After visiting Bulgaria and trying out Sofia’s pistachios, we feel like it’s a fantastic idea for us to check out what their western neighbor has to offer. Next up, North Macedonia!

In North Macedonia, We encountered a couple different types of pistachios. Some were sold openly outside tuck shops just like in Sofia. Others we came across while visiting the local supermarkets.
