Altered State really stands for an "altered state of consciousness". The smartshops sells legal psychedelics. See them for magic truffels, kanna, kratom, herbal vitamins, vaporisers, bongs, nootropics/ cognitive enhancers, gifts and clothing. Altered State staff members will give you some good advice. They will happily give you access to special and mind-altering experience. Smartshop Altered State has been wel-known in Leiden and the region for more than twenty years. As well as being a smartshop, Altered State is also a place to share, to experience and to meet. And please come in for a delicious cup of coffee or tea! I had a great experience in the shop and certainly will come back for different products and good advice! Hope that you'll have the same experience as me!
