The 2014 release of Hannibal Collection, 3 new shapes which fill the few gaps which exist within the existing range. The Huck Finn brings all the benefits of the small Eaton/Pony express bowl with the full sized and filtered mouthpiece. The barrel shaped bowl is left with the rustic, natural finish before being given the “Legend” style yellow varnish. The base has been filled with putty and covered with a Missouri Meerschaum sticker.
Available in Black or Amber stems, please specify in the order comments (at checkout) which colour you would prefer.
Corn cobs have a slightly bad reputation, they are seen as the disposable pipe. A cheap alternative to briar and therefore inferior too, but thats not fair at all. The Missouri Meerschaum pipes are made by hand, using specifically bread corn. The porous husk allows for a dryer smoke, absorbing the moisture and like Clay & Meerschaum smokes very cool. Unlike Briar and other wooden pipes, a carbon cake is not required. The first few smokes have a sweet, nutty taste but after that the pipe holds no background flavours and always gives a pure taste to the tobacco. Many blenders (our self's included) use Missouri Meerschaum Corn Cob pipes to sample blends, for the neutral taste.
