The Country Gentleman boasts a barrel bowl with a smooth black and natural look. This fairly large pipes houses a generous chamber, filled with a hardwood plug at the base. The straight black stem houses an optional 6mm (included), but can also be used without the filter. A very popular shape in the Missouri Meerschaum range. 

Corn cobs have a slightly bad reputation, they are seen as the disposable pipe. A cheap alternative to briar and therefore inferior too, but thats not fair at all. The Missouri Meerschaum pipes are made by hand, using specifically bread corn. The porous husk allows for a dryer smoke, absorbing the moisture and like Clay & Meerschaum smokes very cool. Unlike Briar and other wooden pipes, a carbon cake is not required. The first few smokes have a sweet, nutty taste but after that the pipe holds no background flavours and always gives a pure taste to the tobacco. Many blenders (our self's included) use Missouri Meerschaum Corn Cob pipes to sample blends, for the neutral taste.
