Getting any of the type of Metaxa is going to cost you, as is made partially from some of the originally barreled Mextaxa wine.

Some people will call Metaxa a brandy, because of the mixture of distilled wines and other additives that create the blend. This spirit uses only wines and ingredients from the Aegean Sea area, making it a truly Greek brandy. Metaxa Angels’ Treasure is a blend that arose from the cellars of the house of Metaxa. The Master Blender describes the blend as “what the Angels have left behind,” as he combines the last of the aged blends from the barrels. It was created In 1992 skillfully bringing together special blends of aged grape distillates and Muscat wines from Samos. Since then, the process takes place once a year, releasing a unique batch of Private Reserve.

Metaxa 7 Stars takes it up a notch with a sweeter honeyed note, and the 12 Stars offer a light hint of citrus. Still, the Grande Fine infuses all the Stars in a stunning decanter that tastes incredible and makes a gorgeous gift.Having been aged for 2 more years than the 5 star type, 7 star Metaxa will showcase a bit more of the nutty, earthy flavors than fruity flavors. The fruit flavors that are present resemble riper, heartier fruits like peaches or raisins rather than light citrus fruits. Alongside the flavor changes, this brandy is also smoother than the 5 star. 12 Star The Metaxa Brandy Collection Star rating represents the minimum number of years the spirit has aged in the barrel. This heavenly spirit that is not quite a brandy or a cognac yet takes you on a journey to Greece that you will want to re-take time and time again. What Is Metaxa? In 1992, Constantinos Raptis, newly appointed Metaxa Master creates his first edition of METAXA Private Reserve. Once a year, Constantinos keeps skillfully bringing together special blends of aged grape distillates and Muscat wines from Samos, releasing a unique batch of Private Reserve. 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.
