Fratello Bianco is Fratello Cigars’ first maduro blend.
Quite simply put, the Bianco is a fantastic example of a near perfect maduro cigar. Its flavor notes of cocoa, cream, and earth come bursting through this cigar due to its gorgeous dark Mexican wrapper. With attention to detail, it also sports a rich Dominican binder with filler tobaccos from USA/Nicaragua/Peru adding to its complexity.
Without doubt, Bianco is a hit. This medium to full bodied dark beauty has the critics united. With Blind Man’s Puff @91, Cigar Coop @91 and Cigar Authority @ 91, it’s safe to say this Fratello is another winner!

Alec Bradley ABCO Bundle is a long filler premium cigar with a very affordable price tag.
It’s important to note that Alec Bradley is the distributor for this “mystery” edition of economical cigars. What we do know is ABCO is a high quality product even if the factory making them is a secret. After all, we all can agree that Alan Rubin knows a good cigar. And these are good enough for him to sell them. With attention to detail, these cigars are a true bargain. The ABCO Miami offers a medium to full-bodied, rich tasting cigar in the Alec Bradley portfolio at an everyday price!

Montecristo Espada Oscuro is one of the very special cigars by this iconic company.
With attention to detail, the Espada Oscuro is another collaboration with the Plasencia family. As with the original, this blend is pure Nicaraguan. The big difference here is this edition uses a Habano Rosado Oscuro wrapper instead of the original blend’s Nicaraguan Habano. What’s more important is the filler and binder tobacco is extremely rare. To say the least, this is a long burning medium to full bodied smoke with a very nice, flavorful progression from start to finish.
With this in mind, Cigar Coop rates it at 90 and Blind Man’s Puff gives it a very respectable 93! So if you’re a Montecristo fan and liked the first Espada, this Oscuro is a must try for sure!
Country of Origin: Nicaragua
Wrapper: Habano Rosado Oscuro
