Bruto Sordini started making pipes when he was twenty years of age. He started as an apprentice to an old village pipe maker who taught him the secrets of a good hand made pipe. Prior to the founding of the Don Carlos company, Bruto had joined in a pipe making partnership with a friend, but later set out on his own. Seven years ago, Don Carlos was founded. Bruto is a great lover of classical music, especially operas, and which is why he chose the name of a famous opera character for his company. His pipes come in three finishes: smooth natural, rusticated (including semi-rusticated), and straight grain.
Bruto uses musical notes to grade his pipes; he stamps one, two or three notes on his pipes to denote the finish and the grain, with a three-note pipe being the highest within each group. The high reputation of Don Carlos pipes in the entire world is the tangible proof of their quality.
