Does ancient incense produce smoke?

No, in ancient times, incense was burned for tasting, not for smoking. The incense ashes for making fire-proof incense should be carefully prepared. Burn pine branches and fir branches to ashes and raise them with one or two pieces of charcoal fire. The ancients paid attention to burning incense to taste, rather than taking cigarettes. If the smoke is very thick, the fragrance will spread and disappear in an instant. The taste is quiet and the fragrance can last. Be sure to stay away from the fire. The ancients liked to cook tea and burn incense to entertain guests, and pursued the artistic conception of elegance and tranquility. Especially for valuable guests, the host will take out his long-cherished incense to entertain them. However, incense is more popular with scholars than burning incense directly.
