Savenelli Shop in Milan

Anyone been into this shop? Any feedback appreciated. I may have the opportunity to stop in there briefly in a couple of months.

It’s cool but I preferred Noli in the market.

Thanks Pianopuffer. I will look that up.

I'd be interested how the pricing goes at the "home church." As with Peterson, I think the prices at the home shops are not discounted, since they are supporting the image of the brand.

Well if I make it there I will let you know. It will be a busy day of travel with that visit tacked on the end if possible.

The Savinelli shop in Milan is not anymore what it used to be a couple of decades ago: then the shop window was entirely filled with pipes, whereas now there's only a few and there is a lot of gadgets; I don't think that the price of the pipes is discounted. Noli in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele has a good stock of pipes (Castello and Dunhill among them) and tobaccos. Al Pascia in via Torino is also Worth a visit.
