Clay Pipes
Clay pipes were one of the first pipes that become popular throughout the world. Other forms came before, but the clay pipe took the taverns by storm. Clay pipes make great tasting pipes because a cake is never formed, after each smoke simply wipe out the bowl and the next smoke tastes brand new. Once a clay gets dirty simply put it in with the wood in a fireplace and it will come out perfectly clean.
