What does 'XO' in the name mean, like Avo XO Intermezzo? Thanks in advance!

My understanding is that it means a mix or a blend, so different tobaccos blended together in the cigar.

But I've been wrong before.

Always thought it stood for eXtra Old...atleast in booze. Don't know if the leaf in these smokes is aged longer but that would be my guess.

This is off the wall and I need to be careful.
But one of my clients objected to a review saying it was highly sexual.
??
I said that the billows of smoke hit me in the puss.
And later I said the cigar tasted of sweet wood.
He had never heard those terms before.
I Googled the hell out of cigar terminology and couldn't find anything comprehensive.
Somebody should come up with a list of terms used to describe flavors and aromas.
And the winner with the best array of terms gets me to come over to their home and I will sit there and say nothing.
