I opened my first tin of Frog Morton Cellar and found a cube of wood about an inch thick buried inside the tobacco, one side of the cube is burnt. The description says "aged with stave cubes cut from barrels used to mature and flavor Frog Morton's own special whiskeys," but I was wondering if its common to find these cubes in this blend? Would it affect the tobacco in any way?
Frog Morton Cellar, Is This Normal?

It's totally normal. They're "supposed" to add flavor to the tobacco while its tinned. But they're pretty much just for show. Frog Morton Cellar is my favorite of the Frogs.
That big block is a bitch to cube cut and it tastes like shit when you smoke it. Worst plug tobacco I have ever tried.
Peck I pop it in my mouth and chew on it like a breath mint, when I kiss PMon he gives me a nasty look.
