Anything worth buying in the Canaries?

[EachandEveryone]

Tenerife to be exact. I’m going next week and I love a supermarket browse but I’m wondering if there’s anything cheaper or unique there?

Honey Rum.
Aloe Vera cream.

Any particular brand?

Aloe Vera.
Spices for mojo sauce
Honey in various forms, including rum

If you can cope with holiday branded souvenirs their coffee cups they sell with the matte outer and shiny inside plus a pot spoon are amazing! Allow you to drink a really hot cuppa without burning your lips.

Came here to say aloe Vera as well 😁

The little bottles of mojo sauce are really good to have with your wrinkly potatoes.

Another vote for honey rum.

I bought raybans in 2022 for £65 that were great but last summer I wanted to replace them in Gran Canaria (same shop) and they were £245 so I didn’t. Perfume was a good price though - in a proper shop not market. Can’t remember the name but they had a yellow elephant logo.

Honey rum

Spirits in plastic brick bottles.

Perfume - I always stock up!

Cream of the banana

@TeenLifeMum The shop is called Funde Grube

That’s the one!

Is aloe Vera in a gel or cream

Honey rum and aloe Vera gel (we like to keep it in the fridge)

This gin is delicious and much cheaper in canaries northernwineandbeer.co.uk/sherry-vermouth-gin/p/macronesian-white-gin

The Dorada brewery makes some very tasty beers, which are sold in cute little 250ml bottles.

I prefer aloe gel and like a pp keep it in the fridge

Adding to the others who've already mentioned honey rum, it's absolutely delicious, you'll be given it as a shot after meals so will probably get to tybit during your holiday. It's about 7 euro for a massive bottle, I'm sad I've nearly finished my bottle.

The local Malvasia wine is lovely. Not much is exported so hard to buy outside of canaries.

Ooh. That's one of the many destination I'm yearning to go to for our next holiday! ( April's Lanzarote) I'd be buying Tenerife tops,Leche Leches,Fanta Lemon and trying Aquarious. Plus getting the Spanish version of Maoms probable too as the kids love them in Lanza!! Have a lovely time

If you are self catering, uncooked frozen Gambas from Mercadona, around ten euros a kilo.

The spice you put in paella ... cant recall the name. Much cheaper.

Go into hyperdino and get some ‘EJove’ aloe Vera triple effect cream. It’s under a fiver for a tub and knocks socks off every single moisturiser I’ve ever used - it’s better than clarins for me, and smells wonderful.

i’m currently contemplating paying £12 postage for a £5 cream just to get some more as it’s unlikely I’ll get back to the canaries this year 😭
