[QUOTE="Winslow, post: 84472, member: 267"] I have about 20 meers from the top carvers....and about 30 briars,mostly mid-grades ..Ardor,Radice,Peterson.I smoke them all in my haphazard rotation.There is a subtle difference in taste with some of the standard high grade tobaccos between briar and meer with briar giving me a sweeter taste to my beloved Virginias.In a blind taste test I don't know if I could tell the difference.Reminds me of the old commercials of Coca-cola vs. Pepsi. I do believe it's all in the juice you taste from the smoke stream and that's why a pipe with a straight airway from bowl to mouth does the best.The gourd and wooden calabashes don't deliver taste wise against a straight billiard. I do not smoke Walnut because I only have a limited time on this Earth and prefer to smoke 1st class tobacco in my declining years. :lol: Winslow :sunny: [/QUOTE]
