Royal Castle (Hardcastle) 175 Billiard Estate Pipe

It's anybody's guess how a well known English maker like Hardcastle has a sub-brand that came to be produced in Denmark, but we can't find any other reference for Royal Castle anywhere.  Our reference material may be out of date and this is a newer Danish brand, but either way, this tall, smooth, and tapered straight billiard has a perfect sized chamber for any blend and a smooth, open draw that any paced smoker will enjoy.  Wide in the button to be comfortable and light enough to keep clenched throughout the bowl, this sweet-spot sized chamber won't suffer any smoking qualities from the darkened rim.
