Metaxa Private Reserve Greek Spirit 700ml – an exceptional aged Greek spirit that represents the pinnacle of Metaxa's craftsmanship. This luxurious expression combines aged Muscat wines with fine distillates, creating a voluptuous and complex spirit.

Appearance

Intense amber colour with deep copper highlights, displaying remarkable richness and depth. The hue reflects extensive cask maturation, with brilliant clarity and viscous legs that slowly cascade down the glass, indicating exceptional quality and concentration.

Aroma

The nose is opulent and inviting, opening with pronounced dried apricot and prune aromas that speak to the spirit's maturity. Sweet honey notes weave through the bouquet, complemented by rich black raisin character. Subtle hints of Mediterranean botanicals and aged oak add complexity, whilst warm spice undertones – cinnamon and nutmeg – provide depth. The aromatic profile is harmonious and sophisticated, balancing fruit sweetness with elegant wood influence.

Palate

Voluptuous and full-bodied on entry, the palate delivers luxurious caramel richness that coats the mouth. Layers of dried fruit – apricot, prune and black raisin – unfold beautifully, supported by honeyed sweetness. The texture is silky and refined, with excellent weight and presence. Sweet spices emerge on the mid-palate, adding warmth and complexity. The finish is long and satisfying, with persistent dried fruit character and gentle sweet spice notes that linger gracefully. This is a contemplative spirit of remarkable elegance.
