As an aside, what are the not good kind of coffee shops?

Yes. You are allowed to bring two bottles of booze (i.e. Scotch) or wine, or 12 cans of beer - they don't specify the measurements. I know that 2x1L is fine. You need to declare this at customs and sign a paper declaring it's for your own use. Keep that paper. Since they xray every piece of luggage, they would find it btw, I would never think to smuggle anything into that country in the first place though. The hotel safe at the Empire holds bottles of 1L Scotch standing up, don't think that's a coincidence There's a small fee for importing a carton of cigarettes, if that's your thing, but none for booze.
