The "114" is a chart-perfect example of a generous Italian straight Billiard with a big bowl and roomy chamber, and all the more so in the "KS" size. Each briar of the Tortuga series sports not only a tortoiseshell-patterned stem, but also a domed, shell-like cap with a foam-rubber stopper. The purpose of the latter is to preserve an unfinished smoke which one wishes to pick up again and finish later.
