The tour begins on a warm brick street where the sea breeze nudges your jacket and the scent of toasted oak drifts from a working distillery. You step inside for a behind-the-scenes look at mash, char, and the care that turns grain into spirit, then spill back out into a historic grid where Spanish-era plazas and low-slung storefronts preside over modern bars.
