Avo Uvezian

AVO Cigars is a premium cigar brand founded in 1988 by Armenian-American musician and composer Avo Uvezian in collaboration with Dominican master blender Hendrik Kelner.
The brand developed around a philosophy of balance, consistency and tobacco craftsmanship, combining Uvezian's appreciation of fine cigars with Kelner's extensive experience in Dominican cigar production.
AVO cigars are principally associated with the Dominican Republic, using carefully selected tobacco blends to create a range of strengths and flavour profiles.
The AVO Classic collection is particularly recognised for its mild-to-medium character, with creamy tobacco flavours, cedar, toasted nuts and subtle spice. The range includes traditional cigar formats alongside smaller options such as the AVO Classic Puritos.
Other collections within the AVO portfolio explore different wrapper varieties, tobacco origins and blending techniques, providing options across a broader spectrum of body and flavour intensity.
AVO became part of the Davidoff group in 1995, strengthening its international distribution while maintaining the brand's distinctive identity and connection to Dominican cigar making.
