W.O. Larsen was a tobacconist in Copenhagen, Denmark, starting in 1864. The shop became known worldwide as their blends made their way outside Denmark. The shop is no longer open, but the W.O. Larsen name is still alive through their popular line of superb pipe tobaccos. If you haven't tried a W.O. Larsen blend, you don't know Danish pipe tobacco. Annually, W.O. Larsen features a Pipe Of The Year, designed and manufactured by Stanwell. These are distinctly Danish styles that are truly spectacular.
