Product: Newminster No.84 Oriental Pipe Cut Bulk
Bill B. nailed the description well, though I didn't experience any bite to speak of.
I primarily smoke VA's, but I do enjoy orientals, smoking blending oriental straight at times. This is a nice change of pace. The VA takes charge, but the oriental... Read More
leaf is always back there adding a bit of nuance to the smoke. Has a lovely room note. Delicately sweet, with a nice flavor.
Upon receiving it the appearance, texture and dryness made me concerned. I really expected it to burn hot and bite. It did neither. Smoked cool and bite-less all the way to a fine silver ash. A great all day smoke. I haven't played around with it yet, but I imagine it would be a wonderful blender. Something to lighten up a latakia blend that's too heady, or a VA that's too bland. This is something that I will order by the pound in the future. It's just that good.
Thus far I have been very pleased with all of the Newminster bulk tobacco's I have tried. Read Less

Product: Newminster No.84 Oriental Pipe Cut Bulk
Just nice Virginia with a background sour spice. It arrived slightly dry but that's OK. A night in the humi with a moisture puck will straighten it out fine. It smokes nice and it's a perfect break from my other blends. Nothing special. Just good tob... Read More

Newminster Does it Again

Product: Newminster No.84 Oriental Pipe Cut Bulk
I can see this being an all day blend. The aroma is sweet, fragrant, and slightly sour. Not surprisingly, it does burn a little hot due to the cut and natural sugars in virginia and oriental tobacco, but this can be managed by sipping and savouring t... Read More

The golden Virginia stands out. The oriental adds a subtile note. You are smoking a fine Virginia with the oriental a gentle background note. It is a great adjunct blend for Va and VaPer smokers.
RYO by any other name...

I wish I could be more helpful about describing the flavor, but I just can't get past the RYO cut. My best stab is: Tear apart a Camel cigarette, and stuff the tobacco into your bowl.

I just don't know what it is with me and Newminster. I like most of MacBaren's tobaccos, and with their weight behind this brand, Newminster's offerings should appeal to me, right? Not even close: I have tried several of their blends in the past and ... Read More
I have found each one disappointing in one way or another. Still, given my love of Orientals, as well as the very favorable reviews here, I went ahead and ordered 4oz of No. 84. The only good thing I can say about it is that it has a fairly pleasant room note. To me the tobacco tastes more like a cigarette than anything else, and it leaves a harsh and bitter after-taste. Sorry, but no more Newminster for me. Read Less
