Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation: Argang Brown Ale (1855) Tobacco Pipe

This 4th Generation bent Brandy is named for Erik Stokkebye's 1855 blend — a rather traditional, pure Virginia mixture corresponding to his great-grandfather's year of birth. Many of Stokkebye's blends and pipe shapes honor significant dates in the familial company's rich history, and like the tobacco blend itself, this shape is smooth, natural, and approachable, crafted by Peder Jeppesen of Neerup and exhibiting a soft-lined, plump aesthetic in a compact, Nosewarmer form.

Appropriately named, the Brown Ale finish dresses Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation pipes in a low-depth sandblast and a stain of smoldering reddish-brown hues not unlike the deep, amber color of that traditional style of beer. Similar to the pipe's shaping, this finishing style reflects the signature aesthetic of Peder Jeppesen of Neerup, known for his contrasting stains and use of vibrant color palettes. This pipe is commended further by an ornate, bronze accent band, while the acrylic stem tastefully complements the stummel.
