The Savinelli Clark's Favorite was my first pipe I ever bought at the Chicago Pipe Show . It's in the top 5 of my favorite pipes that I own. I also have the smooth version.
Churchwarden are made for new pipe smoker who wanna be Gandalf and smoke cherry tobacco ??
It’s funny, people keep making the reference to lord of the rings, but I don’t watch those movies or read those books. ?
@JSPiper71 ?Beeyooootiful!? (Sorry about the moisture...it seems my mouth is watering!)
I'd have to respectfully disagree. I've been smoking a pipe for 55 yrs and have 9 churchwardens. There are times that I feel as old as Gandalf, but I certainly wouldn't want to emulate him. I gave up on cherry tobacco back in 1967 after my first bowl of Middleton's Cherry Blend.Churchwarden are made for new pipe smoker who wanna be Gandalf and smoke cherry tobacco ??
I have one I made out of an old Tilshead. For me, it’s more of a hassle to smoke a Churchwarden.
I personally dislike the aesthetic of them. For me. I’ve seen profile pics of other members smoking a warden and the pipe looks quite at home on that smoker. I had one where the engineering did not deliver a good hit so that also put me off. I think what was happening was the bowl was small and the bore on that long stem was too wide, so between those 2 conditions it was delivering thin, wimpy puffs with muted flavor. I gave that pipe away.
I’m convinced you’re largely right, say 9 out of 10 times. The remaining 10% are real OG’s though.Churchwarden are made for new pipe smoker who wanna be Gandalf and smoke cherry tobacco ??
I’m sure you can also take 2 balrog at the same time , gandalf an amateur
I've never actually read them or seen the movies. I hadn't heard of Tolkien until I was nearly thirty.
I have recently commissioned a Scottie Piersel Pencil Shank Footlong- It is one foot (12 inches long)
I love smoking it. Beautiful smoker.
Don’t know if it could be called a churchwarden
