The Italian's produce fantastic pipes. Radice hit mainstream back when I was a teen and took some of my folding money. I haven’t had one that I’d complain about so far. They’re worth taking out for a spin.This is a reminder to me to never "give up" on looking at a brand, even if you think subjectively, it's just not for you. I've literally, until today, never seen (at least to my knowledge) a single Radice I personally liked, despite the fam, and now I've seen two I not only like but LOVE. Gorgeous! Stunning. And truly different from anything I've ever seen. Now another brand calling me to find money to spend on, lol.
I'm heartbroken for Black House too. And I have very little left. Enjoy it whole you can.Rainy and crappy outside so this should cheer me up. Smoking a Peterson Squire (Bulldog) from the Baker Street series. Hearth & Home Black House one of my favorite Balkans (RIP)

Oriental Silk had been a regular for me for quite some time til I bought it around 6 months ago and it tasted radically different and not in a good way. So, stopped buying it til quite recently. This recent batch tastes like it used to for me which is great.
