Omar de Frias, cigar brand owner and NASA fella for 12 years and 20+ missions, hath announced the September 2017 release of his Fratello Navetta to be sneak-peeked at IPCPR 2017. Navetta is of course German for a 'whale's vagina.'*
This is one a' thems dream projects of which Mr. de Frias dreamt whilst still at NASA. Of his NASA experience, he stated, "nothing beats the feeling of getting our astronauts home safe to their families." Apparently part of this celebratory ritual was the enjoyment of a fine cigar with his fellow rocketeers.
& now the
He went on to say: "This very special blend carries the ultimate feeling of innovation, duty, honor and success."
On a personal note, Fratello owns a special place where my heart was prior to my marriage, in that their initial offering was my very first A+ final grading: Fratello Cigars - Review (8/15/15) I wish them all the best.
