My favorite Virginia thus far
December 05, 2017
Product: Newminster No.400 Superior Navy Flake Bulk
Guys and gals this is a real bargain. I love it fresh or aged a bit. This is a Virginia that from first light to the last puff is creamy and in the pastry realm. It smells like a bowl of Golden Grahams cereal. I like to fold and stuff for best re... Read More
sults but rubbing out is sublime too. It does have a slight earthy quality but on the sweet side. Sometimes I get a touch of cinnamon, but overall is toasty and bready and doughy. Burns super easy. I love it! Read Less

some, crumbles easily. Very light texture. Little shoe leather after dry and rubbout. Easy for fold and stuff as well leaving a little easy kindling for the top off.]
Some slightly greener (but not green) grass, catfish in the grass on a pond image, burnt matches room note after light (I used a lighter). No golden hay. Sharper when you get it light well and hit hard, almost a fruit kind of taste/feel. Enjoyed most when sipped real tenderly with lazy, slow, retro. Got a slight hint of pine roasting on retro. Little saw dust on the floor image. Milder than Stokkebye LNF. I prefer LNF more often, but love the slightly greener qualities and mildness along with the nuances of sweetness. I think about it more than am able to smoke it, but would smoke it more if I had more for sure. Basically save it for a treat until better stocked. I look forward to it in the rotation and will need to buy pounds of it.
Flavors come out better at just a smolder, veerry slow sip, just barely enough to keep it going on the edge of burnout. Hitting hard produces no more flavor but maybe less.
Burns excellent to a fine ash, no moisture or dottle in bowl at end. ◄7.8/10✠Skulls► Read Less

客观讲，养一段时间后可以抽。而且面对国内价格飞涨的PS，这玩意儿就变得可爱了。至于说味道，出甜可以，甜度挺高的。斗温容易高，而且这草微微刺舌头，从点火到结束，味道是单一的没什么起伏，无惊喜，也不想给什么差评价，毕竟价格摆在这里

拿到手后抽了一斗，第一感觉就像红法（奥利克）比豪海好抽，高级海军P草应该多一些，完全吊出了V草的甜美，而豪海的P草明显不足只有甜味，这款草我喜欢，喜欢红法（奥利克）的朋友可以尝试这款草，相比红法（奥利克）多一些酸味，比豪海的味道层次更多变，尤其是补火后层次更明显，烟气量比豪海和红法（奥利克）要足，价格又便宜，是款神草，过鼻刺激感刚好，如果是新手请别碰这款草和红法（奥利克），否则会想退坑，新手入V建议从牛眼和豪海入手，几乎没有什么刺激感。

这草很甜，没什么特色，但也没啥缺点，好比纯粮小烧，肯定没有调制过的酒的香气，但是天然醇厚味道，老烟枪应该会喜欢，有了就抽没有也不会想的草，可以做口粮

打开袋子立刻就能闻到饼干的香味，就像你儿时常常期许的那样，情不自禁就想放到嘴里吃掉它。收到的草很干，点燃后斗温较高，烟气也保持了饼干的香甜，温和简单让人感到舒适，很满足！

a flake, it packed and rubbed out easily to put a little kindling on top and fired right up. I only had to relight once or twice the whole bowl. It has a sweet grassy aroma, burned dry and cool, and overall was one of the better experiences I've had so far with pipe tobacco. Can't wait to try it again. I did let it dry out for an hour or two before packing and did not get any bite. I'll definitely be ordering this in bulk. Read Less

平淡 清甜 斗温高难控制
August 22, 2022
Product: Newminster No.400 Superior Navy Flake Bulk
生草很好闻，浓郁的奶油果脯的味道。抽起来味道平淡了很多，中段开始出甜，甜度可以。刺激性很大，抽起来嗓子和舌头都有些不太舒服。斗温很高，一旦控制不好就高的离谱。草质感觉一般，除了甜度觉得没啥别的优点了。

Maybe its a Newminster thing, but this bites me right out of the gate. There is a tingling sensation I get with this and the Superior round slices. Nothing like that lovely perique tingle I love. Whatever flavor they add to this just isn't my thing. ... Read More
That said, its not bad. Pretty mild Virginia flake. I Got a couple of ounces. I'll let it sit and see what a year or more does. Definitely nothing I would reach for if if I had PS400 sitting on the shelf. Burns well. And that bite eases off further into the bowl. Moves to a nice bready smoke. THAT I do like, but it's not worth the bite to get there when I have other navy flakes that are delicious from first light to dottle. The flakes are double the length of PS400 or 50g OGS flakes. Beautiful strips. I want to love it, but that bitey top flavor makes it hard. Bag note tipped me off that this would be the case too. Blindfolded, I could pick out Newmisnster from a lineup.

Not great, not complex, but good. Fair level of natural sweetness with typical hay/grass notes. It is certainly worth a try and since you can start with 1 once to sample there is little to lose.

elicious. A full creamy flavor that excites the taste buds. I like the mix of Brazilian Virginias. I've had several blends that use virginias from Africa so I know what that tastes like. The addition of South American Virginians is just the right touch. I like this better than PS Luxury Twist Flake. Both are very good, but the over all flavor profile of #400 is more to what I like. Worth a try for anyone interested Read Less

n a hint of grass.
Mechanically, it rubbed out easily and packed easily. Once lit, it stayed lit to the bottom of the bowl. It smoked cool and dry with volumes of creamy, tasty smoke, and the flavour palate lasted throughout the bowl. It burned down to a fine white ash every time. The wife enjoyed the smell as well, saying it reminded her of chocolate and fruit. I did not notice any cocoa notes, but maybe I will now that I know to look for it. I will definitely buy this blend again, when I can.
I highly recommend this blend to any and all smokers, especially those who enjoy flakes and Virginia blends.

If you enjoy Orlik Golden Sliced this is a great bulk blend to give a go. It's very similar in the light grassy hay like notes and just a bit of the citrusy fruity notes of a typical Va flake. It's an excellent bulk to add to your cellar.

One of a very few straight Virginia offerings, which softens the demise of McClelland tobaccos.
Their 5100 Red CakeVirginia was my mainstay from 1984 till they closed their doors.

A smooth, cool, rich smoke without bite and just the right strength. Sweet with hints of honey and some woodsy undertones. Fantastic! I'll definitely buy another 4oz when I'm done with these slices.
Really solid Virginia

Great grass and hay flavor, easy to smoke, by far my favorite anytime Virginia. I stopped at four stars because I haven't coaxed much complexity of it, but I'm buying a half pound more.

I'm new to pipe smoking. Up until now I have had "aromatics". I tried this because it sounded interesting. The flavors are very interesting, my big take away is this is very refreshing!

This almost reminds me of Wessex yellow label Virginia. Not quite as good but very close. Beautiful floral notes. I’d say the best bulk Virginia you can get.
Very very good

Generally speaking is great，spicy a lot，but theres a smell of yeast。
強いバージニア風味です、少し辛いですけど、アルコールに似た香りがあります。ちょっと試してもいいと思います。入門者はおすすめしない。
味道前段是很容易发甜的感觉，中段有种类似于酵香的感觉，后端的烟气很薄，不是最好的选择但值得尝试。需要好好控制抽吸节奏。

obaccos are solid and if you are looking to cellar a Virginia, this is not a bad option.
Cheers
Well, after a while in the jar this has proved a fantastic result. The sugars have smoothed, the grass has matured and the overall lens has improved significantly.
A great Virginia has developed.
The 400 has a great while of potential yet. I'm hoping it's going to be one of those '10yr +' champions of years to come. At this point it's right on target to get there. The sugar additives are mellowing to add to the caramels of the maturing Virginias and the the base tobaccos are melding to form a fantastic base malt. Just like a fabulous wort!
I'm thinking my bulk purchases over the past few years have paid off.

ish way. I believe Eric Stokkebye came up with the Newminster line when Villager/Stokkebye lost distribution of the Peter Stokkebye blends. STG had bought Lane, so it made sense for them to keep the distribution in house (they already owned the Peter Stokkebye brand). It worked out well for fans of economically priced quality flake tobacco. Anyway, I find this sort of inside baseball industry history fascinating for some reason. I think MacBaren is producing this stuff in Svendborg, currently. Read Less

aroma is marked by a very pleasant and unique note, reminiscent of honey, fresh hay, and a hint of citrus. All of this fancy talk translates to a mild smoke with a noticeable added flavoring, and a very low nicotine content. Speaking of hot, it burns quite cool for a VA flake. It's well-behaved too; I like to rub them to ribbons, but it won't reject to the fold & stuff method. Although it's fairly one-dimensional, it's exceptionally good. The room note is more pleasant than other VA flakes I've smoked around non-smokers. Newminster #400 was my first flake tobacco, and it's a perfect place to start if you've never had a VA flake before. Read Less

This is all in how you pack it and how you control the burn. Once you get the hang of this, it'll be a favorite for the Virginia fan.

keep opening the jar you're trying to ferment, it darkens quite quickly, an indication of smokability.
