Savinelli Pipes, Factory Tour

The case of Savinelli is that of an enduring and thriving family business whose enviable reputation has endured for well over a century. Presently the largest pipe factory in the whole of Italy, the secret behind their success may very well consist of their readiness to adopt new formats and introduce new designs so as to suit the widest audience possible. Italian pipes, whose popularity is particularly high in the United States, are known throughout the world for the choice of quality briar as well as for their coherent shapes. Adopting both the latest industrial practices and preserving the tradition that earned their country this enviable notoriety, Savinelli continues to innovate pipe smoking every year and preserve their production at the highest standards. This blend of old and new, of manual and industrial, is what I believe defines this outstanding brand.
