Detailed itinerary
1
Discover the origin of the tabancos and visit the historic Mercado Central de Abastos, where flamenco art is featured among the stalls.
The historic Mercado Central de Abastos (Central Market) stands on the stones of the former convent of San Francisco. Its 19th-century structure houses one of the most authentic markets in Andalusia, where time seems to stand still among its tiled and wrought-iron aisles. Built in 1885, this iconic space is not just a shopping destination, but a true cultural sanctuary where local cuisine and the purest expressions of Jerez flamenco converge.
2
Then, head to 4 traditional tabancos to taste 4 different types of sherry wine. Savor Fino, Amontillado, Oloroso, and Pedro Ximénez or Cream, paired with typical Andalusian tapas.
3
Finally, head to an intimate setting to enjoy a flamenco performance also called the "Sobremesa Flamenca". Share a table with local artists and hear live vocals, guitar, and rhythm, without any gimmicks.
