Fratello Oro Churchill Heads to Leesburg Cigar & Pipe
Leesburg Cigar & Pipe is celebrating its 30th anniversary, which means it is time for a cigar.
That cigar will come from Fratello, a 6 1/4 x 47 Churchill size of the company’s Oro blend. The store’s owner, Bill Johnson, actually helped pick the final Oro blend, which debuted in late 2016. That blend uses an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over a Cameroon binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.
“I am incredibly proud to be part of Leesburg Cigar and Pipe 30th anniversary,” said Omar de Frias, Fratello’s owner, in a press release. “To continuously run and operate a small business for 30 years is no easy feat. Bill is a passionate Connecticut shade cigar smoker and played a huge role in selecting the final Oro blend.”
Pricing is set at $8.75 per cigar and the Oro Churchill is limited to 150 boxes of 20 cigars.
A post on the store’s Facebook page shows the cigar in stock.
