    So settled on a nice savinelli, any tobacco that is preferable for pipe break in?
    Meerschaum (spelling?) Not sure if you know or not, but merschaum isn't a brand of pipe, but rather the type of wood used to make the pipe) - those merschaums look beautiful when they start aging - they start out white and slowly turn yellow over time
    Meershaum is not a wood its a mineral either in bock or pressed for cheaper pipes. Sepiolite is a soft white mineral sometimes found floating on the Black Sea, and rather suggestive of sea-foam (German: Meerschaum ) whence also the French name for the same substance, écume de mer.Meerschaum is opaque and of white, grey or cream color, breaking with a conchoidal or fine earthy fracture, and occasionally fibrous in texture. Meerschaum is a hydrous magnesium silicate having the chemical formula Mg4Si6O15(OH)2·6H2O Im not trying to be a jerk and correct you I just trying to straighten out the facts.
