a b c Micallef, Joseph (6 October 2022). "Why You Should Discover Metaxa: Greece's Incomparable 'Brandy' ". Forbes . Retrieved 26 June 2023. A Metaxa made with a blend of cask brandies aged up to 80 years, aromatic Muscat wine, and delicate botanicals. Taste notes Metaxa can be served neat, over ice, or mixed with other drinks. If you’re drinking Metaxa neat, it’s best to use a brandy snifter or tulip glass. This will help concentrate the drink’s aroma and make it more enjoyable. Fill the glass with Metaxa and swirl it around before taking a sip. Add a splash of water to open up the flavors.

This well aged brandy has strong roasted flavors of chocolate, fig, prune, butterscotch, and other tasty hints you’ll get as you sip. It is very smooth to drink and has a rich flavor and strong aroma that mix together for a very pleasing taste. Private Reserve Metaxa should be stored in a cool, dark place. Once opened, Metaxa will last for up to two years. Be sure to keep the bottle tightly sealed when not in use to prevent the spirit from evaporating. How To Drink Metaxa If you want to enjoy Metaxa on a hot day, try serving it over ice. This will help to cool the drink and make it more refreshing. Metaxa 5 Star: Metaxa 5 Star is the flagship product of the Metaxa brand. It is a smooth, mellow spirit made from a blend of fine wine distillates, brandy, and muscat wines. Metaxa 5 Star is aged in oak casks for at least five years, and it has a mellow flavor that can be enjoyed on its own or mixed with other drinks.Getting any of the type of Metaxa is going to cost you, as is made partially from some of the originally barreled Mextaxa wine. It is an incredibly rare brandy that can be aged for as long as 80 or more years. The flavors, aroma, and smoothness are one of the kind and you won’t find this sort of mix very often. Add all ingredients to a shaker filled with ice. Shake well and strain into a glass. Serve immediately. Metaxa Mule To celebrate the house of Metaxa’s 130 year birthday, Master Blender Constantinos Raptis released 130 decanters of the most iconic and precious elixir, the AEN Cask No 2 – Despina. Drinking Metaxa can be an enjoyable experience, whether sipped neat, over ice or mixed with other drinks.

Cheese is a versatile food that pairs well with many different spirits. Try serving some sliced cheese and grapes alongside a glass of Metaxa for an easy appetizer. Salad This article will explore some of the different ways to drink Metaxa. We’ll also provide tips on getting the most out of your drinking experience. The Different Types of Metaxa There is a fruit taste to it and notes of citrus, which suggests the use of something like orange blossom or orange oil. There is also a floral taste, imparted both by the rose petals and potentially something like jasmine. Really though, it’s all speculation and no one except the few who make it know what goes into Metaxa. What Are the Different Types of Metaxa? There is a significant difference in taste, because while the unique Metaxa flavor is there throughout, there is a certain smoothness and clarity added by the maturation process, not unlike the improvements you get when you age normal brandy or even whiskey. The greater the age, the more complex the flavors are and the more enjoyable the drink will be. Metaxa 3 There’s a hint of violets in there too, probably a spin-off from the roses. Perhaps figs as well, another sweetness, and a hint of dark coffee richness. It’s certainly an interesting aroma and not quite like anything else while resembling both brandy and whisky.

You will pay very little for Metaxa in local bars and restaurants, with the 5 and 7 versions priced around the same as the most basic of whiskey and vodka imports. The 12 is a little more expensive of course, but there’s no better place to enjoy it as this drink is cheaper in Greece than it is in any other country. Metaxa Private Reserve is the sublime personal creation from Master Blender Constantinos Rapis. This private reserve brandy is created in a single batch once a year, so don’t delay getting your hands on a bottle. The second process that gives this brandy its unique taste is the mix of local herbs that are put in to add aroma and herbal flavors. While the brewery keeps the exact ingredients and amounts secret for its recipe’s sake, it’s known to include May roses and other local Mediterranean herbs that are added before aging. Metaxa tastes much like a cognac or brandy. Depending on the age of the Metaxa, it brings flavours of dried fruits, honey, caramel, dark chocolate, and oak with a smooth and flavoursome finish.
