Djarum Black

A federal law passed in the United States in 2009 made it illegal for tobacco shops and stores to carry cigarettes that contain flavors other than menthol. The law affects the Djarum Black cigarette brand and has made it unavailable for purchase within the United States.^[2][3][4]

Now to sell any type of kretek in the US it must be classified as a cigar, i.e. wrapped in tobacco leaf rather than paper. The current Djarum Black cloves are now rolled in tobacco paper. As of 2010, in the United States Djarum Blacks are available again in smaller 12-pack cigars, which are much thicker than the cigarettes that come in 20 packs.^{[citation needed]}

Alongside their home market of Indonesia, Djarum Black cigarettes were or still are sold in the following countries Brazil, United Kingdom, Austria, Poland, India and Canada.^[5][6][7][8]
