[QUOTE="taharris, post: 359040, member: 2074"] Morta is Oak that has been soaking in a peat bog for several thousand years and has begun the process of fossilization. The tannins in the bog have been adsorbed into the wood turning it black. The longer the wood has soaked in the bog the more black it becomes. After about 4,000 years the wood is completely black. Morta (or Bog Oak) tends to be lighter than Briar, smoke dry and imparts little to no flavor to the tobacco. But, honestly the best thing about Morta is knowing that you are smoking from a piece of a tree that lived so long ago. Todd [/QUOTE]
