[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 576409, member: 1211"] 74° and cloudy. British prince with 7 year old McClelland 2015. It was a fine, fine smoke. 9/10. My second or third pipe was a similar pipe. Before I had any knowledge of dedicated pipes, I had dedicated it to Escudo. I didn't know anyone who dedicated pipes to certain tobaccos. Then again, it was early in my smoking, and I didn't know many smokers. On an extremely limited budget, Escudo was 3-3.5Xs the price of my other tins. It was a frugal move to only smoke it out of this smaller bowled pipe, but as we know now, the bowl shape was greatly suited for such a tobacco. Dumb "luck" of a green smoker. Dunhill had it right with their fishtail stem. With princes tending to be slightly longer than your average classic shape, and with how they tend to hang from the mouth, I feel it is necessary for the prince to have a wider bit. When I see princes with tiny bits, or even with some having round and tapering to smaller bits, I don't understand it. That could never work for me on a prince. [/QUOTE]
