Hello,

I purchased this last week, and opened it today on my birthday, as a birthday present to myself. 🎂 🎁 🎈 🎉

Purchased from Tabaccheria Corti, a Radice Clear Dublin with a faux bamboo look in the briar, and with Baldo Baldi briar aged over 20 years.

Here’s to Luca and Tabaccheria Corti! :) 👍 ⭐


I believe it was a few weeks ago, they started to received these Baldo Baldi briar Radice pipes. It was mentioned on the website that Baldo passed away last year, and the Radice brothers bought the briar blocks from his daughter, aged over 20 years.

I frequently visit the site, and when I was at the site, many of these had already sold out. So I emailed Luca, asking about another shipment, which he replied they were already getting more, around 5 days later.

At that point, Luca mentioned this pipe, which was on hold for someone that backed out and I could purchase it. Let me tell you, I was extremely excited, that I lucked out like this, because when I saw the pipe, which appeared sold, I was really bummed.

Here’s to Happy Smokes, and that you also get the toys you want! ❤️

Be well everyone! ❤️

I forgot the specs for those that like specs, hey, who doesn’t like specs! LOL 😆

After I’ve had my first smoke in it, I’m going to weigh this. It feels really light, but it’s very well balanced maybe that’s why it feels light.

Just did a piece of business with Tobac Corti for the first time and Luca is indeed friendly and helpful. I get the feeling he's the type of guy you want to do repeated business with.

Hey bluegrassbrian, can’t wait to see what you got... :)

Luca is great, he really goes that extra mile and helps out. As a family owned business he really makes you feel a part of the family too.

This is my second pipe from him, my Bay Denmark apple was the first.

Both pipes shipping free, DHL International Express, arrived in 3-5 business days.

I’d seriously recommend to everyone to always keep an eye out for what they’re selling. :)

Sabina is next on my radar...

P.S. To be honest, this is the only place I’m looking at buying pipes from as a business, otherwise, I’m only looking at the small artisan carvers, to purchase directly from.

I can't wait to get it - the most expensive single pipe I will have bought. It'll be a couple weeks yet..
