It happened in Shanghai, China. Dunhill rolled out several new pipes for Chinese market exclusively. Great event. Although I lost the contest, still hope Chinese market will get more says in pipe community in the world. 8)

Very interesting. As China continues to be interested in pipes and tobacco, I wonder how much shift we'll see from other pipe makers who can make more money selling to China as this market opens up.
It's been a burgeoning market for a few years now. Top Danish pipemakers, like Teddy Knudsen, have been selling in Asia where they can get much higher prices for their work because pipes are both a status symbol and a form of business gift.
Right now China is on a huge float with money rolling in and Communist Party billionaires going on spending sprees.

Would be interesting to be at a Dunhil launch in a room full of pipers. Would feel at home instead of being shunned for being a smoker.
