[QUOTE="ArchaggelosPipes, post: 171408, member: 1991"] The most impostant thing for a good smoking pipe is the briar. Firstly it's the origin of it, Corsica has the best briar, then Greece, Maroco, Italy and at last Spain. Then it's the briar mill, which can make the briar better. And then the briar curing. Air curing is the most common way of curing, the briar must past at least 18 months after boiling. Every year that past the briar is losing its moisture and becomes lighter and absorbs moisture from smoking much better, so it is smoking better, dryer and cooler. There is also the famous Dunhill oil curing, which I know nothing about.... 8) [/QUOTE]
