  • This review is about the bottle: 700 ml

    Which plain vodka compares to Metaxa? Which rum and which vermouth? Which whiskey at up to triple the price?
    Metaxa is a wonderful drink for all days and hours.

    Excellent. Especially for the money you pay. I drink it with half an orange slice.

    This review is about the bottle: 700 ml

    I have been drinking exclusively METAXA for 20+ years (every day as an aperitif, meaning before lunch).

    The secret...
    a) The 3-star requires 4-6 ml of honey or carob honey dissolved in 100ml of boiling water per liter to elevate it and lose its bitterness.
    b) The 5-star requires a little dilution (half a shot of water in 100ml) where you do not lose the taste or the alcohol and it softens it.

    From 7 and above, the flavors change.

    After hours and hours of work, METAXA is the only thing that relaxes you. Those who drink whiskey simply do not understand that METAXA has 100000000 times more aroma.

    PS IT IS NOT BRANDY NOR COGNAC. It is something unique.

    Ideal for all year round because it matches perfectly with everything and it is also amazing on its own, whether hot or cold!

    This review is about the bottle: 700 ml

    They say that the drinks you use in infusions don't matter if they are 2, 3 stars or even mineral oils.
    But the truth is that if you drink a bottle of 3-star Metaxa and then a bottle of 5-star Metaxa, in a Hot Grog, you will notice very intense quality differences.
    1. It is not so bitter. Its taste is smooth and fragrant.
    2. It doesn't need almost any spices.
    It elevates the tea.
    For the record, I use Dilmah black.
    Its category is not the one that the price suggests. The equivalents of 15-16 euros that the cellars sell are more 3-star than the 3-star.
    The reason I don't give it 5 stars is because in my opinion, it lacks a basic characteristic that the 3-star has. The 3-star is stronger in alcohol content. If you drink cognac and whiskey, you can understand this difference even when in theory it is only 4%.
    The 5-star Metaxa is what we would call refined and rich, but light. And it doesn't suit it to be so light.

    Every METAXA is incomparable for the price category it plays in compared to the competition. For 15 and something euros, it is a much superior distillate for any imported product at this price.
