At the same time, it preserves the balance and sophistication of the brand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A brand rooted in the legacy of its founder<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded by musician and cigar maker Avo Uvezian, AVO Cigars has established itself. The brand is known for blends that emphasise harmony, craftsmanship and creative expression. Uvezian was convinced that meaningful creations arise from craftsmanship and emotion. This philosophy shaped both his music and his cigars. The brand continues to consistently honour this legacy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"805\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_mood_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_mood_002.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_mood_002-768x618.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_mood_002-15x12.jpg 15w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_mood_002-624x502.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Burn Brighter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new brand identity is reflected in the \u00abBurn Brighter\u00bb campaign. The campaign focuses on creativity, authenticity and shared experiences. These values have always characterised the essence of AVO. The campaign does not redefine the brand, but honours the character of AVO through cinematic imagery and emotional storytelling. It invites aficionados to experience the brand in moments of togetherness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AVO EXPRESIVO - Blend and craftsmanship<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AVO EXPRESIVO, made in Honduras, takes centre stage. The cigar consists of carefully selected tobaccos from Nicaragua and Honduras. A silky Ecuador wrapper refines the composition. Each tobacco undergoes a precisely coordinated fermentation process. This process refines the natural strength and aromatic potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honduran tobaccos are fermented with a focus on balance and structure. Jalapa leaves gradually develop their sweetness and floral characteristics. This preparation preserves the character of each component. At the same time, each component contributes to the harmonious overall composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"714\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_digban_12600x9000px_02_de.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77539\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_digban_12600x9000px_02_de.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_digban_12600x9000px_02_de-768x548.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_digban_12600x9000px_02_de-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/avo_expresivo_digban_12600x9000px_02_de-624x446.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flavour experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The experience begins with earthy depth. Subtle hints of dark chocolate and roasted nuts complete the start. As the flavour progresses, leather comes to the fore. It lends structure and warmth. Gentle creaminess and an elegant woody nuance accompany this section. Towards the end, spice unfolds with clarity and energy. Notes of dried fruit and floral accents complete the finish. The cigar shows presence and development. It remains intense, balanced and harmonious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dimensions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Robusto: RG 52 x 5\u201d \/ \u00d8 2.1 cm x 12.7 cm<br>Churchill: RG 48 x 7\u201d \/ \u00d8 1.9 cm x 17.8 cm<br>Toro: RG 54 x 6\u201d \/ \u00d8 2.2 cm x 15.2 cm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intensity of the EXPRESIVO line: 4 out of 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"764\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20022681_avo_expresivo_church_box20s_de_002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77538\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20022681_avo_expresivo_church_box20s_de_002.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20022681_avo_expresivo_church_box20s_de_002-768x587.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20022681_avo_expresivo_church_box20s_de_002-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/www.zigarren.zone\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/20022681_avo_expresivo_church_box20s_de_002-624x477.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EXPRESIVO in today's cigar world<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>EXPRESIVO picks up on the growing interest of many aficionados in complex blends. These blends place terroir, craftsmanship and fermentation expertise centre stage. The multi-terroir composition creates a cigar with depth and structure. The precisely controlled fermentation specifically supports this profile. At the same time, the typical elegance of AVO is retained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00abEXPRESIVO represents an important step for AVO,\u00bb says Javier Gonz\u00e1lez. He is SVP Head Global Marketing &amp; Innovation at Oettinger Davidoff. \u00abWith this line, we are introducing a cigar with a fuller and more expressive profile. It remains accessible in the sub-premium segment. The line shows the evolution of AVO while maintaining the same craftsmanship and balance.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market launch and availability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>AVO EXPRESIVO will be launched in the USA from 25 June.
