The 100cl Ouzo 12 Liqueur is a perfect celebration of Greek tradition in the world of spirits. This distilled beverage has a history that dates back to 1880 when its original formula was perfected and subsequently marketed from the early 1900s. The name "12" refers to the number of the original barrel that was selected by the creators as the best for its balance and superior quality.

Ouzo 12 is renowned for its clear and distinct presence of anise, which blends harmoniously with traces of other herbs and spices, such as mastic and fennel, creating a rich and complex flavor. On the palate, it is smooth yet at the same time possesses a vigorous character that reflects its robust alcohol content.

This ouzo stands out for its versatility. It can be enjoyed neat, with ice, or as part of a variety of cocktails, offering an exotic appeal to the flavors of the Mediterranean in mixology preparations. It is also traditionally accompanied by small dishes of meze, adding a convivial touch to the consumption of this spirit.

Visually, Ouzo 12 is presented in an elegant bottle with a traditional design that immediately harks back to its Hellenic roots. It is an excellent option for those looking to experience a unique liqueur, encompassing centuries of distilling tradition.
