No other shape screams “English” than the Billiard and this Quintex is a stunning example. The dark walnut stain works perfectly with the polished nickel and black vulcanite mouthpiece. The Quintex system by Dr Plumb makes correct use of the “Stinger condensing” filter and a moisture reservoir.  The long metal stinger condenses the smoke and help keep the moisture contained within the shank. This system produces an extremely dry smoke, keeping the juices from the base of the bowl. The stinger can be removed if you wanted to smoke in a more traditional manner. Fitted with a faux spigot mount which adds a wonderful contrast from the dark bowl and mouthpiece.
