After debuting more than 25 new products during last year’s PCA Convention & Trade Show, Visol Products followed that up by releasing more new creations during 2023 TPE earlier this year. However, that left the company with relatively few new items to show off during this year’s PCA show, although that did not seem to affect the popularity of the company’s booth one bit.

Shaped like a rectangle with one end cut off, the Visol booth was unchanged from the one it used at last year’s PCA show. Also unchanged was the large number of people who always seemed to be inside the booth looking at products or talking to the Visol staff, the latter of which seems to increase every year.

As has been the case since I started covering the company’s booth in 2016, Visol’s new selection of products included cutters, lighters and leather cigar cases. However, one major new item Visol highlighted was a leather travel case made in collaboration with Peter James Leather Co.

Visol Peter James Leather Travel Cigar Case

This zippered leather travel case measures 6 x 3 1/2 inches and includes pockets—some of which close via a magnetic clasp—that can be used to hold five cigars, cigar lighters, cigar cutters and business cards. There are four different colorways: black, brown, green and navy.

I have been smoking cigars for over eight years. A documentary wedding photographer by trade, I spent seven years as a photojournalist for the Dallas Morning News and the Fort Worth Star Telegram. I started the cigar blog SmokingStogie in 2008 after realizing that there was a need for a cigar blog with better photographs and more in-depth information about each release. SmokingStogie quickly became one of the more influential cigar blogs on the internet, known for reviewing preproduction, prerelease, rare, extremely hard-to-find and expensive cigars. I am a co-founder of halfwheel and now serve as an editor for halfwheel.
