More Cult BRM in my Bones.
Ive smoked this pipe almost daily for the last couple weeks....maybe 12 times. I am surprised how quickly it is coloring. Here are pictures from the first smoke and today's smoke. Sitting in the same place, with the same sweatpants.

Yes, all briar will color over time.I believe all briar will color.
The old Algerian briar of 70 years ago just colored much faster.
Smoked maybe six times.
