Fratello Ships Camo Bundles
Fratello Cigars has begun shipping its Camo bundles, a trio of new value-priced cigars.
“As crazy as the last few months have been for us all, it’s good to be able to get back to a little normalcy…and to share three great cigars at great price points for our retail partners and supporters,” said Omar de Frias, founder of Fratello Cigars, via a press release.
The company isn’t disclosing the blend details other than a bit about the wrapper. The blue-banded Fratello Blu uses a maduro leaf, the red-banded Fratello Rosso uses a habano leaf, and the green-banded Fratello Verde uses a Connecticut leaf. Each blend is offered in two sizes, a 5 x 50 robusto and a 6 x 50 toro, with pricing starting at $3.25 per cigar and $49 per bundle, before taxes.
The Fratello Camo Bundles are produced at the La Aurora Cigar Factory in Santiago, Dominican Republic.
The bundles debuted at the 2020 Tobacco Plus Expo (TPE) in January and had been slated to ship in March, but the COVID-19 pandemic delayed their arrival due to factory closures, stay at home orders and reduced shipping options. It is the company’s first offerings in the bundle segment of the cigar market.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury, the G-League's Valley Suns, and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
