Fratello Cigars founder Omar de Frias expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, “I am ecstatic to join Keith and Lyndsay in this journey.

Lyndsay France echoed this excitement, saying, “We’re thrilled to bring Fratello Cigars to the UK market. Fratello’s distinctive style offers something truly exciting for our specialist retailers. We’re proud to partner with a brand that shares our passion for quality, relationships, and innovation in the premium cigar space.”

With this partnership, UK cigar lovers will gain access to Fratello’s celebrated blends, known for their bold yet balanced profiles. The move further strengthens Fratello’s presence across the globe, adding the UK to an extensive list of international markets.
