The Story Behind The Bottle
Habits Bottle Shop
Metaxa 7 Star is a distinctive Greek spirit created by blending aged, cask-strength grape distillate with sweet Muscat wine and a proprietary recipe of Mediterranean botanicals, including notes of anise and rose. Created in Athens in the late 1800s, Metaxa occupies its own category, somewhere between brandy and liqueur, and the 7 Star designation represents one of the brand's more refined, longer-aged expressions.
On the nose, expect dried fruit, rose petal and warm spice, while the palate is smooth and mellow with grape sweetness, gentle oak and a lightly aromatic, spiced finish. It is traditionally enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or with a splash of soda as a relaxed after-dinner sipper, and it also makes an interesting base for brandy-style cocktails looking for extra aromatic complexity.
For anyone curious about Greece's most famous spirit export, Metaxa 7 Star offers an approachable and flavorful introduction. Shop this Greek liqueur online at Habits Bottle Shop and bring a taste of Athens to your home bar.

Ways To Pour It
Neat
Served on its own in a rocks glass, letting the full character come through exactly as crafted.
On The Rocks
A single large-format ice cube slowly opens things up and softens the edges as it melts.
In A Cocktail
Works well as the backbone of a simple classic — let it do the heavy lifting.
