    1. Absinth Depot Berlin

    Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and Oscar Wilde were among the fin-de-siècle artists who drew inspiration from the ‘green fairy’, as absinthe is also known. This quaint little shop has over 60 varieties and an expert owner who’ll happily help you pick out the perfect bottle for your own mind-altering rendezvous.

    Pazianas Olivenöl

    Themistokles Pazianas' family has been growing Greek olives for four generations, so the man knows a thing or two about the noble fruit. Mellow and fruity to pungent - only top-quality oil makes it onto his shelves, along with other olive-based treats such as pastes, jams and tea.

    The most obvious buy in Bremen is sweets. Hachez is a good port of call, as the local purveyor of chocolate and specialities such as Kluten (peppermint sticks covered in dark chocolate).
