    What is the Most Muscular Straight Burley Sold Today?

    I was going to add Semois, Stirling Flake, HH Bold Kentucky or Kendall Kentucky. But others have already recommended them. Easily obtained is GLP Jack Knife Plug...super tasty.

    Do You Associate Pipe Smoking with a Sense of Spirituality?

    Pipe Shapes

    I think I am headed in your direction if you mean 40g and less straight pipes; in addition to clenching, another great thing about straight pipes is the ease of maintenance and how smoothly they will pass a cleaner.
