Concealed Carry II Returns with “Fidel,” Launching a Six-Part Cuban Embargo-Themed Cigar Collection

The second edition of Concealed Carry opens a six-part historical journey with “Fidel,” a limited-release cigar available through select Fratello retailers nationwide.

VIRGINIA, USA — October 13, 2026 — Concealed Carry is back with its second edition, introducing Concealed Carry II and its first release, “Fidel.” This six-part cigar collection takes a unique approach to storytelling, combining classified dossier-inspired packaging, undisclosed blends, and historical themes connected to the 1962 U.S. trade embargo on Cuba.

Designed as a series of classified files, each release will explore a different figure, event, or archival theme tied to the era. Together, the six installments will tell a broader story about the Cuban embargo and its lasting influence on the cigar industry.

“Fidel” Opens the Classified Files

The first release, “Fidel,” establishes the historical framework and visual identity for the new collection. The presentation features military-green boxes, vintage-inspired typography, a red star emblem, and custom cigar bands bearing the name FIDEL.

The design reinforces the collection’s classified dossier concept, inviting cigar enthusiasts and collectors to explore the history behind each release as the series unfolds.

A Blend Shrouded in Mystery

Staying true to the Concealed Carry identity, the brand is keeping key production details under wraps. Factory locations, blend components, and exact tobacco origins remain undisclosed, encouraging smokers to focus on the cigar experience rather than preconceived expectations about its composition or origin.

Omar de Frias, creator of Concealed Carry, explained the thinking behind the new edition:

“Concealed Carry was created to remove preconceptions and let the tobacco tell a story of intrigue and craftsmanship. With ‘The Cuban Embargo theme’, we are pulling back the curtain on a historical moment that forever reshaped our industry. ‘Fidel’ is just the beginning of a six-part journey that will take collectors deep into the secret history of 1962.”

Limited Availability Nationwide

The first release of Concealed Carry II will be available in limited quantities through select authorized Fratello retailers. With distribution restricted to just 35 stores nationwide, “Fidel” is positioned as an exclusive release for cigar enthusiasts interested in discovering the story behind the collection.

Shipping is scheduled for October 2026.
