ΤΕΝΤΟΥΡΑ VANTANA CLASSIC

The classic and timeless Tentoura recipe of Panagiotis Vantanas, who chose the best raw material since he started out his distillery.
He created it by soaking, mainly cinnamon and cloves in an alcoholic solution and enhancing it with Mavrodaphne of Patras, a sweet red wine. This extract was left to mature for some time before it got its characteristic aroma and flavour.
This very recipe of Panagiotis Vantanas is used to this day by his grandsons, Georgios and Panagiotis Tzoudas.
TENTOURA VANTANA CLASSIC, after its homogenisation and stabilisation in stainless containers, is then filtered and bottled in classic bottles with the signature label, an antique artistic gravure representation of Georgiou square of Patras and its fountains.
