Since 1880, the Kaloyiannis family distillery has been producing its famous ouzo, which has become a symbol of Greek tradition and craftsmanship across generations. Ouzo is produced by distilling pure alcohol with aniseed and various herbs such as fennel, coriander and mastic, which give it its distinctive flavour.

Ouzo 12 owes its name to a particular cask: back then, customers wanted to be served from cask no. 12 because it contained the finest ouzo. Today, Ouzo 12 is the best-known ouzo worldwide and a symbol of quality and tradition. Produced through double distillation, this process guarantees purity and removes unwanted substances from the ouzo, ensuring it impresses not only with its flavour but also with its digestibility. A headache the next day should not be an issue.

Ouzo 12 is characterised by a rich, natural flavour derived exclusively from distilled seeds such as fennel, star anise, aniseed, cardamom, cinnamon and nutmeg. More than 5 per cent of the final distillate consists of these aromatic seeds, which lend the ouzo its distinctive, spicy depth.

Tasting Note

Ideal as an aperitif served over ice with a little water or soda water to allow the flavours to develop perfectly. Equally excellent as a digestif after a hearty Greek meal.
