The Roscoe | Engraved Bulldog Saddle Stem Smoking Pipe | 5.5”
Originally bred for their bullfighting abilities, bulldogs have been recognized as an official breed since the late 19th century. However, the noble canines have changed dramatically over the years. The once spry and athletic breed has evolved into the stout and lovable pups we know today.
When you take home The Roscoe, be sure to pay homage to the plucky pets who made it out of the bullring and into our hearts. Made from quality cherry wood, this bulldog style pipe features an engraved abstract design and the diamond-shaped shank & stem which defines the bulldog style. Perfect for lovers, fighters, and classic smokers.

Use & Care
Follow these guidelines to get the most from your Shire Pipe.
Packing
Pack your chosen cut firmly, and aim for a moderate amount of airflow - not too tightly, not too losely. You can check this by taking a few test puffs before lighting.
Lighting
Using a circular motion, carefully apply a flame over the entire surface of the material in the pipe bowl, drawing gently on the mouthpiece. Tamp down, and re-light.
Smoking
Take your time. Puff gently - inhaling fully is not necessary.
Cleaning
Tap or gently scrape out the bowl immediately after use. Clean your pipe frequently for the best flavor experience.
Over time, a carbon deposit ("cake") will build up inside the bowl. Do not allow this layer to get thicker than 1/16" (2mm), as it could damage the bowl. Use the provided poker multi-tool to gently remove any excess carbon.
Use the included pipe cleaners to clear any build-up from the stem. Use isopropyl alcohol - not water - on a cotton swab to deal with particularly stubborn tar. Unless you are displaying it, store your pipe with the bowl facing down to allow any excess moisture to evaporate.
