[QUOTE="Boulder, post: 171400, member: 1931"] [b] I can understand that an old forest wood is harder/denser and may burn cooler/longer and make it a collectable, but at some point the maintenance and carbon/cake of the pipe must play a more important role in taste. As I see it the tobacco cooks/burns on the carbon/cake and not the wood. This is a reason a properly maintained meerschaum pipe is considered a preferable pipe for upscale tobacco because it does not rely on as many factors. Don't get me wrong as I luv my flake in a nice heavy briar.[/b] [/QUOTE]
