Well, I just got first meerschaum pipe yesterday. It’s a simple apple from France. No case or labels, little rough…but good for a daily driver.
I need to clean it a little more and get a new stem. This ones been chewed through. I ghetto rigged it with some electrical tape for now.
BUT…I must say, I think I like it more than the briar I have. Smoke seems cooler and more flavorful. The stem is clogged or restrictive so I had to relight a few times. Only downside is the bowl seems really big and needs a lot of tobacco. Between the depth and the weak draw, my poor flame couldn’t get down in there.
Side note: Think there was some vintage flake in the bottom…had a real…uh…unique (musty) taste at the end.
