The Fratello Concealed Carry Detroit River marks the second chapter in Fratello’s exclusive small-batch Concealed Carry program, paying tribute to one of the most iconic moments of America’s Prohibition era. Released in July 2024 and limited to only 1,000 canisters of 12 cigars, this edition embodies the spirit of defiance and resilience that defined the Detroit River’s notorious history as a smuggling route.

Each 54 x 5 ½ Robusto comes in striking packaging adorned with imagery of law enforcement dumping confiscated alcohol into the Detroit River—a symbol of both the crackdown on bootlegging and the unyielding determination of those who defied the 18th Amendment.

The blend, like all Concealed Carry releases, remains undisclosed to maintain intrigue, but it delivers a beautifully balanced medium-bodied profile. The smoking experience begins with sweet and floral notes, transitions into rich flavors of dark fruit and toffee, and culminates in a long, satisfying finish. True to its theme, the Detroit River captures both refinement and rebellion in every draw.
