Bye Bye Nat Sherman

[BROBS]

I was back in the city today and stopped by Nat Sherman. 50% off pipes and tobacco. Their pipe selection was fairly limited - maybe 35 pipes, a few castellos, vipratis, savinelli, masteo de paja, petes. Nothing amazing. I picked up a simple and traditional ser jacopo prince that caught my eye. Their list is inflated but at 50 off was still hard to pass up. Nice salespeople, kind of a sad scene.

Is that a modica line?

Is that a modica line?

I really don’t know but from a quick search i just did seems that a modica line has a red dot on the side which this doesnt. It is an L1 grade. One side says Ser Jacopo fata a mana in italia - hand made in italy, and the other says per aspera ad astra (their motto?) L1.
