All About AccessoriesAuthor: Inspector X
There are many cigar cases on the market, but there are only a few that could be considered high-end. One of the more renowned companies when it comes to leather cigar cases is the Canadian Peter James Leather Company and they are now releasing a new line which is a step above all their previous products.
Dubbed the Peter James Black Label Collection the new zippered leather cases are made in Italy with the scratch resistant and water repelling Saffiano leather. The case holds five cigars, a lighter and a cutter with a larger storage pocket. Behind the pocket is a slot for a 60 gram Boveda pack. When closed, the case measures 9.5 inches x 5.5 x 1.75; it expands to 12.5 inches when fully opened.
The cases are available in five colors, Black, Forest Green, Navy Blue, Tan, and Tiffany Blue, and have an MSRP of $999, three times the price of the current Peter James Leather Company offerings.
“Each piece takes over sixty hours to produce by artisans with over forty years of experience,” says John Peter Laurendi, founder of Peter James “These cigar organizers have set our highest bar to date by combining a luxury feel with the functionality of a softshell carry humidor. Each piece can maintain humidity for up to forty-nine days with a sixty-gram, 75% RH Boveda pack. This exclusive collection is a testament to the Peter James Co. ethos, utilizing some of the finest materials and craftsmanship, the BLC is sure to be a welcomed addition to any everyday carry kit for the contemporary aficionado seeking style and humidity control.”
