252. SPECIAL BULLETIN: The Rua Spigot Drops Tomorrow!
This just in from Pete Central:
The Rua Spigot debuts tomorrow, Friday, October 29th, at both SPC and SPE (Smokingpipes.com & Smokingpipes.eu) in very limited numbers.
Andy Wike at Laudisi writes that “it’s the first Peterson to wear a contrast sandblast finish—something you typically see only on artisan pipes—and is elevated by a domed spigot mount and fishtail stem.”
“The name was inspired,” he continues, “by the Irish word for ‘red-haired,’ which coincidentally is also the word most Irish story books use for red foxes—for example, Madra Rua—Reynard. There are four shapes in the series for now: the 106, 999, XL02 and 69. They launch at SPC and SPE Friday, October 29.”
Adds Josh Burgess, “the contrast sandblast was produced under our pipe specialist Giacomo Penzo’s guidance.”
