Julio Eiroa's 85 Aniversario Reserva began as an 80th-anniversary project and ran years late because of the leaf. Pinareño is the rare Cuban seed Tino Agurdin carried to Honduras in 1960, a low-yield, disease-prone variety that most growers, the Eiroas included, later traded for hardier corojo. This cigar goes back to it. Production is capped at four boxes per vitola each month, and the yellow box (the Eiroa family's favorite color) carries a drawing of Julio's Buick.
