Italian Estates: Castello Collection Great Line Brandy (KK) (2006) Tobacco Pipe
Product Number: 004-006-43725
Since their founding in 1947 by Carlo Scotti, Castello has handcrafted high-quality pipes and helped elevate the reputation of Italian pipes to luxury status. Furthermore, Castello's approach to shaping has helped cultivate the bowl-centric and whimsical Italian neoclassic aesthetic. This Brandy is part of Castello's Great Line, a series reserved for the Italian firm's larger and more muscular designs. Though this Brandy isn't as robust as some other Great Line offerings we've seen, it still possesses a full-bodied in-hand presence and a substantive build, with a palpable girth evident throughout the pipe, from its bold, tapered bowl to rigid diamond shank. Said bowl houses a capacious chamber within its supple, softly contoured frame, ensuring plenty of long, leisurely smoking sessions. Dressed in the warm Collection finish, this piece offers a wealth of attractive grain, with tight flame grain and dense clusters of birdseye populating the stummel's surface.
