Ouzo 12
Ouzo 12 is Greece's most iconic ouzo, first produced in 1880 by the Kaloyannis brothers in Constantinople. After moving to the Athenian port of Piraeus in 1919, the brothers produced various styles of ouzo, but the one preferred by connoisseurs came from barrel number 12. So, as the legend goes, Ouzo 12 was born—becoming the best-known, top-selling ouzo in Greece and the most famous ouzo around the world. Why You'll Love It This is the ouzo that set the standard. Over the years, Ouzo 12 has remained true to its original recipe, delivering the full, distinctive taste that made it legendary. The spirit's characteristic flavour comes from carefully selected herbs and spices that create a complex, aromatic profile. Whether you're a seasoned ouzo drinker or discovering it for the first time, Ouzo 12 delivers authentic Greek character in every glass. Production Crafted using the original 1880 recipe with carefully selected botanicals including aniseed, star anise, fennel, nutmeg, coriander, cinnamon, and cardamom. These herbs and spices are distilled in traditional copper pot stills, and the resulting spirit is placed in barrels to marry the complex flavours until they attain the full, distinctive taste for which Ouzo 12 is famous. Tasting Notes Clear and bright, turning milky white when water or ice is added. The nose is aromatic with pronounced anise, sweet liquorice, and warming spice notes. The palate is full-bodied and complex with layers of aniseed, fennel, cinnamon, and cardamom, finishing smooth and refreshing. Perfect Serve Best enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or mixed long with ice-cold water, lemonade, or soda. Pairs beautifully with Greek mezze, grilled seafood, olives, and Mediterranean dishes.
