No signature but the Heritage is :dr

The Signature PC is my favorite of all the Avo lines. Great mild little smoke, albeit pricey. Imagine a milder, grassier Avo Classic.

Milder? Grassier? That doesn't endear them to me.

Here is the statement from CI which attracted me to even consider them, which is a bit odd - when compared with your assessment.

"This rare and unique blend of tobaccos have produced a cigar that provides a rich aroma and full bodied flavor while preserving the perfectly balanced taste that have become the Avo trademark. It is the boldest, most full-bodied AVO series to date. The AVO Signature is not for the novice smoker - it takes an experienced palate to appreciate this flavorful and intense cigar."

It sounds like they're trying to describe the Heritage. The Signature is nowhere even close to full-bodied. They're a great breakfast smoke to help ease you into the day with a cup of coffee(or actually, tea may go really well with them, just thought of that). Lots of flavor, but very grassy compared to every other Avo out there.

Actually, here's the description for the Heritage. (By the way, I have had these and love them.)

These classy sticks use filler from Avo Uvezian’s own plantation in the Dominican Republic and a double fermented Ecuadoran wrapper grown from Cuban seed. The jazz pianist turned cigar purveyor and Hendrik Kelner, the genius behind the designs of our planet’s best loved contemporary cigars, got together and they came up with this elegant smoke to further elevate this brand name. "I wanted to add a line that caters to the seasoned cigar enthusiast who demands a complex, full-bodied smoking experience," said Avo Uvezian, "and this is exactly what Henke Kelner and I created." A rich spiciness swarms the palate with the first puff. Any sweetness is experienced as background notes, contrapuntal to the spicy overtones that endure and dominate to the end. If your humidor doesn’t have some AVO cigars in it, you might want to reach out to us!
