The Syncro name refers to synchronizing tobaccos from several regions in a single blend. Fogata, Spanish for \"bonfire,\" followed as an extension: halfwheel calls its sizes nearly identical to the original apart from being round, and Davidoff described the idea as matching the more intense Nicaraguan leaf with softer, creamier Dominican tobacco. Avo Uvezian said the name came from bonfires, a favorite setting of his for time with close friends. For the line's tenth anniversary in 2025, Davidoff released a box-pressed 6⅝ x 50 AVO Syncro 10th Anniversary Limited Edition, which we don't stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAVO Syncro Nicaragua sizes and prices\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrices as listed in October 2026; each product page shows the current price and live stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCigar\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSingle\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e5-pack\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBox\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePer cigar in the box\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/avo-syncro-nicaragua-toro\"\u003eSyncro Nicaragua Toro\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 x 54, box-pressed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$14.99\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$67.95\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20, $251.80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$12.59\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/avo-syncro-nicaragua-special-toro-box-pressed\"\u003eSyncro Nicaragua Special Toro\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 x 60, box-pressed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$14.99\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$67.95\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20, $251.80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$12.59\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/avo-syncro-nicaragua-fogata-special-toro\"\u003eSyncro Nicaragua Fogata Special Toro\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 x 60, round\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$13.99\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$63.95\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20, $235.80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e$11.79\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery box above is priced over $125, so it ships free.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRatings and tasting notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/avo-syncro-nicaragua-toro\"\u003eToro, 6 x 54\u003c\/a\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 93 points and No. 16 on Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 for 2015, rated medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/avo-syncro-nicaragua-special-toro-box-pressed\"\u003eSpecial Toro, 6 x 60\u003c\/a\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e the largest cigar in the Syncro Nicaragua line, per Davidoff.
