The Al Pascia boys, Leo & Cosimo, are once again upon their yearly search for the best briar’s coming out of the shops from the most talented German & Danish artisan pipe makers. The pipes they hand-select over the next few weeks will be the same pipes that find a home on our pipe racks over the next few months.
Already they have visited with carvers such as Axel Reichert, Frank Axmacher, Jurgen Moritz and Joao Reis. If I know the boys well their next few pictures will include the likes of Tom Eltang, Former, Cornelius Manz, Kent Rasmussen, Kurt Balleby and the list goes on and on.
Join the boys on their hunting trip for great briar with the best seat in the house, your computer. Every day they will be uploading pictures from their ‘Briar Tour’ and giving us an inside glimpse into the pipe-makers they meet & the magnificent pipe sculptures they carve.
Visit the link below daily to see the Al Pascia Briar Tour 2012 take shape.
