Description
Mavromatis Distillery is a family-owned business with deep roots in Corfu’s tradition. Its first workshop was established in 1965 in the city of Corfu, specializing in processing kumquat to produce sweets and liqueurs. In 1984, the company relocated to the road leading to Paleokastritsa, and in 2008, it moved into a state-of-the-art facility. Today, its production absorbs 80% of the island’s total kumquat yield.
With 300 of its own kumquat trees and utilizing produce from local growers, the company creates premium products such as kumquat liqueur and traditional spoon sweet. Initially focused on processing and bottling kumquat liqueur, Mavromatis Distillery has since expanded its range to include various new products.
The undisputed star of its offerings is the red kumquat (kumquat) liqueur, a drink with a distinctive flavour and unique aroma crafted from the fruit’s peel.
