Going to Italy. Which tobaccos do I purchase?
I'm staying in Italy for a week. What are some local or regional favorites that I should pick up that aren't available in the United States? Does anyone know of good tobacco shops? I'm staying in Florence, but I will also probably be in Rome and Milan. Thanks in advance, NKB- neverknowsbest
