This is a great cigar with great flavors. But it is not the best from Smoking Jacket, especially Kelner Boutique Factory. The flavor was a nice combination of cream and spice, but I had some burn issues that didn’t let me enjoy the cigars I would like. The Smoking Jacket Henkie, that’s the best of the line and one of the best Dominican Puros you can find.

This LE tasted very similar to the Smoking Jacket Favoritos for me. The LE Gran Toro is a bit more well rounded and milder than the Favoritos.
I thought this LE would smoke better than the Henkie blend as the Gran Toro was higher price. I ended up finding the Henkie blend being more flavorful and enjoyable.

I really enjoyed this blend. I didn’t really do any research before lighting this up, but as soon as I did I suspected I knew the blender, though I had never seen this label before. My suspicions were correct, and I am very excited to see this line expanding. What a fantastic medium bodied cigar, I can’t wait to try the rest of the line.
