The Flattened Frog Project

[saintpeter]

The Flattened Frog Project. A low key, six month adventure. The idea is to take some good, sweet Virginas and some decent quality Latakia and combine them. Now I have an oak spiral that has been soaking in a good single malt for a month. (Actually twice as long as recommended to get all the goodness out of the little 2 1/2 inch spiral.) The infused charred oak is sun dried (gotta love Arizona) for 48 hours then placed in the middle of about 6 - 8 ounces of the tobacco in an air tight container and forgot about for six months.

Maybe it will be a molded mess in July. Maybe too weak or too strong. Or maybe - in the words of Goldilocks - this one is just right. Time will tell, but it will get smoked no matter what. (Barring mold of course.)

Sounds awesome. I'm not getting the flattened frog reference though. Are you trying to recreate Frog Morton?

Nope. I've tried so many times to recreate F.M. that I do not even remember what the actual Frog Morton tastes like. This project is what happens when you are old, decrepit, too much time on your hands and left to play unattended.

Even if you're not trying to recreate some Frog Morton, I say just throw some whiskey in there for good measure. Can't hurt.
