Dunhill Tips

Your Dunhill is a product of nature and the highly specialised skills of chosen craftsman. Each pipe is fashioned from the finest quality briar and undergoes more then 90 separate processes, spread over several months. Every stage of production is strictly supervised and from this blend of care and expertise comes the finest pipe in the world - Your Dunhill

Your new Dunhill should smoke sweet from the start, However, great care should be taken to avoid overheating the bowl until a protective carbon layer has formed.
Smoked a new pipe quickly, out of doors or in a draught, will usually cause overheatng.

Even the most seasoned briar tends to expand and contract in response to its moisture content, and an excessice carbon layer can lead to the bowl splitting.
Therefore the carbon should be maintained at approximately 1/16" thick by using a adjustable carbon cutter. Never use a penknife or pointed implement which may pierce the bottom of the bowl.

Your pipe should be cleaned of liquid desposits before it becomes foul and "gummy". Regular use of a dry, chenile pipe cleaner will help keep your pipe sweet and clean. However, if a more thorough cleaning is required, moisten the end of the pipe cleaner in spirit or special pipe cleaner lotion to dissolve the tobacco deposits.

Broken mouthpiece pegs and split stems often result from trying to remove a tight mouthpiece from a warm pipe or by knocking out a pipe an a hard surface. To avoid this, hold the briar stem and knock the cool bowl against the palm of the hand.
Loose mouthpieces are often caused by high moisture content of the briar, caused by "wet" smoking and can be best avoided by using a pipe cleaner after every smoke.
