On our last trip to Switzerland, we discovered that Rapport London had added humidors to their luxury goods portfolio. A fourth-generation family-owned business, Rapport London is still run today by the Rapport family that founded the company over a century ago in 1898. Back then, Maurice A. Rapport produced his first clock, and the company soon became a household name in clockmaking and horology worldwide. Then in 1980, Rapport expanded its product offering by launching its first watch box and watch travel accessory collections. Today, Rapport London 1898 sells luxury watch winders, watch boxes, trunks, jewelry boxes, humidors, and other small leather goods of high quality.
High above the pristine slopes of Verbier, where Alpine air meets timeless craftsmanship, the Rapport London Humidor stands as a testament to British excellence in luxury accessories. For over four decades, Rapport London has been the guardian of precious timepieces and now extends that same meticulous attention to the art of cigar preservation. Exquisitely detailed with high-end gold-plated hardware, a humidifying unit, a hygrometer, and meticulously finished cedar wood are testaments to how Rapport London makes things to last a lifetime.
The burr walnut exterior on the Rapport London Heritage Humidor gleams like polished cognac in the firelight, its grain patterns echoing the mountain ridges visible through panoramic windows. This handcrafted masterpiece represents decades of Rapport London's commitment to superior materials and traditional British craftsmanship—the same philosophy that has made their watch winders and jewelry boxes coveted by collectors worldwide.
The gold-plated hygrometer maintains its steady reading at your desired humidity level between 68-75% humidity, demonstrating Rapport London's understanding that precision matters whether you're looking after a vintage Rolex, a modern Zenith, or aging a Cuban Cohiba or a Cameroon Reserva Aladino cigar. The magnetic humidifier works silently, maintaining the critical humidity range that transforms tobacco leaves into liquid poetry.
Inside, the American cedar wood lining reveals Rapport London's material expertise. Known for superior humidity retention and aromatic qualities that enhance cigar aging, this premium cedar creates the perfect microclimate for up to 100 cigars. The dual-compartment cedar tray showcases the same organizational precision that has made Rapport London's watch storage solutions legendary among collectors. The Rapport London Heritage Humidor closes with the soft precision of a Swiss timepiece, its seal as tight as Rapport London's bond with quality. Inside, 100 cigars rest in their cedar sanctuary, aging toward their moment of glory, protected by the finest British craftsmanship and decades of expertise in luxury preservation.
Since establishing their reputation in luxury storage solutions for watches and jewelry, Rapport London has applied the same exacting standards to cigar preservation. Each humidor features the company's signature attention to detail—from the perfectly calibrated hygrometer to the seamless integration of form and function that defines British luxury craftsmanship.
Available in high gloss or leather finishes, these handcrafted wooden sanctuaries transform any space into a shrine to sophisticated living. The chrome-plated fixtures catch the last Alpine light, reflecting not just the surrounding beauty but Rapport London's unwavering commitment to excellence. And on top of everything, the Rapport London humidors have a 24-month guarantee.
In the thin air of Verbier or the hot air of Texas, where every breath is precious, Rapport London ensures that every draw is worthy of the altitude, the setting, and the moment itself. This is more than storage—it's stewardship. More than preservation—it's the continuation of a proud British tradition of excellence in luxury accessories. The Rapport London Heritage Humidor is available in three different sizes and also in black or brown leather. For us, the beauty of the Burr Walnut has no comparison.
