Not sure there is at Malaga airport, can't remember.
There was one outside at Alicante airport but not at Reus.
Not even a shop or cafe outside to buy from.

If I where you I'd take enough to get you to your resort.
Depends on what time you're flying because Tabac shops also have set times they are open.

Weekends - Spanish Tabacs often close at 1.30pm on Saturday and only re-open on Monday.

While this is generally true, the Tabacs in Salou and La Pineda were open until 9p.m. 7 days a week when we were there last week. So possibly the same in other big resorts.

Below is a link to the official prices, charged across Spain and the Balaerics. The 1st column is the price in Official Tabaccos shops, the 2nd column is the price from vending machines in bars etc. Click on cigarillos for ciggies and Picadura de liar for baccy

Bear in mind that tobacco in airports within the airport ijn Europe is normally a fair amount expensive than buying in the local shops.

You can buy duty paid when leaving the country, not when entering it.

Erm...Duty Paid by nature is available anywhere in the country, whenever you want. Those 'duty paid' shops in airports are a complete scam by any stretch of the imagination.

Please excuse my ignorance ! ! ! This is not something I usually take note of. When flying back to the UK from a country within the EU, can someone advise me of the price of tobacco [Golden Virginia if possible] at the duty free at the airport ? ?
Thanks in anticipation
