Our author guides us through the experience of drinking tsipouro, introducing us to the ideal conditions to enjoy one or more glasses of this traditional Greek spirit. The right place with good homemade tsipouro, how we sit, the size of the group, the clinking of glasses, the menu, the character of the waiter, the conversation, the location, the time, and especially the pace are factors that determine the outcome. Alexandros Psychoulis, a connoisseur from Volos in the role of a guide, offers us an anthropological guide to bliss with a geographical focus. This is a text with vivid descriptions that takes the reader to a tsipouradiko in Volos, by the sea.

In the author's words:
"If you are a foreigner who has decided to go to Volos with your family or a large group to delve into the tsipouro culture during a holiday, although you will leave quite satisfied, do not believe for a moment that this is the experience you had heard so much about. You will need to return once more with a small group and find a connoisseur from Volos to guide you."
