Description

Ouzo 12 is a classic Greek liqueur that proudly showcases its Macedonian roots with a striking anise-flavored profile. With an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 38%, this liqueur offers a bold yet smooth experience, marked by its characteristic licorice notes. As you sip, expect a harmonious blend of sweet and herbal aromas that unfold into a uniquely refreshing taste. Ouzo 12's distinctive character makes it an ideal aperitif, perfect for preparing your palate for a meal or simply enjoying on its own. Traditionally, Ouzo 12 is served neat or with a splash of cold water. When mixed with water, the liqueur transforms into a milky, cloudy beverage, a fascinating visual cue to its authentic anise essence. For those who seek a chilled experience, Ouzo 12 can be enjoyed over ice, which not only cools the drink but also subtly tempers the intensity of the anise, allowing the sweeter undertones to shine through with every sip. Alternatively, try pairing it with a touch of soda for a fizzy twist that lightens the palate and refreshes the senses. Beyond traditional sipping, Ouzo 12 can be a versatile addition to your cocktail repertoire. It pairs beautifully with citrus flavors, making it an excellent choice for concocting a Greek twist on classic cocktails. Consider blending it into a refreshing ouzo mojito by muddling fresh mint and lime, or create a Mediterranean-inspired ouzo spritz with tonic water, lemon slices, and a sprig of fresh rosemary. These combinations highlight its unique flavor profile while providing a delightful new dimension to your cocktail creations. Whether you're enjoying it as part of a social gathering or as a personal indulgence, Ouzo 12 is a fine representation of Greek liqueur tradition, promising an authentic taste of Macedonia with every pour.

    Usually stick with Metaxa for Greek spirits but tried Ouzo 12 for a change. Sweeter and more licorice forward than what I'm used to, which worked better mixed with water over ice. Probably go back to Metaxa next time, but not bad.

    Response from CBC Liquors, Westford

    Glad you gave Ouzo 12 a spin. If you want something less sweet, maybe try Tsantali ouzo next round.
