Any smokers out there?

Cigarettes are horrible in Poland, and I would like to locate a decent smoke shop in Wroclaw, someplace maybe with some more upscale brands. In the states I can smoke the ciggie brands right from the 7-11, but smokes are really good in America, terrible here. I'm thinking my only chance of actually enjoying cigarettes in Poland is to find a smoke shop with better smokes.

Anyone know of a smoke shop in Wroclaw?

Try Davidoff (the cigarette brand). Probably the best cigarettes on the Polish market these days. Only reason I don't smoke them is that they don't have a super-light version.

Also worth trying if you can find them are Parliament. Unfortunately they didn't sell well in Poland (real shocker considering that they were priced 15% above Marlboro and the marketing spend was basically zero) and so have apparently been withdrawn from the market. I'll be getting mine from Russia from now on.

i considered Davidoff. i guess it's worth a shot.

i had a friend of mine try sending me some through the mail, it got sent back to him. apparently some issues with sending tobacco overseas.

great news.

walking the streets of Wroclaw, I stumbled upon a Ruch kiosk that sold Dunhill's. what a find. at 13.60 per box, they're worth every grosz. made in England, imported from England, so they're the real deal, not these Polish spinoff brands that are probably made in a basement in Bulgaria.

finally a smokeable cigarette in Poland.
