Metaxa, 7 Stars, The Original Greek Spirit, 70cl

Product Information

Maybe some people like the idea of a brandy distillate being diluted with sweet wine but I find the flavors actually conflict.

METAXA 7 Stars is the senior expression of the METAXA style featuring longer-aged Muscat wines from the Aegean Islands and fine wine distillates matured up to seven years in oak casks. The brandy's deep amber color and complex flavor profile of honey, caramel, and spices make it a true delight for the senses.Items are NOT insured as standard, please contact us if you would like to discuss additional insurance for premium products.
