FROM THE SEAS TO TAPAS BARS

A typical and traditional Spanish snack, the Picos Campaneros finds its origins in Sevilla, in the region of Andalucia. Born out of an abundance of olive oils in Spain at the time, these dry, crunchy sticks were originally consumed by sailors on their long trips at sea. They are most popular in Jerez, a city in the Andalucian region, where you will be typically served it in tapas bars and restaurants.
