If Matt Booth was back last year, he’s really back this year, starting with his own booth—last year he was in the Caldwell booth—and not just a recently released full line, but that line’s first extension.
It took me two days of dropping by Booth’s booth to get to talk to him, but I finally did and got the rundown of new stuff coming down the line.
Room101 Farce Connecticut
In mid-May, Matt Booth fully released Farce, his first solo line since departing Davidoff. Now, he’s releasing the Farce Connecticut—or FarceCT if you prefer—the first of what could likely be two line extensions.
