Brigham Algonquin 2 Dot #36

The Algonquin is Brigham’s easiest way into a well-made briar, and it’s built for smokers who want quality without paying for extras. Brigham has been a Canadian pipe name since 1906. It grades each pipe with its well-known dot system, and the two brass dots on this stem mark it as a step up from the entry level. The smooth bowl has a rich medium brown stain polished to a soft shine, which shows off the grain without hiding it under a heavy finish. Brigham makes the Algonquin in Italy.

The pipe is shape 36. It has a classic bowl and a gentle bend in the stem, so it sits comfortably in the hand and stays balanced when clenched. Like every Brigham, it uses the Rock Maple Distillator, a reusable maple filter in the stem that soaks up moisture and helps prevent tongue bite without restricting the draw. One comes in the box. It’s a dependable everyday pipe and a great first Brigham at a price that’s easy to justify.
