The Fratello Oro is not only is the company’s first Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade cigar, but it’s the first cigar the company is making in Omar de Frias’ native country, the Dominican Republic. To produce his cigars De Frias is partnering with the La Aurora factory. Fratello’s other lines are produced at Joya de Nicaragua in Esteli, Nicaragua.

The blend of the Fratello Oro consists of an Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper, a Cameroon binder, and a combination of Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers. The Oro will be available in six sizes: Corona (5 1/2 x 47), Robusto (5 x 50), Robusto Extra (4 x 58), Toro (6 1/4 x 54), Gordo (6 x 60), and the company’s signature box-press torpedo size, the Boxer (6 1/4 x 52). Each of the sizes are packaged in 20 count boxes.
