For what it is worth, I reckon the Deluxes are probably the best value range of pipes that Peterson produce, both in terms of functionality and value. Those who malign the brand because they’re made by the hundreds using machines, are very wrong, in my opinion. I like them a lot and the bang for the buck is the best I’ve ever seen for new pipes of this quality. I have found that there is a clear dichotomy of opinion on the views of pipe smokers on the Rosslare series, they either ‘love ’em or loath them’.

Some say to never smoke a pipe to the bottom of the bowl (which could cause the airway to char as well captain black tobacco as incite a burnout), some say you need a cake on the bottom as well. I can only give you my history, which is probably not as wise as other smokers. I pack the pipe almost to the rim and try to be very aware when I’m smoking it for the first six or eight bowls.
With the pipes being so big I would imagine they will not be to everyone’s taste. My own view is somewhat biased, the Darwins were probably tailor made with me in mind!! I find them brilliant smokers, the bowls never heat up, because they are so large and the shape is so very comfortable for longer periods of smoking. Personally I give them a slight edge over the Mark Twains in that department.

The result is that all the moisture flows into the reservoir and, thus cannot reach the smoker’s mouth. The Peterson Lip further enhances the effectiveness of the graduated bore by directing the flow of smoke upwards and away from the tongue. This achieves a uniquely even distribution of smoke and virtually eliminates any chance of tonguebite or bitterness. Furthermore, the shape is contoured so that the tongue rests comfortably in the depression under the opening.
But the evidence, at least in the US, is of a renaissance. This modest increase is credited by many to retro-loving students. Facebook and MySpace have thousands of members signed up to various pipe smoking enthusiast groups.
