Smoking Pipe Materials
The most common materials used for crafting smoking pipes are wood, briar, corn cob, and clay. These materials offer different characteristics that influence the smoking experience. Wood is highly popular for its heat resistance and ability to absorb tobacco moisture, enhancing the flavor.
