It wasn't my first but today I truly had a memorable smoke. We went driving to try to find a trail to walk our dogs on. The wife has a new vehicle, that she smokes in but I hadn't smoked my pipe in it yet.
We got to the trail, got the dogs out of the car, and I lit my pipe. Well the trail did not allow dogs, so we turned around and put the dogs back in the car. I reluctantly kept my pipe going while I sat in, waiting for the wife to say something. I tried my best to make it smoke as little as possible, hoping she would not complain. ( I know, cigs smell worse etc etc, but you never know)
During our ten minute ride to the next trail, puffing very lightly (very unlike me) the smoke was amazing. Flavors of a blend I smoke daily, came out, that I never witnessed before. It was so sweet and I didn't want it to end. The pipe took me almost 45 minutes, which is long for me. Nothing but Ash left. Best smoke to date.
I always hear about smoking slow, and I always tell the new guys to do it too, but never do it myself.
And now I truly understand. Ha!
