Does anyone out there in pipeland know about Gloredo brand of pipes? Made in China, I believe, and they look beautiful but don't know anyone that has smoked one. As I find myself in Shanghai for the next five weeks or so, I thought I might look into them. They have a distribution shop in the next district over from mine. Thanks in advance for any info.
By the by, pipe smoking seems almost unheard of over here. I've yet to see one anywhere, and pipe tobacco shops; well, there may actually be two or three (and they.re primarily up-scale Cuban cigar shops) in a city of 19+ million! Seven thousand years of cultural development and they still don't smoke well aged VaPers in a descent pipe!
But great food, pretty good beer at $1.50 a six pack, and where else can you get fried scorpion on a stick? Try doing that at your local county fair. :mrgreen:
