    First Castello

    Just finished smoking my first KKKK Sea Rock Castello! Packed it with some 40th Anniversary. It felt great in the hand. Awesome draw and cool as ever. The bit was to my liking and for 275.00 brand new I feel it was a great deal! [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img] [/url][/img]

    Pipe Shape and Flavor

    I never really noticed how much a pipe shape can effect the flavor of tobacco. Maybe a little here and there. I must say that I have finally experienced a full flavor change. When I first cracked open a 2006 tin of Hal O the Wynd I packed a bowl in my Radice Horn. It was amazing! Sweet and...

    Are All Blowfish Pipes So Expensive?

    I have been browsing at blowfish shapes lately and noticed they are pretty hefty in the cash department. Briarworks seems to be the most affordable and those start at about 330 bucks new. Is it the size of the block or the craftsmanship needed to carve such a shape? Any intel on these intriguing...
