Metaxa 12 Stars (70cl)

Metaxa is the most famous Greek brandy. It is made by double distillation in a still from Savatiano, Sultanina and black Corinth grapes, blended with Muscat wines from Limnos and Samos and a mixture of aromatic herbs. It is then aged in oak barrels for at least 12 years. It is presented in a 700 ml bottle. On the nose it offers aromas of tobacco, dried fruit and vanilla. On the palate it is intense and complex, with notes of dark cocoa, figs and honey-marinated plums. It finishes long and persistent, with spicy notes and orange peel. It is served neat or with ice.
