Grapes Fermented and Ready for Rakia Making in Yambol (Ямбол)

It is rakia making season in Bulgaria with the grapes being fermented out to go on an be distilled into the National Bulgarian drink Rakia. This was seen on the street where the hydrometer showed zero meaning all the sugar has been converted into alcohol and ready to take to the Rakia making stills in homes and rakia houses scattered around the country.

The Unhealthiest Shop in Yambol

This Yambol shop has been trading here for many years. It has to be the unhealthiest shop in Yambol. I can't see one item that is good for your health. tobacco, alcohol, crisps, ice cream and coca cola. I might add that the shop is always busy.

Yambol's First 24 Hour Supermarket

There was a time when there were no 24 hour shops in Yambol. This was the first non stop supermarket and people don't really know how they coped without it. Often used for getting alcohol in the early hours of the morning after clubbing! (I know!)
