Castello
Blast Billiard
About the maker:
Carlo Scotti created the Castello pipe in 1947,
in a little artisan workshop in the village of Cantu, Italy. The name, which
means "castle", comes from the old castle that Scotti could see
looming over his shop when he looked out his window. His aim was to produce a
pipe which was technically and aesthetically perfect, a goal which many feel he
achieved. Castello pipe soon became the most sought after Italian pipe in
America in the years following WWII. Castello pipes are noted for their soft and
smooth smoking characteristics, traits inherent in the top quality briar!
