introduced in the summer of 2015. This line extension is offered in four sizes—Short Torpedo (4.5″ x 52, $8.90), Robusto (5″ x 50, $9.90), Toro (6″ x 54, $10.90) and the Special Toro (6″ x 60, $11.90). Unlike the box-pressed Syncro Nicaragua cigars, the AVO Fogata is cylindrical in shape. Each of the vitolas is shipped in highly-colorful, cedar-lined, twenty-count boxes.

The master blender made a major departure in selecting the tobaccos used in the Fogata compared to the type of leaves found in the standard AVO Syncro Nicaragua cigars. The wrapper on the Short Torpedo is an Ecuadorian Habano 2000 Clara, compared to an Ecuadorian Connecticut; while a Mexican San Andrés binder replaces the Dominican binder on the original release. In terms of filler tobacco, the new Fogata consists of a complex blend of stronger Ligero and Visus leaves from areas of the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua, verses the Peruvian Olancho and Nicaraguan Ometepe used in its one-year-older sibling.

The factory declares that the Fogata line of cigars is, “Your calling to go deep into the untamed heart of one of the world’s most celebrated tobacco regions. An opportunity to unearth the vibrant spirit that lurks within.”

This special assortment contains 8 cigars (2 of each vitola) and a pair of Limited Edition Avo Earbuds.
