PCA 2022: Founders Cigar Co.

Founders Cigar Co. is utilizing the 2022 PCA Convention & Trade Show to release the company’s first candela-wrapped blend.

The new creation fits in well with Founders’ previous releases, all of which are named after specific men and women who had a hand in the creation of America as a country.

Although this is the first year that Founders has attended the PCA Convention & Trade Show, the veteran-owned company has a distinctive booth with a modern flair as well as plenty of seating.
