2022-07-29 20:46:55 By : Mr. Eric Zhang

After only having four new products at last year’s PCA Convention & Trade Show—due to as global supply issues—Visol Products has the opposite problem at this year’s show, with more than 25 new products or new color options for existing products.

Included in the list of new products are cutters, lighters, ashtrays and leather cigar cases. Gaurang Patel told me that the company is either adding or deleting products from its inventory depending on how well or how poorly it is selling, but that the company has issues keeping a number of items in stock no matter how many they order.

I have been covering the Visol Products booth since 2016, and I can honestly say it has never looked better in terms of product choices or layout. The team is growing every year and the booth was packed to the gills every time I walked past it.

This is almost identical to the Caseti Trident Cutter but the TridentX includes a cigar built-in cigar rest. Like the Trident, it has a straight cut, a v-cut and a built-in 7mm punch. It comes in black, gunmetal, silver, white, blue, purple, red-maroon, orange, salmon and yellow colorways.

This plastic body v-cutter attaches to a key ring and cuts up to 60 ring gauge cigars.

Visol Cougar Single Flame Lighter

This single action ignition flame lighter is sold in four different colorways: red with gold accents, blue, black and red with gunmetal accents.

Asolid metal, triple-flame lighter that is sold in four different colorways: black, blue, gunmetal and red. The lighter measures 4.2 inches x 1.1 x 1.1 with a weight of 4.1 ounces and includes a fuel window and 9mm flip-out punch cutter.

This is a triple-flame lighter that features a plastic body and two other features: a concave lid that is designed to double as a cigar rest and a built-in punch cutter. It’s offered in three different colors—blue, orange and smoke—and is sold to retailers in packs of 20.

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.
