FAQs For Metaxa Amphora 7 Star Brandy

How is it made?

Crafted from aged brandy blended with muscat wine from the Aegean islands, creating a signature richness and aromatic lift. Mediterranean botanicals add depth and complexity, enhancing the spirit’s floral and spiced profile.

The blend is matured to achieve smoothness and harmony, then bottled in the iconic amphora‑shaped vessel that reflects Metaxa’s heritage. This combination of aged brandy, muscat wine and botanicals results in a spirit that is both distinctive and beautifully balanced.

Does this brandy age in bottle?

No all ageing occurs in oak barrels.

What is the difference between Metaxa 7 Star and traditional brandy?

Traditional brandies are made solely from distilled wine aged in oak. Metaxa 7 Star combines aged wine distillates with sweet Muscat wines and botanicals, creating a softer, fruitier, and more aromatic style with a distinctive Mediterranean character.

What does the "7 Star" designation mean?

It refers to Metaxa's grading system for its ageing process. The higher the star rating, the longer and smoother the ageing, resulting in a more refined final spirit.
