Tabancos of Jerez
Tabancos de Jerez
Traditional taverns where sherry is poured straight from the cask, served with ham and cheese snacks, some with live flamenco.
Tabancos are old-style taverns unique to Jerez. Once they also sold sherry in bulk, and today they are where locals stop for a drink. A glass of fino or manzanilla costs just two or three euros and pairs well with Iberian ham, fried fish and cheese. The most famous is El Pasaje, opened in 1925, which has flamenco performances every day. Other taverns such as San Pablo and Duque are scattered around the old town, so you can plan a 'tabanco route' and hop from bar to bar.
