Among the Very Best of Aromatics
December 02, 2024
Product: Newminster No. 23 Blackberry Brandy Bulk
Smoked in one of my Scott's Burner billiards with an old small French stummel. Base notes of currents and blackberry; middle notes of vanilla and a bit of citrus peel & honey; top notes of allspice, cinnamon and something herbal... can't place it. I think Chambord was infused in this tobacco. It's a smooth, creamy, sweet and spiced current without any tart or overwhelming artificial sweetness. The room note is softly sweet and pleasant. Silky mouthfeel with absolutely no bite and the finish is clean with a lingering sweetness. Stays lit throughout and provides soft flavor from beginning to end. This really is a quality aromatic that deserves higher ratings. I don't normally like fruit in my pipe, but this has such a complex nuance that I don't consider this 'fruity', just as a don't consider a cordial of Chambord to be a fruit juice. I've been delving into aromatics more and more as I enjoy the simplicity of a light, mono-profile enjoyed while upland hunting or fishing. As I enjoyed No. 23 whilst upland hunting, and again at home in my office, I certainly don't consider this 'simple' or of a mono-profile. This is much more than that. Nicotine is light at around 1 out of 5....Read More

I learned early on as a Tobacco Enthusiast that I did not like aromatic tobacco. Bitter, poor tasting toppings on top of low tier OTC blends. So imagine my surprise when I tried this blend! To be honest I was trying the superior navy flake which is excellent so I felt confident giving the blackberry brandy a try. With the alcoholic part I would call this a “Wineberry” it is a bit sweeter and the berry tartness carries the entire bowl. Let’s be honest this is candy tobacco.. But it is tasty, not bitter, and I admit I do enjoy it. I did buy a new cob just for this blend(and creamy peaches blend which is delish) So I recommend using a dedicated pipe as this is quite the scent bomb. To recap: Sweet, not bitter, full tobacco foundation (must be the burly) and tasty to the end of a bowl. I am the last person on Earth to suggest aromatic blends but here We are… recommend to all Enthusiasts and newcomers alike....Read More

First the tobacco felt grainy, strange, but the smell when open, oh wow! I could taste it unlit through the stem. Lit easily, only two relights, but I was engaged in conversation. The smoke smell of blackberries and turned some heads. NO bite! I recommend it.

Like. Not much else to say about this aro. Behaves well in the pipe. No bite. Nice nutty creamy espresso notes mid bowl to go with the topping.
Perfect condiment.

I adore this Cavendish. It's the perfect cav for sweetening a Virginia. I love to use just a bit in a bowl to punch up a va-per or ad to a burley. The blackberry and brandy is verry present up front but it's not an overwhelming aromatic style flavoring! It's just there and it tastes natural like it's supposed to be there. I often leave it out for 24hrs to dry and smoke it straight and its wonderfull. Its a perfect condiment cavendish and everybody should have 2-4 oz in a jar at home!...Read More

As a beginner this is my favorite blend I've tried so far. I don't think I'm into burleys though, makes my breath smell like cigarettes
