It was over 100 years ago in 1910 when Eleni Giokarini established the very first distillery in Samos, Greece. The so-called "Widow’s ouzo" has been enchanting and charming the senses of all who have encountered it since. Giokarini ouzo has been produced in the same traditional manner for four generations. The distinctiveness of its recipe comes from the careful selection of pure, aromatic plants, herbs and seeds from the local Samian land. Distillate is of the highest purity and boiled in copper stills then mixed with the crystal clear, fresh Samos water.
