Newminster No. 17 English Luxury is a medium-bodied Latakia blend in which the Cyprian tobacco is supported by fine Virginias, earthy Burleys and a Danish-style black Cavendish which is made from lemon Virginia. It's smooth and flavorful while being a soft-smoking mixture. If you prefer Latakia without added Orientals, you'll enjoy this blend.
I am a Latakia fiend through and through. I have smoked a numbèr of English blends and I find this to be one of the best. A smooth smoking blend, there are wonderful sweet tones that blend perfectly with the Latakia. This is a definite must have.

I'm not a fan of Latakia, but this blend will be a new addition to my rotation. Reminds one of Frog Morton on the Town but a little less sweet with a gentle body and silky white smoke. Every element works in harmony, while a slight pepper note rounds things off. Non-Latakia and non-aromatic fans will love this blend.

One of my favourite, go-to English blends. It has a decent body, produces a fairly sizable cloud of smoke, has a mild, but present none-the-less room note, and is damn cheap! I sometimes add a pinch of blending latakia to individual bowls just to kick it a bit, and it takes to that very nicely as well.
