Cretan Raki & Honey - Rakomelo

Rakomelo, raki with honey, is a favourite drink amongst Cretans made by combining traditional Tsikoudia (Greek raki) with Cretan thyme honey, cloves and cinnamon sticks. Rakomelo has a great sweet and full of spices taste and is widely enjoyed as an aperitif.

Rakomelo, is usually enjoyed in the evenings, especially during winter, as it is an old remedy for soothing cold and flu symptoms. During the summer time it can be enjoyed iced as a sweeter version of the traditional tsikoudia.

Lately, some visionary distillers have introduced along with Rakomelo some innovative versions of Greek Raki enriched with the exquisite flavours of fruits or nuts. Browse great Raki flavours in our eshop.
