Nose: Warm honey and cinnamon dominate, backed by subtle grape brandy notes. Hints of clove and nutmeg add complexity. A touch of oak rounds out the aroma.
Palate: Smooth and syrupy texture. Rich honey sweetness balanced by spicy cinnamon and clove. Grape brandy provides depth and warmth. Subtle orange peel and vanilla notes emerge.
Finish: Long and warming. Honey and spice linger, with cinnamon taking the lead. Gentle brandy heat fades slowly, leaving a pleasant sweetness on the tongue.

The mixture is then aged in oak barrels, allowing the flavors to meld and develop complexity, resulting in a smooth, aromatic liqueur that captures the essence of Greek hospitality.
