Description

Taste a truly unique Greek liqueur with Castanelli, an artisanal creation from the island of Lesvos. This liqueur is made from Ouzo from the famous village of Plomari, chestnuts grown in the Agiasos region in the heart of the island, and local honey, adding a touch of natural sweetness to this exceptional drink.

The production process, meticulous and respectful of tradition, begins with the distillation of chestnuts impregnated with ouzo, to which Lesvos honey is then added. The liqueur is then aged in stainless steel vats before being bottled. The result is a brilliant liqueur with a rich, seductive aromatic profile, perfect for lovers of authentic flavors.

This Castanelli doesn’t just taste exceptional; it also tells a story. Grown in chestnut forests planted 2,000 years ago during the Roman Empire, these chestnuts are a heritage of the Agiasos region, located 700 meters above sea level on Mount Olympus in Lesvos. Honey is produced locally by beekeepers who move their hives when the chestnut trees blossom in spring, adding to the richness of this artisanal beverage.

This 200 ml tin, adorned with an olive wood stopper hand-carved by a local artisan, is a true work of art, celebrating the collaboration between farmers, beekeepers, sculptors and distillers from Lesvos. Whether for a gift or a special tasting, this Castanelli liqueur is a pride of Greek craft tradition, combining history and expertise.
