But this is the first higher end (to me anyway) pipe that I have had the pleasure of smoking and there is certainly a difference. Maybe I'm just as giddy as a school girl and am giving it more credit than it deserves, I dunno.

But I know I'm loving it.
It's hard to beat a Savinelli for smoking pleasure. One of my earliest pipes was a Savinelli Deluxe bulldog that smoked great but was kind of ugly with fills. Are you partial to the Dublin shape?
