The flue cured Virginias are a little grassy with a minor hit of tart and tangy citrus with a touch of earth, wood and honey. They are the lead components. The burley is a little toasty, nutty, woody and earthy with barely any sweetness in an important support role. The black cavendish has a mild sugariness in the background. The rich peach and cream toppings sublimate the tobaccos, though it’s not overbearing in strength. I do notice the tobaccos just a little more in the last third of the smoke. Has very little nicotine. The strength is a step short of the center of mild to medium, while the taste is a step past the center of mild to medium. Burns fairly cool, clean, and creamy smoothly sweet at a reasonable pace with a mostly consistent flavor from top to bottom. Requires only a few relights. Has no dull spots and won’t bite, though a slow pace is recommended. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl. The short lived after taste and room note are very pleasant. An all day smoke.

I'm not sure what possessed me to buy this one, as I don't eat peaches. Maybe the idea of some kind of fruit and cream was appealing?

Well, I'm glad I got it. The bag has a welcoming sweet, powdered sugar citrus thing going on, reminding me of Pixie Sticks and their obviously not all-natural fruit flavoring. The cut felt great with some nice girth, nothing sticky or overly topped, and was satisfy to pack. Fired up great and unleashed a flavor I enjoyed until the end. Never getting too fruity or stomach churning sweet. A milder all day smoke for me.

I think I learned something about myself today. I seem to really enjoy fruit flavored Aromatics based on fruit I don't eat in real life (one of my top 5 favorites is Grand Central flavored with Apricot... I know how gross, but it works).

Newminster - No. 303 Creamy Peaches.

My blend looks a bit coarser than the picture here, and has a strong peachy smell. The mixture has an equal quantity of each colour, and the moisture's good.

In the smoke the Virginia comes across the lightest. The Burley has a rustic flavour, with the black Cavendish softening the smoke. There's lots of peaches, but little actual 'cream'; due to the black Cav' softening the experience Softer Peaches might be a more applicable name than Creamy Peaches! It burns well and doesn't bite.

Nicotine: mild. Room-note: pleasant.

Creamy Peaches? Not a bad smoke, but there's better aromatics available. Two stars:

Somewhat recommended.

I'm not a very experienced pipe smoker, but I really enjoyed this one. The peach flavor was subtle but noticeable, and it was a pleasant change of pace from some of the more common aromatic flavorings. I thought it was more "peachy" rather than syrupy sweet, which I liked.

I dried it out about a half hour before smoking, it burned well with only a couple relights, and it produced a nice fluffy, creamy smoke.

I'll definitely pick up some more of this.

I have to admit, I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to peaches. I’m always looking for true, fresh, tart peach flavor. This tobacco does not have it. It reminds me a lot of Erin go Bragh‘s apple crumble, which has more crumble than apple. This tobacco has more cream than peaches. The cream and peach mixture taste more like, what I recall, mid-1990s peaches and cream Lifesavers swirls. Nonetheless, it had a few real lights required, but it did burn fine, it also did not bite me. Not a bad smoke, but watch out if you’re a peach snob like myself.

The pouch note is mild peaches, icing sugar and vanilla. It has a great room note so your friends will love it. It burns slow and relatively cool with no bite.

As an aromatic it's very pleasant but has very little intensity or flavour. If you want a great aromatic this is an excellent choice.
