does anyone else love his faminatta grades and collection grades?

I have 3 fams and i keep oogling his collection grades in the Dublin shapes with the brindle stems.

I really need to make the chicago show and pick his brain.

You know, I've never had a Viprati. Heard good things, but never smoked one. I'm more into the Danish pipes though.

I have a deep love for the way many high end Italian pipe makers execute the form of there pieces.

All 3 of my vipratis very well. My only gripe is the price. I find myself sqirling away cash all the time now.

If you want to pick his brain you better brush up on your Italian. I buy a bunch of pipes from them and I know he speaks no english. His partner does but is not real helpful with any questions that have a technical nature.
I buy them twice a year and we always sell out before the next purchase.

I know a little but not enough.

I must say the pipes are a real treat.
