I just finished reading a pretty good article on bowl geometry and how it affects the flavor of the smoke:

I'm using a Cobb now, and have the bent Diplomat and bent Country Gentleman on the way. I was just wondering if anyone that smokes a cob has discovered an aromatic(s) that they feel is accentuated by the geometry of the cob bowl. To me it is simply cylindrical with the bottom being mostly flat.
