POSELLA PIPES
Vitaliano Posella's family is steeped in the tradition of briar; his father operated a small briar mill in Calabria, and Vitaliano started out his pipe making career by partnering with his brother-in-law. You may have heard of his brother-in-law; his name is Tonino Jacono. Tonino and Vitaliano worked together for a number of years until Tonino moved to a different town and the brothers-in-law decided to pursue their own respective paths. Tonino, of course, found fame in the USA thanks to McCranie's importing his pipes, but Posella never reached out for distributorship, relying instead on his local market. Then, after a number of years his pipes began to reach a larger audience. The Piperack is pleased and honoured to now be a dealer for these fine pipes, because I think they offer an incredible value for the money and are both distinctive and attractive.
