And almost all of them were made in the small Spanish town of Ubrique. And the pueblo blanco (“white town”) of Ubrique, nestled between two national parks in Andalusia, is perfectly positioned to leverage this.

For many of the leather workers in Ubrique, the patacabra was the soundtrack to their childhood.
