Description

In Istanbul (Constantinople) at the crossroads of East and West, of civilizations and cuisines, Thanassis Gatsios was inducted into the aromatic world of herbs and the secrets of traditional distillation.
In 1878 he returned to Syrrako, Ioannina, to the historic village, and founded the first distillery in Epirus. There, with recipes from Constantinople blended harmoniously with zeal and skill, created ouzo, tsipouro, brandy and liqueurs of various flavours, all of excellent quality.
