Production & Heritage

Ouzo holds Protected Designation of Origin status under European Union law — only spirits produced in Greece and Cyprus may legally bear the name. Zobras Ouzo follows this proud tradition, distilling select anise and herbs through copper pot stills to capture the full aromatic spectrum of the botanicals. The result is a crystal-clear spirit that transforms into a milky, opalescent white when water or ice is added — the hallmark "louching" effect caused by the natural anise oils binding with the water. The generous 1-liter format makes it ideal for entertaining or for stocking a bar that takes Mediterranean spirits seriously.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh and inviting on the nose with prominent sweet anise and licorice at the forefront, followed by delicate herbal undertones. Clean and aromatic, with no harsh edges.

Taste: Medium-bodied with a smooth, rounded entry. The anise character is bold but well-integrated, supported by subtle floral and herbal notes that add complexity without overpowering. A gentle natural sweetness rounds out the mid-palate.

Finish: Clean and refreshing with a lingering anise warmth. The finish is smooth and approachable — long enough to satisfy, without any harshness. Best served chilled over ice or with a splash of cold water alongside traditional Greek mezze, seafood, or olives and cheese.
