Our background
In 1850 George Callicounis established in Kalamata in Southern Greece, the first steam powered distillery with the best known machinery at the time. He combined imagination with knowledge and using a big variety of aromatic plants, roots and fruits from the vast vegetation of Southern Greece, started creating original distillates and extracts with original tastes and flavors.
Old Sport, the first premium greek gin, is a unique combination of botanicals and Mastiha, the resin of the native Mastic trees on Chios island, the unique in the world ʻtears of Chiosʼ.
