The ZIPY cigar case is made for adventurers – those who smoke their cigars in the office as much as outdoors, when traveling as much as on an evening out.

The reference wood for premium humidors – naturally regulates humidity and enhances the aromas of your cigars during transport
6 cigars – max ring gauge 55
Ideal capacity for a full day or a weekend – 6 cigars up to 150 mm long and 22 mm in diameter (ring gauge 55)
Cowhide leather that develops a patina

Adventurer vintage style
Assertive retro look – for those who carry their passion for cigars with the same character as their adventures

Neat presentation – ready to offer without additional packaging for any occasion
The integrated humidifier – the game-changing argument: most cigar cases only maintain humidity for 24 to 48 hours. The ZIPY features a humidification tube hidden under the heel – refill it with distilled water and your 6 cigars will remain in ideal conditions for several days of travel, without the need for an additional travel humidor.
Spanish cedar inside: not just an aesthetic lining – cedar naturally regulates ambient humidity, gradually enhances the aromas of your cigars through terpene transfer, and naturally repels tobacco beetle. The cedar interior makes the difference between a case that stores and a case that preserves.

ZIPY Maintenance – Leather and Humidifier
Good practices
-
✓Exterior leather – a soft, slightly damp cloth for marks. Leather nourishing balm twice a year to maintain suppleness and develop patina
-
✓Humidifier – refill with distilled water only. Never tap water – limescale would clog the tube and leave deposits
-
✓Cedar interior – air out the case regularly. Wipe with a dry cloth if tobacco residues accumulate on the walls
-
✓Storage – store away from direct light and excessive heat. Leather patina develops at its own pace – it's a sign of a living material
Cowhide leather patina: unlike PU leather which degrades, genuine cowhide leather improves with age. Usage marks, color variations, slight scratches form a unique patina – no two ZIPYs look alike after a few months of use. This is the opposite of a defect.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the integrated humidifier maintain humidity?
Depending on conditions (heat, opening frequency, ambient humidity), the ZIPY's integrated humidifier maintains correct humidity for 3 to 7 days. For trips longer than a week, refill the tube with distilled water before departure or add a small Boveda pack inside.
Is the ZIPY case compatible with Churchill (178 mm) cigars?
No – the ZIPY case accommodates cigars up to 150 mm. A standard Churchill measures 178 mm and will not fit in the case. For long formats (Churchill, Doble Corona, Gran Corona), consult our travel humidors which accept cigars up to 18-20 cm.
How do I refill the ZIPY humidifier?
Open the case and access the humidification tube under the heel (bottom base of the case). Gently fill it with distilled water using a dropper or syringe – never tap water. Wait for the tube to absorb the water before closing the case and placing your cigars inside.
What is the difference between the ZIPY case and a travel humidor?
The ZIPY case (6 cigars, flat format) is designed for outings of 1 to 3 days – it fits in a handbag or satchel. A travel humidor holds 8 to 15 cigars in a bulkier format suitable for multi-day trips. Both include a humidification system – the ZIPY is more compact and more stylistically assertive.
Does the ZIPY leather require special maintenance?
A nourishing leather balm 1 to 2 times a year is sufficient to maintain suppleness and nourish the fiber. For light marks and stains, use a soft, slightly damp cloth. The natural patina that develops with use is a characteristic of genuine cowhide leather – it is not maintained, it is lived.

An action-packed dark romantasy
Format: Kindle
I loved this book! Queen of Roses is an Arthurian-inspired dark romantasy that is the first book in the Blood of Fae series. The story follows Morgan, the princess of Camelot who is rumored to be part fae. Fueled by prejudiced hatred and a mistrust of fae blood, Morgan’s abusive father strips her of her birthright and hands it to her half-brother, Arthur. Instead of becoming queen, Morgan is commanded to join the temple of the goddesses when she comes of age.
However, Arthur turns into a psychopathic, power-hungry, fae-hating king as he ages. He develops malevolent plans and commands Morgan to find an ancient weapon with legendary power. Although Morgan is wary of Arthur’s intentions, she embraces the opportunity to go on a journey and potentially change her fate.
The story picks up from there and we follow Morgan on her quest to find the ancient relic. It’s full of high stakes adventure, mystery, tension, banter, forced proximity, hidden magic, self discovery, and betrayal. This first installment of the series intricately develops the world building and character development. There’s little romance in this book, but it is evident that it is a slow burn that will continue to develop throughout the remainder of the series.
Overall, I loved the world building, the epic fantasy, Morgan’s journey of self discovery, and all of the twists and turns that set the stage for the future installments. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Arthurian Fae Quest…say less.
Format: Kindle
A fae centered Arthurian tale unlike any I’ve read so far. The author did a great job at descriptive world building, with scenes easily playing out in my minds eye. There was plenty of action, suspense, and even a touch of horror. An enemies to lovers, slow burn romance, a quest, with plot twist and turns aplenty. There was a love triangle, which I’m not usually a fan of but, it played out well in this story line. The FMC, Morgan Pendragon, was so blatantly naïve, yet I typically expect as much in a ‘book one’ of a series, especially one that features a fairly sheltered princess. I was happy to read that in spite of this, she still showed a strong sense of morals, fire, and spine. Now our MMC? Kairos Draven, aka Void’s Edge. Oh, how I’m a sucker for a smoking’ hot grumpy warrior alpha with a witty mouth, and a strong sense of “touch her and die” attitude, so you know who held all my cards. That ending? Just made me swoon all the harder. Now add a battlecat that rivals the size of a horse…and well Ms. Briar Boleyn you have well and truly stolen my heart. I’m excited to see where the story goes from here, and follow along to see more of the characters growth. I went into this story fairly blind, and I think I enjoyed it all the more because of it.
Once the story got going, it had me in an absolute chokehold and it was difficult to put down.

Not a bad start
Format: Kindle
3 stars
Thank you Netgalley and Briar Boleyn for the ARC!
A camelot/king Arthur retelling with fae. I was hooked by the idea of this book immediately and was eager to jump into this world.
• slow burn
• enemies to lovers
• who did this to you
Morgan Pendragon watched her mother die by her father's hand when she was just eight years old, hiding under the bed. Morgan is believed to have the tainted blood of the fae in her veins and is cast aside so that her fathers illegitimate son, Arthur, can become the king. She's seen his cruel treatment of the fae firsthand, so when he sends her on a journey to find a fae weapon she seizes the opportunity to do more with her life. Along the way, she finds more than she could have imagined.
I don't know a whole lot about King Arthur and Camelot but I had a lot of fun with this story! The plot has some similar tropes to popular romantasy books (From blood and ash) but there's enough originality here that it doesn't feel like I'm reading a copy. I liked how the fae were different in appearance than what is typical in most fantasy books I've read. In this book they have blue hair, violet skin and a wide range of other characteristics. I thought that the world building was easy to follow and I could easily immerse myself into this world. After reading the blurb I kept wondering when she was going to go on the journey to find Excalibur and it doesn't happen until around the 45% mark.
The story is a bit slow at times but starts to pick up once they begin their journey to find Excalibur. The John Wick style Inn was a fun concept that I enjoyed reading about.
There are a lot of similarities to this and FBAA and I would have liked to have it be a little more different, but I'm hoping book two will have the story turn into something of its own. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to reading book two especially after that ending.

Right from the start, I was drawn in by the prologue!!!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Queen of Roses (Blood of a Fae #1) by Briar Boleyn
Genre General Fiction ( Adult), Romance, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Dark Romance
“More primordial than the stars. My name was on his lips as he promised unspeakable darkness to any who came between us.”
Right from the start, I was drawn in by the prologue!!!
I’m a big fan of “touch her, and you die” vibes, but I mean, what’s also not to love about a unique Arthurian retelling with gender twists, a treacherous royal court, a dangerous quest, magical Fae & mystical monsters, entwined with a bit of spice!
Morgan, Princess of Pendrath and true heir to the throne has spent most of her life dimming her light to feel safe and to make others comfortable. She is treated as an outcast in the court and repressed by her family due to the blood of the Fae within her and forced to join the Temple of the Three as a priestess in training to one day replace Merlin.
Her brother, King Arthur, who reminds me of Joffrey from Game of Thrones, later tells her that he has other plans and offers her a choice of the Temple or to marry her off for political gain, unless… that is, she can journey through the great unknown and return with a long-lost fae weapon with enchanted powers known as Excalibur.
Her quest begins with a roguish crew that includes the mysterious, arrogant, and heart-tuggingly handsome Captain of the Royal Guard, Kairos Draven, whom she can’t decide if she wants to stab or indulge in pleasure with.
Along the way are plenty of surprises, mystical creatures, and betrayal, all while Morgan uncovers more of the truth about herself and who she can trust.
This book had intriguing storylines and lovable characters that kept me turning pages and wanting more. I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds and comes together in book 2, Court of Claws, which I just started reading!!
