Interesting Facts
The basis of the recipe Metaxa - a distillate, which is made from wine, consisting of three grape varieties: Sultanina, Savatyano and Black Corinth. After distilling spirits bottled in small French oak barrels Limousin, where, depending on the type of future brand, they are aged from 3 to 30 years. Ripe alcohols blended with gorgeous muscat wines, extracts of May rose petals and Mediterranean herbs that give the drink softness and richness; blend then placed for six months in large oak casks. Before filling brandy cooled for two days and filtered beverage thus rendered resistant to precipitation.
Today, S and E and A Metaxa ABE remains true to the traditions and implements a particular style of METAXA, created by the founder of the House.
