Need Some Help

[rayje589]

So my dad is pretty addicted to cigs and he lost his second wife to lung cancer... So as I'd like the old man to be around for a while longer I wanted to try and see if he would like pipe smoking. I was going to try him on an aero first but figured it wouldn't have enough nicotine, which I assume is why he still smokes cigarettes. Can anyone recommend a tobacco high in nicotine?

A burley...Carter Hall Or Prince Albert, they're available almost anywhere too

+1.Good choices for starters.

Dunhill Nightcap is very high in nicotine and very high quality, lots of flavor. It'll knock the socks off any cig smoker who craves nicotine. It is available in pretty much any pipe shop or store online, since it is a very well known blend.

Don't forget to encourage puffing his pipe as opposed to inhaling, like he would cigarettes.

The pipe can be fairly formidable when inhaled.

YMMV

Thanks for the recommendations. I do happen to have a spare cob sitting around. I'll probably pick up some Prince Albert as i know the local B&M I usually go to has it.
