    A bartender uses a blowtorch to ignite wooden sticks, creating white smoke. The smoke is then poured into a glass container using a plastic bag, and the flame is directed towards the opening of the container, causing more dense smoke to billow out. The bartender then transfers the smoky mixture to another smaller flask and places the larger flask back onto the counter.
