Description
Metaxa 7 Star Amphora is a distinctive Greek amber spirit that defies simple categorisation, blending the worlds of brandy and liqueur into something refreshingly its own. Crafted from Muscat wines of the Aegean Islands and wine distillates matured for up to seven years in oak barrels, this expression carries the highest percentage of Muscat wine in the Stars range, delivering a sweetness and roundness that sets it apart from conventional brandies.

Made by Greece’s leading brandy producer just outside Athens in Attika, this spirit employs a blend of Savatiano, Sultanina, and Black Corinth grapes, twice distilled to 60% ABV in traditional copper pot stills before dilution and blending with secret botanicals including anise and rose petals. The final spirit is bottled at 40% ABV, presented in an elegant amphora-shaped bottle that nods to Greece’s ancient heritage.
Nose: Mineral notes reminiscent of limestone, with browned butter, nougat, almond paste, and delicate floral hints.
Palate: Mild and sweet on the tongue with dried fruits, honey, and spice notes, complemented by a pleasant fruity roundness and creamy texture.
Finish: Prolonged and generous with a warming conclusion and lingering fruity sweetness.
Serve Metaxa 7 Star Amphora in a red wine glass at room temperature to appreciate its full aromatics, or enjoy over ice with a dash of bitters for a refreshing aperitif. It also works beautifully in brandy-based cocktails where a sweeter, more appromatic profile is desired.
A thoughtful gift for whisky enthusiasts curious to explore something beyond the usual categories, or for anyone seeking an accessible entry point into Greek spirits tradition.
