Newminster 400 Is Only Budget By Price

[puff_not_snuff]

If Newminster 400 was in a tin and sold under another brand I’m pretty sure people would clamor to buy it at 15$ a pop.

totally agree. I'm particularly fond of this with some coffee at the beginning of the day. that said, i might have some for the last bowl of the day, today.

I feel like it’s an “all day blend” given the price but every time I smoke it, it feels like a special occasion.

YOU are the KING of pipe tobacco / junk food (considering some eat Play Doh) associations.

How does it stack up to Peter Stokkebye Luxury navy flake?

I find it to be “next level”...

PS Navy Flake has a hint of perique and a subtle sweetness whereas 400 has no perique and a bit more prominent sweetness.

I do like food.

I don't think it is the king of Virginia's but it is very good and a great value. I have three pounds Jarred, may buy another pound or two. Why not, its a bargain?

@hoosierpipeguy name your king.

 

[puff_not_snuff]

I would call it the Cohiba of Virginia’s. Fidel Castro, if you must...

BROBS,
Can you compare Stokton to Newminster 403 Sliced?

@hoosierpipeguy name your king.

For milder Virginia Flakes, I like Vauen No 14, CVP, Wessex Gold Slice and Gold Virginia Flake, Hamborger Veermaster and OGS.

It quite possibly is a tinned tobacco sold under a different name.

It would be hard to hide if that were true. It's aroma is pretty distinctive.
