Where can I buy rolling tobacco in Silom? The tobacco they sell at the 7-Eleven I went to is awful and I can’t smoke it.

It is located on Floor G of the Silom Complex Department Store at 191 Silom Road. The Silom Complex Department Store is on the south side of the Silom Road very close to Sala Daeng BTS Station.
