Peterson Sherlock Holmes Series Rusticated Quite simply the most popular pipe series that Peterson have ever produced. The Peterson Sherlock Holmes series was introduced in 1987 as a 7 day smokers set in honour of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous detective series and captured the hearts of Peterson fanatics worldwide. You will be very hard pressed to find a full 7 day set as the pipes are so hard to source due to their popularity. Peterson simply can’t get enough high grade briar blocks to produce enough of these pipes to satisfy the high demand. They are Extra Large high grade pipes named after famous elements in the Sherlock Holmes novel. The popularity of the Christmas 2021 sherlocks means they have now release the rusticated as a standard line they are given a deep red stain before being given the classic Peterson rustication finish and then topped off with a sterling silver band and Aluminium embedded P on the mouthpiece which you only see on their high grade pipes.
Peterson System Peterson System: A patented system, which naturally removes tar and moisture from the smoke without restricting the draw. Resulting in a very smooth and dry smoke. We have recommended Petersons to many wet smokers have have returned delighted with the difference.
P.Lip mouthpiece: The Pl.ip is a unique mouthpiece designed to greatly enhance the smokers experience. The lip is shaped to fit the mouth more comfortably with the tongue pressed under the lip. The smoke exits on the top of the lip, which significantly reduces tongue bite from even the most bitter smoking tobacco's.
9mm Absorbent Filter The Peterson Sherlock Filtered pipes are designed for use with the any 9mm absorbent stem filters. The larger diameter allows more smoke to pass through the filter, with less restriction, which makes for a better draw compared to the 6mm filters. The highly absorbent filters have a very high surface area resulting in excellent absorption of the tar as the smoke passes through without affecting draw or flavour. The pipes have a standard 9mm bore so can be used with any brand of 9mm filter if preferred. Alternatively the filter can be removed all together for smokers who prefer a totally un-restricted full on smoke.
