SC&C day trip: Alcoi’s Artisanal Aperitifs

Friday 17th January 2025

After leaving Jávea we will make our way to Alcoi for a visit to Licores Sinc S.A. which, since its foundation in 1964, has been producing and distributing artisanal liqueurs and spirits.  The company does not normally run tours, so this will be a unique opportunity for our U3A members.

The company has modern facilities of more than 10,000 m2, where modernity and tradition coexist in perfect harmony. Their product range includes a wide variety of macerated and distilled drinks, whose production combines traditional methods with the most current innovation. The product range consists of a wide variety of distilled and macerated beverages, including traditional drinks protected by the Regulatory Council of Traditional Spirits of Alicante, such as the Alcoy Coffee Aperitif or the Sierra de Mariola Herbero. 

Continuous product development has allowed the company to incorporate specialties that include the best alcohols and spirits from such prestigious denominations of origin as Dominican Rum or Scotch Whisky.    After the distillery guided tour, in English, there will be a tasting of some of their liquors and you can also visit the shop.

After the visit we will reboard our coach and travel to Casa San Miguel for lunch, a rural farm in a peaceful location which serves quality local dishes, using natural products.

Return to Jávea in the late afternoon.
