Hello everyone, Yllwbeard here. I will be living in Rome for just another month and have recently picked up a few flea market pipes a westminister and a butz choquin. I went to the tobacconist that I know here and bought some pipe tobacco called "Forte premium pipe tobacco,Pieno". I was just wondering about everyone's opinion on Italian pipe tobacco and also what brands should I look for while I am on the hunt for vintage pipes?

Haha well they just so happened to have one of those evil tobacco blender stare wearing characters there, I admit because of my price point he pointed me to the shelf that was across the room from all the separate jars of what I would assume is the "good stuff"

Savinelli has two newer blends; other than that, I can't think of much tobacco blended by Italians.
