The nicotine content is high, but won't knock out an experienced cigar connoisseur. However, beginners should keep their hands off it. The strength from the second half of almost 4\/5 says it all. The strength was a surprise for me. I personally like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was also surprised by the wrapper: it is rustic and has dominant veins. I looked at the 20 cigars: All the wrapper leaves are like this. That doesn't change the flavour. If you like a more rustic look, you will of course like this cigar. Personally, it doesn't bother me much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Above I mentioned the acclimatisation period of 8 weeks. Why so long? On arrival, all three of the specimens I tested (I took them all from the box of 20) tasted a little too bitter and sour. This is not a fault of the cigar - this point is very important. Try a few immediately after purchase and let the others rest for about 8 weeks. I am sure that there will be an improvement. To find out why this can happen from time to time with cigars, please click on the first link below under \u201eResources on the topic\u201c.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The format is a double corona. I really like that. The format is elegant, timeless, classic. With a length of almost 20 cm and a ring gauge of 50, it doesn't look imposing, but very elegant. Congratulations on the format - really great!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The rolling quality is good as standard and it smoulders normally. Every now and then there is some wave burn. It usually corrects itself. From time to time the flame has to intervene to correct it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fans of AVO's limited editions should definitely buy this. It's best to buy two or three boxes in stock and store them away. The crate has a high-quality finish and a felt base (outside, not inside) \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A powerful Avo Improvisation 2021 - great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Avo-Improvisation-2021-5.jpg\" alt=\"Avo Improvisation 2021\" class=\"wp-image-46046\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Avo-Improvisation-2021-5.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Avo-Improvisation-2021-5-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Avo-Improvisation-2021-5-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Avo-Improvisation-2021-5-624x468.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption>It's strong, the Avo Improvisation 2021. 3\/5 strength, maybe 4\/5 in the final.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources on the topic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Helpful cigar tips: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/hilfreiche-zigarren-tipps\/\">From \u201eretronasal\u201c and \u201eumami\u201c to the difference in cigar storage between Non Cuba and Cuba<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/avo-improvisation-2021-tasting\/(%C3%B6ffnet%20in%20neuem%20Tab)\">The presentation of the Avo Improvisation 2021<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=zigarren+kaufen\" class=\"rank-math-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buy even more other cigars, Google search<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/tasting-notizen-tool-zum-herunterladen\/\">Download CigarZone Tasting Notes PDF and rate your cigars professionally &gt;<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Avo Improvisation 2021 Limited Edition in the test.
