Morta Pipes by Davorin Denovic- in the last few years pipes have started to be made of Morta. Morta is petrified bog oak that is between 2,000 - 10,000 years old. Making it older than any briar imaginable. It is very porous., lightweight and smokes incredibly dry and smooth. The making of Morta pipes was, first started by Peterson's of Dublin in the 1930's and again during WWII due to shortages of briar.

The modern Morta pipes was reborn due to the efforts Davorin Denovic in Croatia, Trevor Talbert when he lived in France and Paolo Becker in Italy. Working with Morta is very different than briar and demand the sue of specialized machinery and different techniques. That is why few well known pipe makers who have ventured into this territory have not done as well as with their briar pipes. Morta is different to work with.

Davorin has written an extensive FAQ on Morta pipes as per the link below. The most important question is how does it smoke. Well having been smoking one for the last 3 weeks I can honestly say, i am impressed. Its different than briar but a difference akin to that between Ashton and Castello's. I am not begging the question but all I can say is try one.

Morta Opinion:

" morta pipes... are something like the meerschaum pipes, but not so neutral, are very useful pipes for traveling because you can smoke them many times and they don´t keep the flavor or humidity of the last smoke. They are a little more fragile than briar, but less than meerschaum. Luis B.
