Few pipes have earned the reputation of a Missouri Meerschaum. They've been a favourite of pipe smokers for well over a century, proving that simple materials, carefully crafted, can deliver an outstanding smoke.

The Country Gentleman Straight offers one of the company's most refined interpretations of the classic corn cob pipe. Its darker finish gives it a richer, more traditional appearance than the familiar natural cob, while still displaying the distinctive texture that makes these pipes instantly recognisable. Paired with a smooth hardwood shank and comfortable black stem, it has a smart, understated look that feels equally at home in the garden, workshop or favourite armchair.

Corn cob pipes have become legendary for their cool, dry smoking qualities. The cob naturally absorbs excess moisture, helping to produce a remarkably clean smoke with very little fuss. They're equally at home with Virginias, Burleys, aromatics or English blends, making them an excellent everyday companion or a dedicated pipe for a favourite tobacco.

Missouri Meerschaum traces its roots back to 1869 when Dutch immigrant Henry Tibbe discovered that Missouri's famous corn cobs could be transformed into remarkably capable tobacco pipes. More than 150 years later, the company still produces its pipes in Washington, Missouri, remaining the world's oldest and largest manufacturer of genuine corn cob pipes.

The Country Gentleman has become one of the firm's best-loved models, combining traditional American craftsmanship with practical performance that's difficult to match at the price.
