In an exciting development for cigar enthusiasts, Fratello has announced the return of its highly sought-after DMV Maduro Selection, a 12-count sampler that made its debut in late 2020. This second release of the 2024 DMV Maduro Selection features the same four cigars as the original, offering aficionados another chance to experience these premium maduro blends.

The sampler includes three cigars of each of the following blends, all in a 6 x 50 size:

  • Fratello DMV Delaware Maduro
  • Fratello DMV Maryland Maduro
  • Fratello DMV Virginia Maduro
  • Fratello DMV Washington D.C. Maduro

While the blends remain undisclosed, all cigars are produced at the renowned Fábrica de Tabacos Joya de Nicaragua S.A., ensuring the quality that Fratello is known for. This series pays homage to the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) region where Fratello is based and first debuted in 2018 as a regional release for local retailers.

Two notable changes accompany the 2024 re-release. First, the price has increased slightly to $140, up from the $132 MSRP of the 2020 version. Second, only 200 boxes will be produced, a significant reduction from the 600 boxes made available during the original launch. This limited production adds to the exclusivity of the release.

Omar de Frias, CEO of Fratello, expressed his enthusiasm for bringing back this sampler:
“The DMV Series holds a special place in my heart, and for selfish reasons, I wanted to run the Maduro Selection again. With all four blends in one sampler, everyone can enjoy the full experience as much as I do.”

Alongside the DMV Maduro Selection, Fratello is also introducing the third release in its Concealed Carry series—the Speakeasy, which will begin shipping to select retailers on October 3, 2024. This small-batch cigar is inspired by the hidden bars of the Prohibition era, where patrons secretly indulged in cigars and spirits. Packaged in sleek 12-count canisters and priced at $10 per cigar, the 54 x 5 ½ robusto blend remains undisclosed but promises the rich complexity that Fratello fans have come to expect.

With its dual releases, Fratello continues to cater to cigar enthusiasts who appreciate both tradition and innovation, offering a mix of beloved regional favorites and new, exciting blends.
