About this product

Godlike heritage. Modern mystique. A collector’s delight.
Majestic, golden, and radiant — the Metaxa 12 Star Zeus Limited Edition stands as the crowning glory of the Metaxa range. Crafted as a tribute to Zeus, the King of the Greek Gods, this exquisite expression embodies power, balance, and divine harmony. It is the spirit of Greece at its most refined — bold, elegant, and touched by myth.

Metaxa 12 Star Zeus is built upon the house’s finest aged distillates, matured in oak casks for up to twelve years, then harmoniously blended with select Muscat wines from Samos and a secret bouquet of Mediterranean botanicals. The result is a deep amber elixir that shimmers with complexity — a symphony of honey, orange peel, chocolate, and oak spice, softened by floral undertones that speak of the Aegean breeze.

On the palate, it reveals its grandeur in layers: velvety dried fruit, caramelised citrus, and roasted almonds wrapped in rich, oaky warmth. The finish is long and dignified, leaving whispers of spice, cocoa, and sweetness that echo like thunder from Mount Olympus.

For connoisseurs in Ireland, Metaxa 12 Star Zeus Limited Edition offers more than a drink — it’s an experience, an encounter with Greek artistry and mythology. Each bottle is a collector’s piece, celebrating the divine craftsmanship and radiant spirit that have made Metaxa an enduring symbol of Mediterranean excellence.

Why we love it:
Metaxa Zeus is where legendary flavour meets collectible spectacle. The spirit remains classic and refined, while the bold, UV-glow bottle makes it a standout centrepiece—and a striking gift or display piece.
