Tobacco Shops in BA

[FeelGoodLost]

Can anyone recommend any good tobacco shops around the city? I passed by one in Palermo today, I don't recall the name, I think it mainly specialized in Cigars. I didn't take the time to go inside though.​

Where was the one in Palermo? I've been struggling to find a decent shop as well.

It's a job to find any decent hand rolling tobacco.
They used to import Golden Virginia but now I have to buy some weird stuff called Unitas or Mynheer.

Santa Fe and Azcuenaga ( on Sta Fe ) right next to a small veggie store carries a large selection, has been there for at least 40 yrs

Mmmmh - I don't suppose ANYONE has found a tobacconist who sells snuff ? I am leaving Perth for Buenos Aires early next week and the ONE thing I forgot was to order a decent supply of snuff - and having ordered from my usual store in the UK I am now starting to stress that it won't get here before I leave - heeeeeeelp I don't want to be too fussy but what I am looking for is my regular blend - Fribourg and Treyer's Macouba - its a long shot but posting here just in case...

Not up on my snuff but if your shipment fails to arrive before your departure, an inquiry here might be helpful: http://www.tabaqueriainglesa.com.ar/productos.html

Thanks for that - the other thing I am really keen to try - too late to order here in oz - but the e cigarette thing - looks like a great idea for someone like me who wants to get back to ONLY snuff and to handle getting off the cigarellos etc ''smoking'' these e cigarettes might be a good idea - but I wonder if anyone in Argentina sells ''e cigarettes'' ?
