{"product_id":"metaxa-grande-fine-750ml","title":"Metaxa Grande Fine 750ml","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMetaxa Grande Fine is a top expression from The House of Metaxa, the Greek spirits house founded in 1888. Metaxa is a category of its own, a smooth amber spirit that sits somewhere between brandy and liqueur. Grande Fine starts with wine distillates aged between 8 and 15 years in French Limousin oak casks. Master blenders then marry them with aged Muscat wine from the Aegean islands and a secret blend of Mediterranean botanicals, led by rose petals. The result is aromatic, floral, and lightly sweet, with the depth of long oak aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProducer: The House of Metaxa, Greece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase: Aged wine distillates blended with Aegean Muscat wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAging: Spirits aged 8 to 15 years in French Limousin oak casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBotanicals: Mediterranean botanicals, including rose petals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABV: 40% (80 proof)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNose: Black tea leaves, dried apricot, toasty oak, and honey, with rose blossom and orange zest\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePalate: Silky and lightly sweet, with apricot, plum, rose water, vanilla, raisin, and a touch of black pepper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Smooth and medium length, with black tea, vanilla, and cracked pepper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eGrande Fine is best sipped neat at room temperature or over a single ice cube.
