Hi fellows,
as I am located in Europe, I am always looking for opportunities to find any American blends. So far, the only way, I found, is ordering directly from America or Switzerland, which harbors the danger of high customs, taxes etc. In addition to that, eBay seems to have its enforcement of their rules tightened lately and is deleting many tobacco offerings with the result, that there are not many tobacco rarities to be found on our side of the pond.
For all the Europeans, who are hunting for rare US tobaccos, I recently found a great opportunity, when I checked the website of UK pipe maker Larrysson Pipes and discovered, that he has a great selection of American Tobaccos for sale and especially lots of vintage McClelland stuff, which is quite a unique assortment in the EU. As far as I know, this shop is probably the only vendor of vintage US tobaccos here...
I hope this discovery will be helpful for any McClelland heads on this side of the pond!
