Description
The tsipouro without anise is the extract in which someone can recognize the aroma of the grapes from which it was produced. In this particular tsipouro, you can discern the strong aroma of muscatel aromas of rose in blossom, of caramel and butter. The taste is soft and fruity. You can drink it without water in 12-15o C, accompanied by delicacies (meat, pickles, spicy salads) of the traditional Greek cuisine.

Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains is a white wine grape of Greek origin that is a member of the Muscat family of Vitis vinifera. Its name comes from its characteristic small berry size and tight clusters. It is known under a variety of local names such as Moscato Bianco, Muscat Blanc, Muscat Canelli, Muscat de Frontignan, Muscat de Lunel, Muscat d’Alsace, Muskateller, Moscatel de Grano Menudo, Moscatel rosé and Sárgamuskotály. While technically a white grape, there are strains of Muscat Blanc à Petits Grains vines that produce berries that are pink or reddish-brown. The same vine could potentially produce berries of one colour one year and a different colour the next. Variants, where the differing grape colour is stable, are typically classified as separate grape varieties Muscat Rouge à Petit Grains for red skin colour and Muscat Rose à Petit Grains for pink skin colour.
Producer
Kardasis is a family distillery based in Tyrnavos, Thessaly — the birthplace of Greek ouzo, first distilled there in 1856. The Kardasis family's connection to the local vine trade goes back to the late 19th century, and the company itself, now in its third generation, was formally founded in 1991 by Konstantinos Kardasis. The family farms around 125 acres of its own vineyard, planted mainly with Muscat, which forms the aromatic base of its ouzo and tsipouro.
