About this deal

Metaxa Private Reserve (20–30 years) is the most expensive variety with some addition from the six-ton barrel “Spyros”, laid down more than 70 years ago by the grandson of the company founder, Spyros Metaxa. It is amber brandy in crystal bottles. Metaxa Angel’s Treasure (50 years) is the softest and most “silky” of all brandies, a ladies’ version with notes of bitterness resembling citrus peel and chocolate. Ingredients 4cl METAXA 7 Stars 4cl prosecco or other sparkling wine 2cl splash tonic 3 dash peach bitters or peach juice Garnish peach wedge Metaxa AEN (30–80 years of aging!)—“eternal” (from the Greek word aen) brandy, created for the 120th anniversary of the company. 70-year-old raw materials from the Spyros barrel are also added to it. You will recognize it by a round box, upholstered in natural thin skin of orange color. This strongest variety has alcohol by volume strength 45.30 and is infused with zest of red oranges, and fried walnuts. Metaxa 12 stars is “a drink of diplomats”, with a slight tobacco flavor. It was the first alcoholic beverage to have traveled to space.

Metaxa Amphora 7 Stars Brandy | Master of Malt

Metaxa Grand Fine (8-15 years of aging) is a gift option in opaque ceramic jugs. “The smells of oak, sweet spices, dried apricots and plums are guessed.”

Metaxa 5 stars in a pyramidal branded bottle. Here, brandy is softer and has a fruity-vanilla flavor. Probably, there are experts who can distinguish the taste of four-year-old “Metaxa” brandy from a 12-year-old one. For the rest, here is a cheat sheet. Metaxa Grand Olympian Reserve (8-15 years of aging) – Olympic series, bottled in special amphorae of fine porcelain with Greek ornaments. “The aroma is delicate, feminine, sweetish, honey, dried apricots, ripe yellow plums, fragrant summer herbs.” Metaxa 3 stars is the most spicy variety, so it is advised to drink it with lemon or ice to reduce the harshness of the taste.
