Avo is blended by H. Kelner who also does Davidoff, so I'd check out their budget blends - 3x3, 4x4, and Private Stock. I don't get the "being hesitant to buy something with a weird name" - you're cutting yourself off from a lot of great smokes, depending on what you consider "weird." Since you seem to like mild cigars, Verdadero for example is excellent, cheap, and totally underrated.
I love the 3x3 & 4x4 for a nice laid back smoke....
Like my father before me, I will work the land,
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.
