Melissanidi Distillery's Tsipouro Makedonias Arhontiko is crafted from the exceptional local grape variety Amasi (also known as late Almopia), which thrives in an area renowned for its long-standing tradition and expertise in tsipouro distillation. This high-alcohol grape variety yields superb results during the distillation process. The distillation takes place in small copper abysses, a traditional method that ensures precise control over production and results in a premium-quality product.
Tsipouro Makedonias Arhontiko offers a unique flavour profile with subtle hints of sea salt, sweet notes of flower honey, and a distinctive botanical aftertaste.
The 2018 vintage of Tsipouro Makedonias Arhontiko was awarded the prestigious Gold Award at the 2019 Thessaloniki International Wine and Spirits Competition, further solidifying its exceptional quality.
