FAQ

English  |  Français  |  Español  |  Italiano  |  Deutsch


Do you sell cigars?

We absolutely do not carry tobacco, nor cigars.  Instead, weve chosen to cater to cigar smokers by providing them with accessories and products designed to better fulfill their needs and desires.

Do you sell cutters and lighters?

We do not.  We believe there are plenty of tremendous brands already covering those needs.

At Be CS Design, we’ve decided to cover your needs for accessories & products currently not adequately fulfilled by available offerings.  Through innovative design and improved technology, we undertook a re-thinking of all our products to better answer your demands.

Is there a meaning to the AS and SC acronyms on your Travel Bags?

Most certainly! Our Duffel Bag is wear Across Shoulders and since our Carry On is very cool, it incites to Stay Calm

What types of customisation and personalisation do you offer?

It varies according to the accessory or product.  For instance, our Guayaberas are made-to-order with YOUR own stitched/embroidered Logo starting with as low as a collective purchase of 25 only units.Our Ashtrays or our Desktop Humidor Tops can be adorned with marquetry of your own design, subject to feasibility and approval, of course.  Our Travel Bags and Aviator Hats can be monogrammed.  And so on.  In all cases, please do inquire.

Why do you produce most, if not all of your accessories and products in such small quantities?

First and foremost, because of the scarcity of the best materials.  Secondly, because of the fact that many are handmade ; as well, the ones manufactured are always produced in small batches by very high-end sub-contractors.  And, as always,because, our dedication to perfection translates into fewer selected items: we reject anything that is not absolutely perfect, no seconds in our case.  Exactly as is the case with the best handmade cigars: quality over quantity. 

Why don’t your mention or list your prices?

Essentially, because prices are subject to change as a result of many factors: personalisation or customisation, differences relating to sales taxes or duties to the countries involved, various costs for shipment and packaging, currencies, availability to retailers or end-users, terms and conditions of sales, and so on.

We still believe that all our accessories and products bear an affordable price, certainly when compared with the few similar products on the market.

How can you still have affordable prices?

3 main reasons for this:

  • Because we maintain a very low inventory: we prefer to make to order, since we customise in most cases.  Therefore, we avoid any waste. For instance, your order for mixed Guayaberas is made according to the specifics needs and requests of each buyer, in terms of size and choice of colour.
  • Because, we also ask for a commitment on your part in the form of an advance payment/deposit and a waiting period. Since reciprocity is not an empty word for us, maintaining affordable prices under the circumstances is our way of returning the favour.
  • Because you are dealing directly with Be CS Design.  We travel the World to work with the best artisans/manufacturers AND we offer you the opportunity of purchasing directly from us.

What about distributors or resellers?

We welcome all related inquiries.  But it does not mean that we have access to ALL potential customers.  High end stores have a more intimate relationship than most with their customers.  Some of our products and accessories will be available through selected and exclusive points of sale.  For us, the proximity and quality of service they offer are the best tokens of their indispensable role. It is with great pride that we’ll be putting some of our products and accessories for sale on their shelves.

What is the purpose of having removable Spanish Cedar inside your Desktop Humidors?

It is of paramount importance! Almost all current Humidors feature Spanish Cedar as their essential inside-lining, either as solid wood or as a veneer-overlay.  Unfortunately, the intrinsic properties of Spanish Cedar —  an ideal environment for cigar storage and a lasioderma-repellent — have a limited life-span.  Spanish Cedar loses its essential properties after a period of less than a year to up a few years, depending how it was seasoned and maintained.  Humidity, which is an essential ingredient in cigar-storage, also contributes to reducing the life-span of Spanish Cedar.

Therefore, it’s important to have the ability to change it over time … without rendering the humidors useless.

At Be CS Design, we wanted to protect your from this “naturally programmed” obsolescence. We even add to it by providing you with the best-suited varieties of Spanish Cedars, allowing for the perfect mode of storage according to your specific needs (regular consumption, vintage or more woody-flavoured).  It also means that you can freely change the use of your humidor from time to time.

How can you have proper storage inside your Desktop Humidors without a tightly-closed lid?

No one would really like to have a completely sealed humidor … except if you intend to increase the risks of developing mildew inside and similar problems.

Your Desktop Humidors need to breathe.  All they need is to have a certain degree of humidity inside and have the ability to distribute it adequately.

Our design perfectly renders that function.  And gives you Desktop Humidors that are free of odour (only water-based glue and varnish).  Also, it gives you removable Tops, free of metal parts, ready to be changed to your liking, able to fit your current moods and tastes.

Do I need to place a humidification device inside your Desktop Humidors?

You already have oneintegrated in each and every Top, facing your cigars, in order to optimise the available space and evenlydistribute the humidity.  It combines a very special, completely natural and rare essence of wood, with ourunique and proprietary know-how.  It’s a very simple but efficient humidification systemwhich can be seasoned from time to time simply by spraying distilled/demineralised water.

Do you provide an internal hygrometer?

We do not, allowing you to choose the one you prefer.

What is this “Rakatops” contraption?

Rakatops is a Be CS Design copyrighted coined name for “Rack à Tops”.  In other words, a Rack FOR Tops.  This simple, light and sleek storage device allows you to store and display your collection of Tops.  Certainly a more useful idea than to stack them in a corner, which would be a shame!

Do your Pairing Delicacies cater only to cigar smokers?

Absolutely NOT!  Of course, we first and foremost developed and created our Pairing Delicacies to appeal to most cigar smokers, but, take our word for it, our Chocolates and other pairing delicacies are SO original they leave no one indifferent.
