Perhaps, I’m not a clay fan at all, don’t like the feel of it on my lips even when waxed. I also found that if they’re ghosted you can’t get rid of the taste. I have a Goede Wagon clay that was treated with a bowl cleaner and even the heaviest English blends can’t remove the taste of it.@Birddog66 That 1820 Flake sounds like a good clay pipe baccy...

@cigrmaster I enjoyed the Old Dark Fired in my clay pipe.
