Metaxa 5 Star is a Greek brandy blended with aged Muscat wine and Mediterranean botanicals. The base spirit is double pot-still distilled from Savatiano, Sultanina and Black Corinth grapes, then aged for a minimum of five years in French Limousin oak casks. After maturation it is blended with Muscat wines from Samos and infused with Mediterranean botanicals, most notably May rose petals. It smells of orange blossom, rose petal, soft apricot and violet, with honey, muscat grape and light brioche. The palate is gentle and honeyed, with orange marmalade, ripe peach, white raisin, stewed plum and vanilla, plus subtle black pepper. The finish is medium, with peachy fruit fading into light oak, almond and lingering honeyed sweetness.
