The Kingston Judge is the third pipe in the collaboration series of Missouri Meerschaum Company and the legendary blending house Cornell & Diehl. Like the Carolina Gent and Charles Towne Cobbler, the Kingston Judge brings you refined pipe smoking in a corn cob pipe.
A handsome and stately pipe, the Kingston Judge echoes the men of the past who walked the halls of Conway City Hall during its early lifetime as the Old Horry County Courthouse in what was then Kingston, and is now Conway, South Carolina. A filled and varnished Rob Roy bowl is inlaid with two beadlines that run below of the pipe’s rim and the bottom of the bowl is fitted with a genuine hardwood plug. A nickel ferrule on the shank compliments the beauty of the Cumberland pattern acrylic mouth piece.
Whether you smoke in the comfort of your own home in silent contemplation, or out in the night amongst others, the Kingston Judge will give you that delicious smoke and a comfortable air of sophistication.
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.
