Kontogiannis Family Organic Petimezi Grape Syrup

Pure organic grape molasses, known as Petimezi in Greece is a 100% natural sweetener, contains no additives or added sugar and is produced from mavroudi, savvatiano, roditis grapes. The aroma of light honey and fresh grapes is unbeatable.

Great Taste Awards Judges commented: “Lovely rich dried grape aroma. Nicely viscous. There is good acidity to balance the syrupy sweetness, and the flavour of dried grapes is distinctive. We agree this would work well in all the suggested ways, and also as the base for a sparkling drink or alcoholic cocktail.”

Carefully concentrated grape juice produced in small batches following an artisanal process. Every September in Corinth, Greece, in the family vineyards, all ripe bunches are harvested to create this delicious alternative sweetener. No additives, no preservatives no artificial colours are added. This pure gem of the Greek gastronomic heritage, comes from certified organic and biodynamic grapes and is mildly processed in low temperatures in order to retain all grape aromas and flavours.

Comes in numbered bottles.

The way that the rope is surrounding the bottleneck resonates the way that a vine tendril does a spiral when it grows.

The red line represents the heat that is needed to condense the grape must into grape syrup.

All the process for decorating the bottle is 100% made by hand.

Try this thick sweet syrup which is perfect for adding to your pastry, baking, pancakes, porridge, cereals, your hot drink instead of sugar, on your salad, to caramelise meat or poultry or just over your ice cream!
