Yasus
I will probably be in Athens in about a week with a friend, if I can't come my friend certainly will.
What I wanna ask is if I can find good pipe tobacco in Athens? Maybe a place to buy bulk tobacco? Selection is really limited in Turkey; some aromatics and 2 Turkish blends only. Do Greece have good pipe tobacco or do we share the same fate here too?
I will go to Delos and Delphi too but I don't think I can find tobacco there.

Forgive my Greek, I only stayed in Athens for a month before. |

Hello fellow smoker
we are in the same fate here, too if not in a worse one.
Pipe tobacco is really expensive here cause of the taxes. _________________ Ίσιος, άφιλτρος Vaperιστής και.....

Well, only 2 turkish blends are sold here in shops. Other aromatics are sold "under the counter". 50gr pouches are about 15 lira/7-8 euro.
Are there any tobacconists in Greece selling bulk/open tobacco? |

Unfortunately there is no bulk/open tobacco in Athens or another place in Greece. And the choices of tin or pouches are very few. I wish you Happy Holidays in beautiful Greece _________________ "ΣΟΦΟΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΟΠΟΙΟΣ ΞΕΡΕΙ ΤΑ ΧΡΗΣΙΜΑ ΟΧΙ ΤΑ ΠΟΛΛΑ" ΑΙΣΧΥΛΟΣ 525 - 456 π. Χ.

You will be ablt to fing some aromatics, but not quality ones except for some by Larsen.
The prices are high. The Larsens are close to 50 euros for a 100 gr tin. Yes the prices are high
You can find Scandinavik - Borkum Riff - Mac Barren for close to 10 euros though. |
