The quest listed above requires pre-discovery of Candia before it will generate.

Curious did mention this under the unofficial new quest walkthrough page, Mercator Estate -- I simply felt it was worth repeating here as well.

If you have a 17th Century 3 or 4 Chrono title, the Caribbean town of Port Royal's marketplace reportedly sells three different kinds of alcohol: tequila, brandy, and rum. Great for grinding this skill if you have plenty of PO2s!

Getting into Port Royal requires having charted the Antilles Sea for Mercator, and running two quests, Country of Pirates and Request from Port Royal, both of which come from Santo Domingo's Maritime Guild. Oh, and since it's a pirate town, a 1m bribe each time you enter.

Nassau also sells three different alcohols, beer, rum & tequila. It's also a pirate port so the 1mil bribe applies unless you've been a bad boy/girl. But no quests needed to unlock it, so it's more accessible in general.

Although many people who have alco trade also have lux trade, in which case Havana might be better: it has 3 luxuries and 2 alcohols, so if you go with a job that favours both, you can grind them together, arguably making the most of your PO2s.

Is the Rhyton quest repeatable?
Not seen it since I did it the first time.

Quests that give item rewards often aren't, in my experience. Exceptions exist like the Scipio's Helmet quest, but the Rhyton may fall under the 'no longer shows up once you've completed it' category.

If you can have somebody else pull the quest for you, that'd work too; the only question then is do you get the Rhyton reward again, or is it impossible/extremely difficult to receive a new Rhyton on finishing the quest again? Maybe somebody else has a better idea and can answer you more accurately than I did. Here's hoping.

There are many guides out there which advise how to grind this skill. Here's a link to one of the best ones out there:
