Every stop on this experience is within walking distance. We also keep our groups small, never more than eight people, for a more personal and enjoyable experience.
We will meet at our family-owned shop, at the HANDMADE THE BRAND® shop . We will visit traditional places that define Old San Juan culture. On each stop we will have a special surprise for our guests.
We will start by meeting at 150 Calle Fortaleza, inside the Handmade Shop, the most famous street in Old San Juan, where we will show you some hidden gems nearby, give you an introduction, and a welcome drink to start our tour.
We will walk to the first stop of the experience, an amazing rum store famous for its "Ron Añejo", our favourite in the whole city. Several varieties will be included while we talk about San Juan and it's culture. Sit, relax and learn about rum.
Then we will start with the cigar tasting, local samples, to taste different qualities and processes. We will learn how to spot good quality in case you want to buy one.
Finally, as our last stop, not far from there, we will have a little show with some drinks at an artisanal espadrille shop, the most traditional shoe from Spanish times. You will learn this tradition, try some pairs and even choose one classic espadrille for yourself (included in the price). We will turn the shop into a little party with music and drinks, all included!
