We are distilling since 1893 Our history starts in northeastern Greece and in particular in the small city of Komotini, where ... people true to traditions started to produce and bottle ouzo in rudimentary facilities. For years, the following generations continued the production in family distilleries supplying the entire region with extra quality products. Far-sighted business aspirations made 17 small distillers to associate and create the DISTILLERY- WINERY OF THRACE S.A., located in the city of Komotini and using the facilities of a small distillery. The increasing demand for products results in the construction of the company’s current plant located in the industrial zone. The production process is modernized and the first distribution network is set up. The large recognition of our products in the region of Thrace leads us to take the next steps, thus setting up a branch office in Thessaloniki and expanding our market beyond the restricted limits of the region. In 1980 for the first time, the Thracian ouzo crosses the Greek borders. The first bottles find their place on the shelves of German stores. The Distillery-Winery of Thrace S.A. expands its production activity to Distillates and Spirits. The production of Tsipouro (grape marc) starts. Today… The Distillery-Winery of Thrace S.A. is one of the largest businesses in Greece producing Ouzo and Tsipouro, with a production of 9,500,000 bottles of 0.7 l. yearly, and is among the leaders in the field of exports. Drawing on our history, on the attachment to our job, on the respect for our customers and on the devotion to our family traditions, we continue to distill and contemplate our future with optimism and great assurance. read more
