JFR XT

Big cigars with even bigger flavor, the only thing small about the JFR XT cigar is its price. The original ‘Just For Retailers’ cigars were un-banded affordable sticks that were rumored to have secretive yet legendary origins at the hands of a master of tobacco. Now that we know these new, more robust blends come from the famed farms and rolling tables of Casa Fernandez, the truth is even more tantalizing. Crafted using the company’s homegrown Aganorsa longleaf as filler and binder beneath either a leathery Nicaraguan Corojo or a naturally dark Mexican San Andres wrapper, the thrifty smoker will have a hard time finding a better medium-full strength stogie no matter the cost. Not one but two bands of gold grace the slick, oily heft of the gently box pressed JFR XT, but the brand’s traditional pigtail cap and closed foot are still present. Pulling an easy breath through the Corojo reveals a rich vein of spice beneath crisp cold draw flavors that blossom to earth and black pepper on lighting. A taste like buttery brioche toast can be detected during the later stage, topped by a sprinkle of cinnamon and Demerara brown sugar. Starting with a chocolatey rush, the Maduro generates reams of cool smoke that soon flood the smoker’s palate with oak, French-roast coffee, and dulce de leche. The final moments of either experience are marked by a deeply profound satisfaction. Depending on who you ask, the Illusione Rothchildes and Don Pepin Garcia Serie JJ cigars may or may not have any sort of connection to JFRs but they are some other under-the-radar gems you should consider if you’re wanting more variety in your smoking life. Either way, give the JFR XT a shot and see what so many aficionados have been raving about for years. You’ll be glad you didn’t wait a day longer. Thanks for visiting our online cigar shop!
