About this bottle

Metaxa 7 Star is a Greek spirit blended by the Metaxa house in Athens from aged brandy distillates and Muscat wines from the islands of Samos and Lemnos, then rounded out with a small addition of Mediterranean botanicals — a recipe the company has kept secret since 1888. The star rating refers to the average age of the brandy component in the blend rather than a single vintage, and because of the added wine and botanicals Greek and EU law doesn't classify Metaxa as a true brandy at all. Expect a sweet, fruity nose with dried fig and rose, and a smooth, honeyed palate with a spiced, faintly resinous finish. Best served neat or over ice as an after-dinner sipper.

How to drink Metaxa 7 Star

Greeks traditionally drink it neat or over ice after a meal, the same way you'd pour a young cognac, and that's still the best way to taste the Muscat wine coming through. It also has a long history as the base spirit in a Greek-style Metaxa sour, built with lemon and simple syrup.
