“When selecting briar pipes, quality of wood and workmanship and the type ofgraining are the prime considerations. Pipes made of dense, straight grain wood… have a tendency to absorb moisturemuch more slowly, which means they will smoke more sweetly and need to berested less often. The bird's–eye, or end grain at the bottom of the bowl of astraight grain pipe absorbs moisture more quickly than other grains.
