Re: Meer lined briars. Gimicky or legit?
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.
