We
stopped
at
the
bitters
factory
as
part
of
a
tour,
and
it
was
a
little
weird.
The
factory
tours
are
not
performed
by
Angostura.
Rather,
the
contract
with
the
city
guides,
to
perform
the
tour
of
their
factory.
Recognizing
it
was
between
Christmas
and
New
Year’s,
the
tour
wasn’t
as
good
as
it
could
have
been.
Our
guide
was
very
knowledgeable,
and
we
spent
a
lot
of
time
talking
about
the
history
of
the
island
and
Angostura
When
it
came
to
the
factory,
he
noted
that
some
folks
were
in
flip-flops,
and
that
was
not
allowed,
so
we
had
to
crawl
back
up
on
the
bus
and
the
bus
drove
us
around.
Many
distilleries
have
a
tasting
room
where
at
the
end
of
the
tour
you
have
the
opportunity
to
taste
their
wares.
in
this
case,
they
provided
a
little
gift
bag
and
suggested
that
you
should
not
partake
of
the
tastings,
while
on
their
property,
rather
go
back
to
the
cruise
ship
or
your
hotel
and
sample
that
that
time
I
recognize
everybody
has
a
bad
day,
so
maybe
they
were
having
a
bad
day,
but
in
the
big
scheme
of
things,
it
wasn’t
a
very
enticing
experience
.
