That one is annoying because there are a couple of common (mis)pronunciations, but that is how Dion himself pronounces it, so I'll take his lead.jgibv:

H is silent in spanish. The J replaces it. Cohiba Behike (ko-ee-ba, Be-ee-ke). Joya (hoya) Hoya (Oh -yah).

What about Avo Uvezian? A - voe or Ah - voe? And when we're talking the cigars, do we spell it out "A-V-O Classic" or do you pronounce his first name?

Since people like to "hear" the pronunciation, I thought a video would be better.Bob Luken:What about Avo Uvezian? A - voe or Ah - voe? And when we're talking the cigars, do we spell it out "A-V-O Classic" or do you pronounce his first name? -

In spanish typically two vowels are not combined as they are in english, so they are annunciated separately, like the u and the e here. The u makes an "oo" sound as in boo and the e makes an "ay" sound as in "hay." You can hear Josh do this on the video the first time the name is spoken, though it is quick and nearly combined. My pronunciation, while correct, would probably sound more like an 8th grade spanish student fumbling with the language rather than being smooth like Josh here, but still, those sounds are both there. His smoother version comes out more "Bway-so" where the "oo" sound is truncated.kuzi16:

If you are talking about the Tat Cojonu's then they are pronounced Koh-ho-new and is Spanish slang termeaning "ballsy". No joke since I know it sounds like one lol but really really that is how it's pronounced and what it meanscurtpick:I know. I have fits with conojos. Love them. -

Vee- ah -heydeejmemixx:So I am sure many of you have sat looking at a cigar band and said to your self...how the FK do you say this word???? Is it Vag?? is it Veeeehaaaaaahaaayyyyy??? I ddunnnnooo???
I am sure there are smarter people on this forum that can help you pronunciate that word correctly so you dont feel like such a tool..... so help your brothers out and tell them how to say dem words correctly!
Tat -ooh - ah - heyddubridge:I was wondering how you say tatuaje. Tattooeee???
Cree - oh -yoToombes:What about "criollo"? Cree-yo-yo, maybe? Or cree-lo-ho? I give up...
yes. thats exactly right.ddubridge:what CAO. I think you pronounce it COW.
I respectfully disagree, Matt. CAO are the initials of Cano Ozgener who started the company. Cano (pronounced 'Johno') is (was?) an Armenian Turk. I've seen his full name in print and his middle initial is A. So the correct pronunciation would be C.A.O. just as the correct pronunciation of my initials would be J.L.M. Capisce?? I'm sure if someone wanted to look it up, they'd find that Mr. Ozgener's middle name starts with an A. ..... :-/) -
In fact, I went ahead and did some looking. Here's a copy of an excerpt of a Wikipedia article regarding Perdomo cigars:
In April 1999, Perdomo was approached by Cano A. Ozgener, head of C.A.O. International, with a proposition to produce its C.A.O. L'Anniversaire line, patterned after the legendary Partagas Serie D No. 4.Ozgener was losing his manufacturing plant, Tabacalera Tambor of Costa Rica, manufacturer of the Bahia brand and needed a new partner to keep his popular product in production and Perdomo was chosen over other suitors.
A mutually beneficial partnership resulted which aided in the expansion of the Perdomo operation.
At least, this establishes Mr. Ozgener's middle initial as 'A'...... -
