Frog Morton discontinued
The Country Squire blend is called 'Shepherd's Pie'. It's the closest blend to FM that I've found. First blend to scratch that FM itch since I've been looking for a replacement. https://www.thecountrysquireonline.com/product/shepherds-pie-full-english-oriental/- fuel52

Frog Mortons Cellar
I may have found a solid match... I've tried Rattray's Bagpiper's Dream, Esoterica Pembroke, lots of other English blends that have a bit of a Whiskey note and none are what I would consider as a proper replacement to FMC. However, The Country Squire has a new blend called 'Shepherd's Pie', it...- fuel52

McClelland Frog Matches?
Do you really need to start with McClelland's processed components to make a matching blend? That's the point of a match, isn't it? Creating a similar tasting tobacco using what's available to another manufacturer.- fuel52

McClelland Frog Matches?
This is a tough one to match. The closest from what I can tell is Esoterica's Pembroke. I also hear Rattray's Bagpiper's Dream is kinda similar, though I haven't tried yet. Would anyone care to wager as to if another manufacturer may try to put out a match of this? Would be awesome if...- fuel52

Aromatic Vs. Non-Aromatic Tobacco
The question may be...of all pipe smokers past the beginner stage (6 months to a year?) what is the ratio/percentage of Aros to Non-Aeros? Is it more like 60/40 non-aeros after that beginner stage? I think this would speak more to why people don't discuss the aeros because non-beginners are...- fuel52

Aromatic Vs. Non-Aromatic Tobacco
If non-aromatics are truly a better smoke, why don't shops push them more to beginners instead of the stuff that's going to burn their tongues and taste like candlewax?- fuel52

Aromatic Vs. Non-Aromatic Tobacco
My intention is not to start a war. I simply would like some insight on this subject. I'm only 2 months into the pipe smoking hobby. Like most beginners, I smoke aromatics. I'm enjoying myself smoking aromatics and I believe eventually I'll get to non-aromatic blends. Now to my question...- fuel52
