I was wondering what is the most you can order into Canada (Saskatchewan) before you'll run into issues with Customs?

Also, I was looking at grabbing the following to get close to a Canadian cigarette like Export A. Am I missing anything?
-Canadian Flue Cured Lemon
-Flue cured Red
-Flue Cured Bright

And what is the difference between "hand tied" and regular?

Thanks in advance!

In Canada they say max 3 kg per order and 15 kg per year and I stick to it as a pipe smoker I don't need more than this anyway. There are a lot of people that don't stick to this.
The hand tied and the regular are very similar, with the hand tied I got a few leaves in the centre of the bundle that needed trimming. They are both worth trying I only buy the regular now.
The red is so good but these are all good.

I just ordered 12 pounds and almost 14 pounds. Canadians unless they are living in Ontario can get 15kgs a year

Export A is a little red mixed in with lemon. Players is more complex but the handtied mixed in with lemon and red with first priming

For a players blend you need to have Virginia. Listings are in percentages 10 first priming 10 double bright red 60 Canadian 20 of Bigs

I had something removed Players as a kid always came in the package as a blend of 7 of the Finest Virginian Tobaccos.
