Not much in the way of reviews on TR. STG was the one to carry the baton since they were making all the Dunhill Tobacco's...Possibly they will someday.......

These are probably made by STG, possibly the STG Orlik plant that made the Dunhill blends. Note the "House of Edgeworth" label on the can -- that is a very old, very American brand name owned by STG Lane.
That said, it's unclear whether these Charatan blends will ever come to the U.S. or the continent. The license for the Charatan name appears to be owned by a very small house (https://www.tor-imports.co.uk/pipe-tobacco), who presumably subcontract out to STG for production.

The descriptions of each Charatan/Dunhill match scripted on the Smokeking.com website do sound mouthwatering, even moreso than taste-memory serves, and cellared, of the Dunhill originals. For those of us in the States who desire, there is always a way to acquire.

I checked it out. That's cool these are available. At least, outside the US. However, very expensive. I think the 14.85 pounds converts to almost $20, for 50 grams. But maybe a big chunk of that is VAT. |

Also, points out despite the issues with smoking here in the states that tobacco is still more plentiful and cheaper than England or the continent. Makes me more content with what I have. |

However, I'm pretty sure tobacco stores in Germany will. I can't recommend any stores specifically, though. Bremen Pipe Smoker on YouTube always refers to a shop he frequents in Bremen that will ship oversees. |

For reasons I do not understand, UK tobacconists cannot accept credit card orders from the US for tobacco products.
If you can find another way to pay, you can sometimes place orders over the phone for shipping to the US.
I've had to pay via foreign bank draught before, for a fellow in the Netherlands. Western Union charges a pretty penny for that service.
