William “Ashton” Taylor's pipe career began in the young age of 15 as an apprentice in the famous company of Dunhill, London. After years of learning the secrets of pipe making from the masters of Dunhill, he founded the company of Ashton in the 80s and named it after him. The Style of his pipes is classic, British and elegant. Stunning are not only the beauty his pipes, but the inner values as well. Thanks to a special treatment of the briar, the so called oil-curing, Ashton pipes taste especially well. The stem was made of a material that has got the great soft bite-properties of Ebonite, but still has got the easy maintenance of acrylic. Because this material is quite unique, the smokers gave it the name “Ashtonite” . Both the oil-curing and the Ashtonite are secrets of the company of Ashton to this day.
The traditions, techniques and abilities have been handed down by Ashton himself to William Taylor and Jimmy Craig, who contiued his legacy after Ashton's death in 2009.
