Be the first to review this product
A rare 5-year aged Greek raki matured in Vinsanto barrels, offering velvety notes of honey, raisin, and bergamot in every sip.
Manufacturer: elenianna S.M.P.C
SKU: EL985

This exceptional aged spirit redefines Greek distillation tradition. Crafted in Thessaly using slow copper-pot methods and matured for five full years in French and American oak barrels previously home to red wines and Vinsanto, this raki reveals a bold yet refined character rarely found in the category.

What Sets This Raki Apart

  • Five years of patient aging, far beyond the typical one- to two-year maturation period
  • Matured in French and American oak barrels previously holding red wines and Vinsanto, imparting complex notes of honey, raisin, and bergamot
  • Traditional slow copper-pot distillation preserves only the heart of the distillate, ensuring pure Thessalian grape character
  • Velvety mouthfeel with a smooth finish that recalls aged Cognac or premium rum
  • Rich aromatic profile featuring dried plums, citrus peel, nutmeg, chocolate, and vanilla
  • 700ml bottle perfect for savoring or sharing on special occasions

Origin: Distilled in Thessaly, Greece, from estate-grown grape marc using small-batch copper stills.

Volume: 700ml
