[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 54983"] Not to disparage meer-lined briars, but these were generally not the top of the line pipes that any top shelf company turned out. The further down the food chain you got, the more likely it was that a company would be using briar that wasn't all that well cured, and consequently tasted pretty bad until it was smoked in over months of use. Meerschaum lining was an ideal solution to the problem of a new pipe tasting like a new, green pipe. This may not have been the whole story, but it was one aspect of it. Bottom line : a good smoking/tasting pipe is a good pipe, period. :face: [/QUOTE]
