First Smoke in Birthday Gator.

[docrx]

Loaded up some of Jack Lee's Honey Malt in my Savinelli Alligator poker and fired it up after I checked the hole drilling(perfect). Used a balsa filter and the pipe drew well and smoked smooth right off the bat. The lucite swirled stem is pretty but a tad hard as I'm used to vulcanite.The pipe did not get hot just nice and warm in the hand and I'm digging my first poker shape.The stem also has a cool alligator logo . Great smoke although at the bottom of the bowl I did notice a taste of the bowl coating which disappeared during the second bowl.Overall I am quite happy with my birthday gift .While not a high end pipe , a good value for the money for sure. BTW nice and light for you clenchers out there.

Nice looking pipe. I am thinking of adding a Sav into my collection

I've been wanting one of those ever since I got into pipes seriously three years ago. Hope you enjoy it.

Great looking pipe. I have Savinelli Trevi Rustic 606. Absolutely love it. I have been using the balsa filters but have recently stopped using them and inserted the spacer. The pipe smokes/tastes better. Love the alligator look and have been contemplating whether to add one into the rotation.
