After the let down from my co-worker who was in Dublin and couldn't find the Peterson Store... I ordered a Peterson P-Lip Darwin Standard System Pipe. Wow. Awesome pipe, great cool smoke, the p-lip is amazing.

Its actually a decent sized bowl - just looks small in my gorilla hands.
I saw it had been delivered and couldn't wait to get home today to break open the box. I had them throw in some McClelland Pastry (Aro) to try out, and also not bad at all.
Pipe as on smokingpipes:

As soon as I saw the pic i thought, "Gee, that's a tiny Pete." And then I saw what you said about your gorilla hands lol. Congratulations on your first Pete. Hope it smokes great for you.

Congrats, enjoy and clean the moisture from the well after each smoke, so you can always have a good tasting bowl!

Congrats on a great looking Pete! I have 3 System pipes, all P-lips and all great smokers! All of them are dedicated to aros, as they seem to do a great job with those blends.

Well, I had my doubts about the plip, but it sounds like it's well worth a try.

That is a sharp pipe.

After the let down from my co-worker who was in Dublin and couldn't find the Peterson Store...

Couldn't find the Peterson store in Dublin? Jesus, is your co-worker named Helen Keller? It's tough to miss.

Such a beautiful pipe and you had to go throw some crappy aro in it huh? :rofl:
Enjoy it man. I've always loved my Petersons. Looking forward to getting a closer look at it this week at the meeting.

Ain't that purty!

I bought a System 317, and it IS small. I like it well enough, but I'm going to take a look at the Darwin now...PAD!

OK so follow up on the smoke, 2 bowls and this is certainly one of my best pipes - relights are few and far between, cool dry smoke on the Aros. I now see what all the hub-ub has been about.

Does it take a pipe cleaner all the way through?

@dryseason91 I like it - its different as I can feel the roof of my mouth being coated vs hitting my tongue - it cuts back on the bite for sure. I like it and can see myself getting another couple.
@kcpoe Yes! I had read about some who said a pipe cleaner wouldn't go through, I have had no problem cleaning the stem. You really see all the moisture in the shank/reservoir though.
