Does anybody else on here think that Frog Morton original tastes like black licorice, or is it just me?

No, but sometimes I think I must be the only guy in North America who can't stand the stuff.
Count me in on that group, too. Love latakia, hate sweetened cavendish.

Perhaps my palate is not as refined as some of you salty dogs, but every time I smoke that blend it always tastes like black licorice, especially during retro hale.

I have never liked the taste of black licorice (FWIW, usually actually anise), but I do like FMO. My tastes only, your tastes may vary...

Never had that experience before...I do however taste pure unadulterated bliss when I do smoke it, it's in my top three blends of all time!

pipenscotch:
Have you ever tried FM with some age on it? I haven't tried the original -- I enjoy OTT and ATP -- but I've got a tin of it that's just been sitting in the cellar for a while.
Just wondering what your -- or anyone else's -- impressions of it might be after a few years. (Well, to be honest, it's been sitting there for 11 years. So it's a 2003 tin.)

No, your not the only one. Then again, I personally can't stomach the taste of anything that contains Latakia.
