MacBaren's Brian Levine said this: "I can confirm that St. Bruno Flake and Ready Rubbed will be available in the USA. It is being brought back in along with Gold Block and Amphora Full & Original. Timing and pricing is not quite settled yet but, I am guessing they will be available by February. These will be the same blends that have been available in Europe for the past eight years. I have smoked them all and can say that there will be something for everyone except you Latakia lovers."

First it was Capstan, then Bengal Slices and J. Cotton, and now Bruno?
What a lovely, lovely life we live!

Glad to hear it. Oddly enough amphora is difficult to find around here so hopefully one of the "Canadian friendly" companies will carry it. Even with shipping and possible border duties it'll still be cheaper than anywhere here I might find it thanks to our wonderful tobacco taxes.

That is great news! Amphora hasn't been available around here for some time now. It used to be one of my favorites, the brown, that is. I look forward to sampling the others you mentioned as well.

Very excited to try St. Bruno. Amphora has a place in my heart as the first pipe tobacco I ever smoked, while up in Canada. Not sure about gold block but if the price is right I'd try that too!
