Schlecker - Drug store. Good for Tabac shave sticks, AS/ASB/ and pretty much the whole line...except the bowl. Also good for Irisch Moos - whole line. Good deal on tubes of Palm Olive and Florina (99c at moment).

Ihr Platz - Drug Store again - pretty much the same as above.

Kaufhoff and Karstadt - 2 different department stores which stock the Tabac bowls and refills and the rest of the line. They normally have a load of other lines too.

They are the only ones i have had any joy with (at the moment )

Cheers,

I have no idea what stores this would be in, but I highly recommend you pick up both some Speick & Tüff AS for yourself while you're there. Both are excellent products. And the Speick shave stick too, while you're at it.

Hey cool, I live in Munich. One place you have to go to is the "Ludwig Beck" store: http://www.ludwigbeck.de/ located on Marienplatz smack in the middle of town. In its vicinity there is a wonderful little parfumerie in the Diennerstrasse run by an elderly man and selling a lot of slightly old fashion stuff which may be hard to come by in other places. In the same street there is an establishement called manufactum: http://www.manufactum.de/home.html which sells high quality old fashioned products and is a great place to go if you want to try the elusive Tüff ASB. Hope this helps, apart from you can find organic soaps and creams at the "Basic" stores, there is one next to the Viktualienmarkt and a great place to get some cheap Speick.

I love Munich!!! One of the cleanest and most beautiful airports as well.

I have also found moustache wax at a few of the drug shoppes.

Have fun!! Great city!
