A new luxury lifestyle magazine is to enter the UK from the founders of private members’ club Quintessentially.
The Quintessentially Magazine has already been launched in New York, Dubai and Beijing and is due to reach UK news-stands in February.
New magazine company Luxury Publishing, founded by James Reatchlous, has been set up to produce the magazine, which is hoping for sales of 35,000.

Editor Catherine Peel said the title would appeal to successful, wealthy individuals and entrepreneurs working in the media and the City.
“Hopefully, they will feel like they are rubbing shoulders with members of Quintessentially. We want it to reflect their lifestyle so there will be travel, fashion, style, food, drink and motoring. We want to cover all aspects,” she said. “There are thousands of luxury magazines out there, but we want to redefine what luxury living is all about.”
Prior to The Quintessentially Magazine, Peel was managing editor of American Express Centurion Magazine.
