    The town of Sanlúcar de Barrameda holds a special distinction within the D.O. of Jerez-Xérès-Sherry: this town in the only place where Manzanilla can be produced.

The flor here is more heavily influenced by the ocean than the flor that grows in other parts of Sherry Country.

Bodegas La Cigarrera is a Manzanilla producing Almacenista that began aging Sherries in 1758. In 1997 La Cigarrera’s ninth-generation cellar master Ignacio Hidalgo decided to estate bottle his Sher- ries so that he could sell a higher quality wine di- rectly to the market.
