Hello,

I normally smoke English blends, but lately I have had a craving for some lightly flavored blends that still retain a true tobacco flavor. I am also looking for something with a higher level of nicotine. I enjoy both the taste of tobacco and the soothing effects of a good dose of nicotine. I know some may feel differently but that's just my preference.

Thanks!

Hmmmm? Let the think ?

My first thought for you doesn’t have much nicotine so I’ll give you two other favorites of mine to consider.

Peterson University Flake
C&D Pegasus

University Flake is Burley and Va lightly topped with a plum/berry flavor. It’s very good leaf and quite tasty. The berry is just perceived. It’s not overdone.

Pegasus? Three burleys: white, cube and dark. Two Virginia’s: Red and Bright and Unsweetened Cavendish for depth. Great tobacco flavor. Consider Pegasus an American English Blend.

Have you tried Wilke Lizzie blood red english?
It is actually one I would highly recommend.
New to it all, so take this FWIW but I agree on the above - also tried some Nording Pointer blend (not widely available unfortunately) that I thought was really smooth. Both recommended from my limited experience.
