Description
The Aged Kardasis Tsipouro is a fine distillate from black muscat grapes, aged in French and American oak barrels. The distillate remains in the barrels for a period of 18 – 24 months. The residence time depends on the type and the level of burning of the barrel. The ageing process changes the nature of tsipouro, giving it finer aromas, richer taste and a very intense aftertaste. The final blend constitutes an exceptional distillate, soft and full, which surprises pleasantly. In it dominate aromas of fresh fruit, vanilla, citrus fruits, as well as of spices, mocha chocolate and a smoky aroma.
PAIRINGS
It can be consumed without water, at a low temperature, in a distillate glass (tulip glass) as a digestif following a good meal. It can also be served in an old-fashioned glass, at a cool temperature, accompanied by spicy nuts or dried fruits (prunes, apricots, figs etc.). It goes best with bitter chocolate with orange filling. It can also be used as a base for imaginative cocktails.
