Not a bad English
July 04, 2018
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
This is an average example of an English mixture. Nothing extra special, but tasty. It did improve halfway down the bowl. It burns well and is somewhat satisfying. Worth the try, but not a regular in my routine.
A Bully English-Burley Blend
November 30, 2022
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
My preference is for English blends that include burley tobaccos. This blend fit the bill perfectly. My first bowl in a cob pipe was very enjoyable. I have enjoyed other Newminster English blends, and others like English Luxury, and Proper English. I... Read More
must say that this surpasses those other blends in terms of taste. The "tin note" or "bag note" is alluring. It smells fantastic!
Luxus has a full body, and, perhaps, even a heavy taste, which I like. There is a harmony among the ingredients, without any one type dominating, but with each detectable in the character it adds. This a wonderful find! Read Less
The right Mixture
December 28, 2018
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I have just smoked a bowl of this beautiful tobacco in a meerschaum. A soft, tasty tobacco and a delicious room aroma. No tongue bites. It is a typical English blend. The Latakia is not dominant. A right mixture of quality tobaccos. Thanks Newminster... Read More

Lucius Luxus

Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
This was my first foray into Newminster's tobacco. I have to say it was a nice one. I consider this a Scottish blend (Has Black Cavendish) and when you have Latakia, Virginias, and Black Canvendish, you have my attention. Blend them right, and you ha... Read More
ve my attention for now on. No 17 English Luxus has achieved that with this smooth, slow-burning endeavor. I found the room note please (for an English Blend), and the taste was amazing. I will be ordering more of this. Read Less
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I enjoy a lot of English cross-over blends and this one rates right up there with the best of them. This seems to be an exact duplicate of Lane's HGL (which I also enjoy). The Latakia is perfectly applied, not to strong and melds nicely with the cons... Read More

Terrible
October 07, 2016
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
Ok, so I've never smoked an English blend before this one, but still it begs the question: How can anyone smoke this stuff? Maybe it's just too strong for a newbie to English? Yeah, I definitely will not buy any more of this.
A Good Second Try
May 01, 2016
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I reordered a year later 1/2 pound of this fine English Blend. This time I noticed a plum topping which I think it didn't have a year ago. Although its smoke doesn't taste what the tobacco smells, it can get annoying if you're not a big fan of aromat... Read More
ics. Every time I open its jar I cringe a little but it delivers a fine smoke. Read Less
Not cured too well.
August 18, 2015
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I didn't enjoy this smoke at all. It has a taste if what seemed like "recycled" and coated tobacco. It was not flu-cured sufficiently.. I actually became violently ill as a direct result. Maybe a batch of the same in future would be more promising.
Great blend

Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I received a sample with one of my orders and I loved it. I enjoyed the smooth smoke. I am a Latakia lover and there is a perfect amount. Moisture level is perfect for immediate smoke. I ordered a 1/2 pound I liked it so much. Zero tongue bite. Beau... Read More

Very user friendly, straight forward honest taste. I would consider this a basic English, surprised it's not more expensive. Burns even and slow stay's lit well and each draw has the same flavor.. worth the buck try some
A Great English Blend
January 06, 2015
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I've had 2-3 bowls from the 8 oz bag I got today and I can say that it's going to be a good month with this order. Great English blend with a good taste of Virginia/Burley leaf taste. Only disapointment is no Oriental leaf in this blend as I like its... Read More

Best Latakia+Burley
September 02, 2013
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
Very nutty, very delicious, very stable flavor. Easy burn and little moisture. I love it! The quality is far beyond the price should provide.
Good English
December 22, 2012
Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
I love this stuff. Easily compatible with more expensive englishes. Best for the buck. Maintains it's characteristics throughout the entire bowl. The only reason it didn't get a full 5 stars is because of it's tendency to stink up the room and le... Read More
ave a ghost in your pipe, but ghosts and stink are to be expected from most englishes. The flavor is fantastic! Read Less
English Luxus

Product: Newminster No.17 English Luxus Bulk
English Luxus is a pleasure to smoke. Pack tight and it is a delight to smoke. Smokes cool and a lot of flavor. It does not get stronger as you smoke it.
