Oregon has joined California, Hawaii, Maine, and New Jersey in raising the minimum age limit for purchasing tobacco and related products to 21:
Oregon is raising the minimum age for buying tobacco and e-cigarettes in the state to 21, bringing its regulations into line with sales of marijuana products.
The new law, signed by Governor Kate Brown on Wednesday and taking effect on Jan. 1, bans under-21s from buying tobacco products and vaping devices, and makes vendors liable for fines for under-age sales.
The current age limit in the state is 18.

Just move closer to the south border, you can still buy a lot of good stuff in Mexico.
Come to think of it, there might be a market for the drug lords to include full-strength tobacco in their wares, so maybe you could buy Mexican or Cuban cigars and cigarettes from the same dealer. :-)
