About this deal
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. Metaxa is a Greek amber-coloured spirit created in 1888 by Spyros Metaxa. Officially not brandy or cognac, Metaxa is a blend of Muscat wine and aged brandies (wine distillates) combined in Limousin oak casks. Mediterranean botanicals are added to the finishing process for additional aroma and taste. What Does Metaxa Taste Like? I've tried the 5-star and now 7-star. Sure, they're not undrinkable but for what they cost you can get a number of single malts (or very close to it), a few Armagnacs and some brandies (St. Remy VSOP way cheaper and better).
If you’re drinking Metaxa neat, it is best to use a brandy snifter or a tulip glass. This will help concentrate the drink’s aroma and make it more enjoyable.Combine Metaxa, tequila, and lime juice in an ice-filled shaker. Shake well and strain into a salt-rimmed glass. Enjoy!
