A Lost Frog, in the Cellar.

[freakiefrog]

So going through all my old tins of baccy tonight I came across a rare jewel I'd imagine. So back when I first got started the way I kept up with which cigars or Pipe tobacco I like was to keep the tin or the cigar ring. So I started trying to get them organized on excel well in going through my tins as I picked one up I thought HMMM that's awful heavy. Much to my surprise.. I find this.

Well then, happy day.

Yep totally un-opened going to save this on for a good long weekend bowl..I really can't wait.

 

[smeigs]

great find! Frog morton is by far my favorite tobacco. Enjoy it!

 

[gwtwdbss]

Awesome, you gonna crack it open soon?

 

[freakiefrog]

@gwtwdbss Yea I think this weekend I'm going to break it out and see if like I heard on the pod cast talking about cellaring tobacco, I'm curious to see if the flavors have melded together..

 

[gwtwdbss]

Sounds great. Enjoy!

Congratulations! It's always fun to discover some long-overlooked tin.
But, um, you might want to consider just keeping a database of all the blends you've tried, instead of collecting tins. (I keep a database of what's in the cellar, what's open, and what I've tried. I also keep a handwritten book of tasting notes/reviews.)
If I kept a tin of every blend I liked, I'd need a closet as big as my wife's.

@rmbitner yea that's what I was in the process of doing, thank you Google Documents, when I ran across this. I'm fairly ocd so I might also keep track of things like bulk weights and total tin weight. So I know when I need to buy and cellar some more bulk..

 

[freakiefrog]

Ok so I couldn't stand it.. I popped it open tonight and I must say.. I wont be smoking Frog Morton unless it's been aged again if I can help it. The flavors were very smooth and tasty!

 

[freakiefrog]

@rothnh it wall totally smooth, there was little to no after taste and it burned very cool and slow..

 

[fitzy]

Damn. I wish I could afford to cellar more tobacco. Most of what I have is opened but put into mason jars.

 

[freakiefrog]

@fitzy Me too. This was a lucky happy stance. But I think I'm going to go and do what Brian said and for every one I buy to smoke I'm going to buy two to cellar. I'm going to let them age for atleast a year or two before they get opened..

 

[kcghost]

Yeah, aged Frog is awfully good stuff.

While we are on the subject of frogs, I would like to request that you gentlemen (youse guys) stop calling me Froggy. My pseudonym on this site is Foggy, not Froggy. You know, from sitting in a cloud of smoke?

 

[instymp]

Foggy, but bet you are still froggy.
