@ALEXJAY - DTUBESNAP #2 - MAKING OF TSIPOURO !!!

The history of tsipouro making was discovered in the 14th century by Greek Orthodox monks living on Mount Athos. They were skilled wine makers and one day they decided to do things a bit differently. They first fermented and then distilled the grape skin and juice to produce a new type of alcoholic drink. The technique turned out to be very similar to the techniques used to produce French cognac. However, unlike cognac, tsipouro is a clear substance and its distinct taste derives from natural herbs and aromatic herbs. The monks of Athos were following their ancestors in creating tsipouro. Since ancient times, the Greeks have adored nature’s greatest gifts and applied it to many aspects of their everyday lives.
The monks kept their tsipouro recipe a secret for some time. Only a trusted few had access to this divine recipe which they used to produce and enjoy this Greek spirit during special village festivals and social events!
