I've tried Royal Yacht but wasn't THAT impressed with the "flavor" but the nic hit definitely satisfied that occasional craving. I'm interested in the choices of those more seasoned than I regarding tobaccos that you consider to have a strong nicotine content with great flavor...thanks!

Yep, OJK is a good one and so is another C&D tobacco, Big-n-Burley. Pretty strong nicotine wise.

I am a big fan of these two. In terms of the flavor, it depends on what you like. I like Orientals and perique. I am a fan of DFK. You find combinations of these that are quite good. Picayune is smoke I like. The various ropes are a little strong in the nicotine dept. for some people but very tasty. ODF is great smoke you might like to try. Kendal Kentucky is very good.Kevin Keith wrote: ↑Fri Sep 07, 2018 11:40 pm Yep, OJK is a good one and so is another C&D tobacco, Big-n-Burley. Pretty strong nicotine wise.

I have to agree with Fr_Tom. I conclude that HH ODF and Kendal Kentucky are pretty heavy in nicotine to go with their flavor because I don't feel like smoking for a while after I smoke them. Kendal Kentucky and Kendal Dark are find tasting tobaccos but their shag cut makes them burn like a hay rick hit by lightning.

Kendal Kentucky is a nice blend, 3P's is tasty with a touch of nic, Ennerdale and Coniston both have a decent bit of it too. Ropes and twists are always good for nicotine.

Low Country Natural Virginia and Burley is in this camp too. "Tasty and strong all day long" ...I should write jingles!

What? No Five Brothers fans out there? That stuff makes my socks roll up and down. +1 on @Kevin Keith's Low Country. I like the flavor of that way better than 5 Bros, too.

Thanks all for your input! I think the best way forward is to buy tins or samples (no 5 pounders and try 'em all...I've got some shopping to do!
