Castello 7 New

We are pleased to be an official Castello dealer, since 2021. We offer one the larger selections of these best of Italian pipes, even since their production is slightly diminished recently. Castello pipes were founded by Carlo Scotti in 1947, in Cantu, Italy. He created the modern neo-classical Italian pipe style establishing the Castello pipe as the mark of quality. Castello pipes would take Carlo Scotti from a tiny obscure artisan studio to a superb custom designed beautiful bright, airy studio and his pipes became world renown for their quality. 

Every Castello pipe is completely handmade, from start to finish with a hand cut Lucite stem. It is the only large artisanal pipemaker that ages its' briar for at least 10 years. The Castello pipe is considered by many to be the world's most consistent smoking pipe. 

Castello Grading:
Sea Rock, Old Antiquari, Vergin - the K's and G's refer to the size. The more K's the bigger the pipe, if bigger than 4K it's a G or GG. All Smooth Grades' - Trademark, "Castello", Collection, Fiamatta the K's and G's refer to the grain quality. For certain very large smooth shapes, the more G-s the larger the pipe. It is a uniquely Italian system. The quality of the briar is the same in every finish and grade.
