Liqueurs & Spirits
GREECE’S UNUSUAL LIQUEURS ARE PRODUCTS THAT HAVE STOOD THE TEST OF TIME AND ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE GREEK TRADITIONS OF BOTH HOSPITALITY AND OF CURING AILMENTS, PARTICULARLY INDEGESTION. (HENCE THE WORD ‘DIGESTIVE’ USED TO DESCRIBE THEM.) FRUITS, NUTS, FLOWERS AND HERBS IN COMBINATION WITH ALCOHOL MAKE INTRIGUING LIQUEURS WITH MANY USES. ONCE THE DOMAIN OF MOTHERS AND GRANDMOTHERS, THERE IS NOW AN INDUSTRY OF ARTISANAL PRODUCERS WITH BOTH TRADITIONAL AND NEW BEVERAGES.
