Metaxa Grande Fine Collector's Edition (40%)

Metaxa Grande Fine is a Greek liqueur combining aged wine-distillates, sweet Muscat from Samos, Mediterranean botanicals and refined oak notes. It is produced by the House of Metaxa in Greece, which has been making spirit blends since 1888. This is a limited edition / collector's edition release in a porcelain bottle designed by Greek street artist Cacao Rocks, inspired by Cycladic architecture and symbolism. The blend includes aged Muscat wines from Samos, wine distillates and botanicals macerated in wine alcohol for about one year. It is smooth, full-bodied and suited to sipping neat or after a meal. The colour is dark amber. On the nose there are dried fruits, nuts, honey, oak, dry flowers and sweet spices. The palate brings honeyed fruit, toffee, gentle oak and warm spices with a smooth texture. The finish is mellow and sustained, with honeyed fruit and a touch of spice.
