Peterson used to make some of these and so did dunhill and barling so three of the greats. But that was post transition barling so I guess only two of the greats. Either way. The idea is do make up for a less than ideal piece of briar by lining it with meer or to provide a secondary material that will (if properly maintained by wiping it out and preventing a cake) prevent ghosting from tobacco to tobacco. However as it is meer it is still subject to its ups and downs like not liking cold weather or rain.
