I don’t think you’d be disappointed. I’ve had several and all have been high quality and excellent smokers. The one in the photo is my only one at the moment. I marvel at it every time I smoke it. It is on par or better than castellos I have paid twice as much for.

Smoking some ESO Tilbury in my Radice Clear billiard. My best smoking pipe. Perfection. Drinking some black coffee on a chilly fall morning in the Ozarks. Have a great day, everyone.

Crisp, cool morning in the Ozarks. Enjoying some 2009 C&D Virginia flake in my prized 1953 patent era Dunhill LB Shell. A cup of coffee on the side. My favorite thing about this pipe next to its perfect smoking capabilities is the deep craggy blast. Enjoy your morning, everyone!

Smoking some Sutliff 507c Virginia flake in a 1967 Dunhill Shell LB. Black coffee on the side. Good morning to everyone.

Well, after several months of health issues, I’m getting back to normal, or maybe finding a new normal. This morning I’m smoking a new to me 1968 Dunhill Shell OX with Scottish Flake and black coffee. This pipe is feather flight and smokes perfectly cool and dry. I can’t understand for the life...

Thank you, friend.

Today, on my 48th birthday, I am enjoying my most prized pipe, a 1953 patent era Dunhill LB, filled with my favorite blend, Scottish Cake. Black coffee on the side. My wife brought me donuts for breakfast, a special treat I indulge in only rarely. A light breeze through the trees with a slightly...

A splendid way to spend a Saturday night. Reading the Hobbit again (30 years since the last time) and enjoying a bowl of 2008 Key Largo in a Castello Old Antiquari. Can’t put this book down this week. Enjoy your night, gents.

Sun Bear gone through another venue.

Smoking some Bayou Morning in a Savinelli 101 Classic Bordeaux finish. Amazing pipe! A glass of Evan Williams on the side. These Savinelli 101s are all just fantastic smokers. Never had a bad one.

Smoking some 2013 C&D Virginia Flake in a new Moretti virgin sandblast shape 55 clone. I’m on the fence with this pipe. Smokes perfectly, and I am a sucker for a virgin sandblast. But the shape is rather bulbous and cartoony to me, although it’s not that heavy (56 grams). Trying to see if it...

Smoking some Bayou Morning on a cool and crisp Ozark morning. Smoking it in a 1979 Dunhill Bruyere 51031, a pipe I brought back from the dead after decades of smoking without a cleaning. It now is one of my favorite smokers, a pipe I reach for often. I can now understand why it was so beloved by...

This is the best thing I have read today. The world needs more of this.

Smoking some Erik Stokkebye Morning Blend in my 1957 Dunhill 252. Coffee with cream on the side. Heavenly combination

One of my finest smoking pipes— a Radice Clear saddle bit billiard from the 1990’s. Smoking some Scottish Flake. These pipes, in my opinion, represent some of the best value in pipes today. Very close to a perfect pipe—smokes cool and dry, balanced proportions, open draw, no fills, beautiful...

Smoking some Scottish Flake in a 1953 parent era Dunhill LB. Black coffee on the side.

A good year indeed.

Ok, let me expand this offer to 3 tins of Capstan Blue, St Bruno’s, Scottish Cake, Firestorm, Barbary Coast, or any combination of the above.

Closing out the evening with some Scottish Flake in a 1967 Dunhill Bruyere LB. A cup of decaf coffee on the side. Sleep well, everyone.

Thank you! I will
