| Metaxa makes something more than just brandy. Connoisseurs consider Metaxa Grande Fine a unique product on par with Cognac. This exceptional 15-year-old (on average) product is made by twice distilling Savatiano, Sultanina and Black Corinth grape juice. It is then married with aged Muscat wine from Samos and Lemnos. Finally, it’s blended with a secret botanical mix then aged in French oak casks. Serve neat after dinner. The exquisitely-designed bottle would make a striking addition to any table. |
