To be clear, the staff in coffee shops do ask you if it's your first time and give you guidelines for how to use them safely, and usually informative leaflets are attached. At least in tourist places.

I was actually really impressed with the effort to educate people about truffles last time I went.

I've heard from friends that this exactly happens with DMT experiences. I'm not sure if DMT is legal here (they make it themselves, the ingredients are legal). Yet, they somehow advertize it publicly (?).
He did it in the south of The Netherlands.
Wouldn't the solution rather be for Amsterdam to create a "newbie coffee shops" or something similar?
1. Create safe newbie-friendly places that provide an opportunity to safely experience a legal drug X.
2. Mandate that for a foreigner to buy a legal drug X, they must have an ID-like document that says they are experienced with X.
3. Once a tourist experiences X in a newbie-friendly place, they award him/her with an ID-like document that enables the tourist to buy X on their own.
Surely that create more jobs and opportunities in Amsterdam than the "bug off!" rhetoric I've seen from the local Amsterdam government.
