Partagas 1845

About the Cigar

The Ecuadoran Habano wrapper is the perfect shade of brown with a smooth sheen enhanced by the natural oils brought about by the exceptional soil conditions found in this part of the world. a Connecticut Habano binder brings a subtle sweetness to the cigar and holds firm the spicy blend of nicaraguan seco and Dominican ligero.


As the cigar burns, you can expect multi-layers of flavor to spring forth including hints of cinnamon, roasted coffee, with a slight hint of dark chocolate as the cigar finishes. Ultimately the perfect combination of tobaccos gives this cigar an earthy and robust flavor profile that pleases the cigar senses. no bitterness, plus a perfect burn and beautiful gray ash, equals a truly satisfying cigar that you’ll smoke down to the nub.

AVO Trompeta

---

Cigar icon Avo Uvezian is celebrating his 86th birthday with the release of his Limited Edition Anniversary Cigar, "La Trompeta." The "86th Anniversary" marks the eleventh annual limited edition release from AVO Cigars, a tradition the legendary cigar composer started to commemorate his 75th birthday. The new AVO Limited Edition 2012 - 'La Trompeta' is a dedication to the Jazz musician and aficionado on his 86th birthday, a coronation of his lifetime work. Decades of Avo Uvezian's work and passion are united in every single cigar, as well as tradition and established knowledge of the tobacco master, Hendrik Kelner.
Through the subtle balanced Ligero tobaccos and the add-on of Peruvian Seco from exquisite tobacco fields, this special vintage is a medium to full- bodied cigar with complex notes in the aftertaste. The beautiful, slightly oily Ecuador Special Sun Grown wrapper "Seleccion 702" awards this cigar an indescribable spicy and balanced, multi-faceted experience. This cigar converts our thoughts in dreams.
A dark brown lacquered box with rounded edges, covered with a stylish black print of the "Avo silhouette" as a cigar aficionado. Avo, as the musician with his trumpet, is radiantly printed with gold foil in the background.
"La Trompeta" presents itself in a majestic and charming cigar format - a brilliant 6 ½ x 54 "Torpedo" - including the addition of a special feature to pay homage to the jazz trumpet, three small circular cigar leaf cut-outs are placed on the wrapper leaf to resemble "trumpet keys" - limited to 100,000 cigars worldwide with 50,000 cigars for the US market.

 The Rating by Cigar Aficionado
     Alan Rubin has come a long way in 16 years. He first joined the cigar business in 1996, selling a cigar brand designed for sale at golf courses. It didn't succeed. Rubin had left the family fastener business for some thing he enjoyed: selling cigars. He named his young company after his two sons, Alec and Bradley, but struggled to find his way. Deep in debt, he realized he had to be in the premium cigar stores. He gained a measure of popularity by selling cigars in bundles. Trying to find an edge in an industry that was going through difficult times, he showed signs of innovation early with the release of a cigar with a triangular shape, a first for the cigar business. In 2007 he finally hit his stride with the creation of Alec Bradley Tempus, a heavy-bodied cigar that brought his best ratings to date as well as industry buzz. Two years later, he created a blend called Alec Bradley Prensado. Rubin had smoked a very dark wrapper leaf grown in a region of southern Honduras called Trojes and decided to build a cigar brand around it, using Central American tobacco exclusively. And what a cigar he made. The brand hit the market in 2009 and was acclaimed from the very beginning. In a vertical brand tasting in Cigar Insider of the five original sizes, each scored 91 points or more and earned our accolade of Humidor Selection.
The Alec Bradley Prensado Churchill, made at the superb Raices Cubanas factory in Danli, Honduras, is as gorgeous cigar as you'll ever see, with a picture-perfect head and a stunning wrapper. But it is the flavor that makes it a classic smoke. The Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos come together to create leather, chocolate and spice notes. and along, lush finish.
