I never tried to smoke it by itself, actually I saw it as that little extra which complimented whatever it was added to. Although I smoked it mostly with weeds that had an upper effect, I found that it was more of a head high than something which put me to sleep.
My preference for Gunpowder isn't to smoke it however. It makes a heavenly hot chocolate (although some might consider it a bit expensive for that purpose) which I found one of the most pleasant highs I have ever had. Absolutely killer with a shot of Bailey's, particularly on a cold wet Amsterdam day.
That recipe has me just about drooling - delicious. I think it is important to try new experiences in a safe and comfortable environment and then once you are comfortable with that experience you might be interested in trying new locations.
That's a long-winded way of saying that I would try this perhaps if I was hunkered down for the evening and I slowly sipped this almost as an aperitif. I would make sure it was okay to stay up the rest of the night if I felt inspired or drift off dreamily on a soft bed of cushions.
I think we sometimes forget we are dealing with a plant product and in a similar fashion to other products (prescription drugs, soap,whatever) we can all have different reactions. I am only 160cm - 5foot 3inches tall and 51kg or 110lb - so bigger and taller people can smoke me under the table. In a way, I am lucky, a little goes a long ways.
something about differing milage...
