I was thinking the other day just how much sight plays a role in the enjoyment pipe smoking...my mind doesn't half wander when I smoke my pipe!
But really, seeing the smoke in front of you, blowing smoke rings, watching a room fill with slow swirling smoke patterns is so much a part of the experience.
Of course we talk often about taste and tongue bite and nicotine hit, all very important, but when I close my eyes for a few minutes and smoke my pipe like that, its a completely different smoke, all about feel and taste and the sensation of smoke in your mouth and nose...
