Can international travelers in Tbilisi place and pick up a Wildberries or Ozon order without a Georgian ID and local phone number?
For Wildberries and similar marketplaces in Georgia, you usually need a real Georgian phone number for SMS confirmation, and some orders also require a Georgian ID number.

Where to find specialty drinks and hard-to-locate items in Tbilisi (imported wine, pomegranate wine, high-purity isopropyl alcohol)?
For pomegranate or French wine, check specialty wine boutiques and natural wine bars (e.g. in Vake district, places like Vino Underground) rather than regular supermarkets. For 75% isopropyl alcohol specifically, try chemical/lab supply shops or medical equipment pharmacies instead of DAC (which sells 99%) or standard pharmacies (which usually stock 90%+ ethanol).
