The 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show was the third one for Ferio Tego. This year Ferio Tego did not have any new products being showcased a the Trade Show. At the same time, this still was a busy past 12-months for Ferio Tego. Timeless Panamericana and Timeless Prestige both received line extensions. Meanwhile Ferio Tego introduced its first eponymous regular production offering with Summa. This gave us a good opportunity to catch up with Michael and also gave Michael a chance to participate in "Let's Get Pairing".

In a lot of ways, the theme for Rocky Patel Premium Cigars at the 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show picked up where last year left off. Gone are the days where Rocky Patel would release half a dozen new vitolas each year and now the company is focusing on a couple of releases. Like last year, there was one premium cigar released coming in around the $10 to $13.00 range with Gold Label. Meanwhile, there is an ultra-premium release with Year of the Dragon. While the ultra-premium release isn't close to the price point of the $100.0o Rocky Patel Conviction, it still comes it at a $35.00 price point. The other thing that has not changed is that Rocky Patel himself always makes time to talk to our team, and he is showing no signs of losing his passion for the cigar industry.

After being part of the Sutliff Distribution booth for the past three years, Matilde Cigars was in its own booth for the 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show. The booth highlighted several bold colors that have become a staple of Matilde's packaging. Owner Enrique Seijas has certainly been active, releasing a new core line (Serena Maduro) and the small batch Limited Exposure series. This year, Seijas gave attendees a preview of another limited production small batch series, the Matilde Special Edition, and introduced a new fresh pack sampler.

The 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show was the third one form Joshua and Cynn Coburn as the owner of Dissident Cigars. The brand was a part of the Oveja Negra Brands booth since Dissident was resurrected back in 2019. Meanwhile, as Dissident has done the previous two years, the Coburns came into PCA with a limited edition cigar. This year's limited edition is Dissident Plasmatic, a tribute to the late trash-punk rocker Wendy O. Williams and her band the Plasmatics. The whole punk rock theme of the Williams and Plasmatics was a perfect theme with the rebellious nature of the brand. The boys from Let's Get Pairing caught up with brand owner Joshua Coburn.

The 2024 Premium Cigar Association (PCA) Trade Show again saw Plasencia Cigars as one of the busiest booths. This is no surprise, as the booth has been one of the most popular ever since Plasencia Cigars launched its brand at the 2017 IPCPR Show. In fact, the booth was named PCA's Best Medium-Sized Booth. In addition, the Cigar Coop team recognized Plasencia's booth as one of the top booths. This year, Plasencia showcased a new line extension to its Plasencia 149 line called Cortez. It's a line that CEO Nestor Andrés Plasencia says not only allows his family to showcase some of the best tobacco but puts the spotlight on Honduras as well.
