For the first time since 2005, the AVO Classic line will be available in a belicoso size.

Next month, Davidoff of Geneva USA will release the AVO Classic Belicoso, 6 x 48, as a limited edition. It uses the same blend as the regular AVO Classic: an Ecuadorian Connecticut sun grown wrapper over a Dominican binder and Dominican fillers.

The AVO Classic Belicoso will be priced at $12 per cigar and limited to 2,000 boxes of 25 cigars in the U.S. There will be additional boxes offered to global markets, however Davidoff has not stated how many will be made available

“For over 25 years, the AVO Classic has pleased consumers with its consistently smooth yet flavorful blending and flawless construction” said Lana Fraser, director of marketing and retail for Davidoff of Geneva USA, in a press release. “The Belicoso shape further intensifies the flavor delivered in this blend while maintaining the mild, creamy character you’ve come to expect and appreciate from AVO Classic.”
