OUZO VANTANA MAVROMMATI

 

OUZO VANTANA MAVROMMATI

Paris Mavrommatis was an old distiller of Patras, a colleague and friend of Panagiotis Vantanas. When his nephew, Thanasis Georgopoulos, closed his distillery, the VANTANA Distillery undertook to continue the tradition, producing spirits with the exact same recipe.
The traditional ouzo of Paris Mavrommatis is based on quality distillation of several aromatic seeds, roots and herbs with the key components being anise, fennel and mastic.
Following a slow distillation process in traditional copper stills - which are built-in with fire bricks and fireclay - the heads and tails, i.e. the initial and last part of the distillation are removed and only the middle part, i.e. the “heart” is kept, to ensure that the distillate has the best aroma and ideal flavour.
The distillate is then diluted with crystal clear water from the mountains of Erymanthos and before it is bottled, it is filtered and remains stored for a quite some time to mature and blend.
The rich taste and special aroma of the traditional Ouzo Paris Mavrommatis by the VANTANA distillery, is everything that the friends of traditional ouzo wish for.
It can be enjoyed neat, but it is best served with cold water and added ice. Its cloudy texture, once water has been added, reveals an explosion of aromas. The aroma of seeds and herbs is released, the texture of the spirit is enhanced, the flavour is released and the senses rejoice.
It mainly accompanies traditional Greek meze dishes with strong and sharp flavours, such as smoked, salt-cured meat and fish and spicy bites. Salt-cured sardines, herring, mackerel, fried cod with garlic mashed potatoes, as well as air-dried salami, loutza, apaki, meatballs, sausages and taramosalata, gigantes bean stew, peppers, grilled vegetables are some of its best “friends”.
It has received the following awards:
