Northern Briars Bing # 28
“Bing” in Gentlemen’s Black. What you may not know is that Merchant Service, UK created this shape specifically for Bing. The idea being that it would deliver a good length smoke and the smoke itself, would be away from his nose & eyes. Those of you who watch AMC will know who he was. Part of its appeal is it's lightweight, it kept the smoke away from your eyes and nose and delivered a long smoke.
All set off rather nicely with a silver band. Perfect sitter. Group (3)
