Followup on the smoke: that was GOOD. First time ive ever put Semois in a briar, WOW.
First impressions, I have to like the looks of a pipe and for me it passes that test, I’m all over the place with different styles of pipes. This pipe is also light in weight and the draw is excellent. The first smoke was an aromatic, it smoked very dry, so far I am impressed. I travel with my pipes a lot and I think my falcon will be perfect for that, especially camping. Thanks for asking @Chasing EmbersAny thoughts or opinions yet?
