Question

Some of my favorite childhood memories wwere lighting my grandfathers pipe. He died just over a year ago and I smelled his tobacco the other day. Any suggestions where I could buy some of his tobacco? It is Ampora Brown Pipe tobacco. Thanks for all your help!

Answer 1

Sorry, mate.... Dowe's of London decided that the American marketplace was not profitable where tobacco was concerned and stopped importing to us.

I was a pipe smoker, as were my dad, grandfathers, and great grandfathers before me, and after trying to find a domestic or import of equal taste, gave up.

Scandinavic is close, but like sorbitol for sugar, it ain't the same.

I too miss the smell of the stuff... it takes me back to a simpler, more gentle time of life that has fled screaming into the darkness.

I can only offer my condolences for your loss of both grandpa and the smell of Amphora brown.
