Newminster: No. 702 Light Burley Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 005-528-0025

Newminster's No. 702 Light Burley is sure enough just that: lots of light Burley. For those partial to this variety of leaf it may make a fine smoke on its own, while others may appreciate it as a blending (or simply blend-adjusting) component.

Fine solo smoke
August 19, 2023
By: DK Acolyte
Product: Newminster No. 702 Light Burley Bulk
Very nice. Malty, nutty, floral, coffee. A bit of pepper and zest from the white Burley. Grows darker and richer as bowl progresses. Great flavor value here. I noticed its discontinued at SP. Too bad. Great smoke.

It IS a secret to everyone. Graham Cracker, Oak, Cocoa and Honey.

A rubbed out flake with chunks of flake here and there. The flavor profile is brighter than most burley with a round but delicate flavor of graham cracker, a touch of oak, cocoa and a bit of honey. The white burley used has a slight floral and assertive grass/hay nuance. This is a light to medium bodied, fairly clean tasting burley with very little nicotine. Anise is the top note and can be assertive if not allowed to air. To hell with Prince Albert, this is better, I'm convinced this is what Peretti uses. I enjoy their blends and mixtures, and this is a dead ringer for one of their burleys. If you want a Peretti without paying for the cool paint can their blends/mixtures come in, try this. The nicotine is 1 out of 5....Read More

This is really good
July 06, 2021

This is really good. It is a broken flake that I prefer to rub out a bit. It is slightly moist but will burn fine as it is, though I prefer to dry it for about 20 mins. The aroma is of earthy Burley and some cloying sweetness. The flavors are subtle but always present. I get earth, leather and spice up front. There are some notes that a bit sweet but I can't exactly pinpoint what I am tasting so I assume there was a sugar topping on this blend but it is really subtle. Overall, this is great as a mixer but also great as a daily smoke on its own. 5 stars....Read More

IT’S A SECRET TO EVERYBODY
April 21, 2020

Product: Newminster No. 702 Light Burley Bulk
Tastes like Prince Albert but without the chemical lacquer applied to your tongue. If I couldn’t smoke any other tobacco but this one for the rest of my days, I could still die a happy man. If you don’t like it, you don’t like Burley - but let’s keep this a secret, alright? (I'll be honest, I wrote this like 5 years ago before I finished the bag I bought and it started to get nasty to inhale before it was gone. It left funky spots in my lungs, it's hard to explain. I mean, it still tasted good, but the funky feeling wrecked it for me psychologically and I didn't even finish the bag. So I'll need some other smokes for the rest of my days, actually.)...Read More

Medicine Cabinet Aroma
January 27, 2020

Product: Newminster No. 702 Light Burley Bulk
Newminster Light Burley has that talc/mothball/grandmother’s medicine cabinet smell and taste that harkens to Peretti Burley blends. Not a fan at all.

Condiment
March 14, 2017

Product: Newminster No. 702 Light Burley Bulk
Smoked (sipped) this in a small bowl. Despite not having a bite, it does have a distinctive peppery taste and palate feel. The retro-hale also feels "peppery" but is not unpleasant. The flavor was somehow familiar - since this is the first time I have smoked Burly on its own, it's familiarity is likely because it is in blends that I have smoked (thinking Billy Budd, GH Dark Flake Unscented, PS Cube Cut).
I will not attempt to develop a taste for this on it's own; however, I will try blending this as a condiment (very small quantity) to add complexity.


Also, this was relatively mild in the nicotine: no salivating, hiccupping, puking or passing out. I could smoke a small bowl a couple of times a day without leaving mouth sores. Or smoke it all day long as a condiment to other blends....Read More
