KretaRaki Meli Rakomelo (3 Bottle Minimum)

About

Kretaraki Meli is Crete’s beloved “Rakomelo” — a traditional honey liqueur crafted from the island’s cherished base spirit, Tsikoudia. Rooted in Cretan hospitality and made to be shared, this golden elixir carries the warmth of the island in every sip.

Production

To create Kretaraki Meli, Tsikoudia is gently reduced to 25% alcohol, then infused with local Cretan honey, a hand-selected blend of spices, and a touch of caramel. The mixture is left to rest for around ten days, allowing the flavours to harmonize naturally. True to tradition, it is bottled unfiltered, preserving its authentic character.

Serving Suggestions

Enjoy chilled as an aperitif, savour it neat after a meal, or use it as a flavourful addition to cocktails. Once opened, store in a cool, dark place to preserve the delicate aromatics of the island honey.
