That missing 'L'. One of the contradictions of #branding is the task of #naming. In this case, the generic term 'illegal' gains repercussion and value when it is written in the form 'ILEGAL', followed by its virtue of market dominance. Therefore, it is legal and cool to be "Illegal" under such circunstances. #bacardi #mezcal #hopscouters #globalbrandstokens #beverages #drinks https://lnkd.in/gEFxUrYN

New product: Vauen 3901 Smooth Straight Brandy Estate Briar Pipe, Unsmoked, 9mm Vauen stems from Germany’s oldest tobacco pipe manufacturing company, tracing its roots back to the founding partnership of Karl Ellenberger and Carl August Ziener in Nuremberg, 1848. Out of the Ellenberger-Ziener partnership soon came the Vauen make itself, which grew to become Germany’s largest and most enduring pipe brand – a title that it continues to hold to this day. While Vauen today is known for its unorthodox and experimental designs and finishes, the make does produce traditionally-inclined pipes, and did so especially in past decades. This Vauen is a very traditional brandy, with the only notable difference between it and other English or French brandies being its slightly thicker stem, build to accommodate 9mm filters. It’s so traditional, in fact, that it has a nice, beveled rim, just like the pipes of old. On a last note, this Vauen is far lighter than most I’ve handled, at around 40 grams. Veteran smokers may find it clenchable, but even if not, it is an easy pipe to handle and to transport, if the occasion requires. This pipe is completely unsmoked, with an original bowl coating to help with the break-in process. It also comes with its original box and sleeve. The pipe is chambered for 9mm filters, such as Vauen’s own, as standard, but can be smoked without, and may accommodate an adapter of some variety for non-filtered use.   Details: Length: 5.5″ / 139.7mm Bowl Width: 0.74 / 18.79mm Bowl Depth: 1.36″ / 34.54mm Weight: 1.4oz / 40g 👉🏽👉🏽Pipe Link: https://nuel.ink/ElrFVg #pipesmoking #pipes #tobaccopipe #pipesmoker #pipetobacco #tobacco #smokingpipe #briarpipe #briar #smoking #pipemaker #pipecollector #artisanpipes #mbsd
