Newminster 400 Superior Navy Flake

[saltedplug]

God loves a good, cheap bulk blend!

Well said, sir! Although I made exceptions, principally Escudo, a tobacco that wasn't available in bulk was useless to me. Of course, I balanced that by continuing to buy pipes.

I've never had the Newminster. How does it compare to PS Luxury Navy Flake?

I like it better. More graham cracker than bread if that makes any sense.

Newminster No. 400 Superior Navy is a beautiful affordable smoke with a lovely Danish style topping. Another quality smoke with a Danish style topping is The Cube. Unfortunately, it no longer comes in a wooden cube like it used to.

I feel like it’s topped with honey, maybe. Ember’s graham cracker analogy is spot on. It’s fairly light-bodied in flavor which is just what I crave when it’s hot outside...

707 is rad and I never see any love for it. It fits in that Mac Baren Virginia No. 1/Newinster 400 slot for me and it's cheap.

I like 707 quite a bit.

Maybe @BROBS would compare the two?

Because we like it staying in stock.?

There's a lot of unsung blends for a reason.?

Looks like a cardboard box.

HH Pure is quite bland and a poor successor to HH Mature Virginia. Newminster 400 holds a large section in my cellar and one tin of pure was enough for me.

I agree with embers. Hh pure is for plebs

God, I've been meaning to try this one forever. I have heard it is similar to some of the MacBaren roll cakes? God loves a good, cheap bulk blend!

It taste and smells like graham crackers

You guys make it sound good.

I am really happy with it. I am going to cellar a bunch of it.

Sorry I let the cat out of the bag.

707 is almost like a ready rubbed 400
400 may be a tad sweeter.

I think you would like it. Plus it’s dirt cheap!

I’d have to smoke them side by side to do a better comparison

Don't tell me y'all are going to buy up all the damn Newminster now..

I've got plenty of 707 and some Newminster on the way so I'll try them back to back and see.

I ordered like 4 oz. But if it's good...

It’s an OK tobacco, and reasonably priced.

Buy it all up and throw a monkey wrench in SP’s forecasting...
