PCA 2023: Dapper Cigar Co.

After showing off five new products last year, Dapper Cigar Co. decided to bring just one new creation to the 2023 PCA Convention & Trade Show. However, that singular cigar holds two separate distinctions: not only is it the company’s first limited edition release, but it is also the first time the company has sold a figurado vitola.

Booth-wise, Dapper made some changes for this year’s show, all of which were quite obvious to anyone who visited the company last year. That included not only a substantially larger booth but also a new backdrop and new lighted cabinets for products instead of the stand display that was at the center of the booth last year.

Dapper’s one release this year was created as part of a collaboration with HolySmoke, a Bible study group founded in 2018 that “celebrates the intersection of faith and cigars” by providing “a comfortable environment where individuals can enjoy a cigar and get to know God better through fellowship and discussions about the Bible.”

The 10,000 cigars making up this limited edition release are packaged in 12-count boxes, a number chosen to symbolize the 12 disciples who followed Jesus in the Bible.
