I think that this cigar deserves mention; The [i:9fa9c78ebb][b:9fa9c78ebb]"Old-Timer"[/b:9fa9c78ebb][/i:9fa9c78ebb], Julio Eiroa really shows that he's got some serious [i:9fa9c78ebb]"chops"[/i:9fa9c78ebb] here.
This cigar starts off with a good [i:9fa9c78ebb][b:9fa9c78ebb]"Bang!"[/b:9fa9c78ebb][/i:9fa9c78ebb][b:9fa9c78ebb][/b:9fa9c78ebb], and simmers down into a really flavorful and sweet full-flavored smoke, which is[b:9fa9c78ebb] in [u:9fa9c78ebb]no way[/u:9fa9c78ebb] [i:9fa9c78ebb]"boring"[/b:9fa9c78ebb][/i:9fa9c78ebb], it's a great reminder that[i:9fa9c78ebb] [b:9fa9c78ebb]power isn't everything[/b:9fa9c78ebb][/i:9fa9c78ebb].
This cigar is no [i:9fa9c78ebb]weakling[/i:9fa9c78ebb] by any means either, it's just a really relaxing, yet stimulating smoke with a great draw and overall construction; this smoke exudes [i:9fa9c78ebb]"experience"[/i:9fa9c78ebb], it's one of those [i:9fa9c78ebb][b:9fa9c78ebb]just-right[/b:9fa9c78ebb][/i:9fa9c78ebb], kind of blends, everything compliments everything else.
This is a perfect cigar for when you want something to smoke that won't [i:9fa9c78ebb]tear your head-off[/i:9fa9c78ebb], yet still have the satisfaction of a wonderfully balanced [i:9fa9c78ebb]strength to flavor[/i:9fa9c78ebb] ratio.
This cigar is definitely a testament to the blender's art, and is [b:9fa9c78ebb]definitely not to be overlooked[/b:9fa9c78ebb]
I'm sometimes all-too guilty of passing-up, and missing-out on many of the really satisfying [i:9fa9c78ebb]medium [/i:9fa9c78ebb] smokes in my quest for strength; you get a judicious confluence of the two with this smoke.
In many ways it reminds me of the intricate style with which Manuel Quesada approaches things, and that's a big compliment if you know my admiration for Mr. Quesada's skills.
[b:9fa9c78ebb]Julio Eiroa is a[i:9fa9c78ebb] seasoned veteran [/i:9fa9c78ebb] of the industry, and he's [i:9fa9c78ebb]right "on top of his game" [/i:9fa9c78ebb]with this one.[/b:9fa9c78ebb]
[b:9fa9c78ebb][i:9fa9c78ebb]Hat's-off[/i:9fa9c78ebb] to Julio. [/b:9fa9c78ebb]
