Interesting! I feel I’ve been kinda foggy in my head since I quit smoking a year or two before covid and it then got worse with the pandemic. And I’ve felt there’s been more effect from a night out with party smoking than just seeing an old friend. Might need to try my own home grown snuff when it’s done and not just give it away.

Well aged leaf smells amazing. I've often thought about getting into pipe smoking, but my guess is its like coffee, it smells better than it tastes.
I don't smoke cigarettes or pipes, but at least with cigars, it's very easy to get into. You're tasting the smoke in this case, not inhaling it. You'll still get something of a buzz, since there are looooots of entry points into the bloodstream in the mouth, but even for someone like me who's a gigantic baby when it comes to inhaling smoke, it's easy-breezy to enjoy a cigar.

If you like smoked food, you'll love the taste of smoking. Though, I highly recommend limiting it to serious celebrations, for obvious reasons. I generally only have them at weddings.

If it's like coffee, you don't necessarily like it at first.
