ΜΕΤΑΧΑ The Original Greek Spirit
METAXA is the most reknowned Greek spirit, first created by Spyros Metaxas in 1888. METAXA is a mixture of brandy and wine. It is made from raisins (sultana, savvatiano and black raisin) and aged muscat wines of exceptional quality from Samos and Lemnos. METAXA is aged in handmade French oak barrels for at least three years before being flavored with a secret blend of herbs, including rose petals and distilled water.
Today METAXA is exported to over 60 countries, and is included in the 100 most popular drinks worldwide. It is available in five grades: "3 stars" (at least 3 years old), "5 stars" (at least 5 year old), and "7 stars" (at least seven year old), 12 stars (at least 12 year old) and Private Reserve with spirits aged over 30 years.
