Varvayanni Distilleries is a family-owned ouzo distillery founded in 1860 by Efstathios Varvayannis in Plomari, on the island of Lesvos, Greece. Efstathios, born in 1805 in the Cyclades, brought the art of distillation and the first copper still from Istanbul, establishing the foundation of the family business.

Over five generations, the Varvayanni family has refined the craft of ouzo production, blending traditional techniques with modern innovations. The distillery produces five distinct types of ouzo, each crafted with high-quality anise and other select ingredients, combined with crystal-clear water from Plomari, ensuring exceptional flavor and quality. 

"Ouzo Veto" is a renowned Greek distillery based in Mytilene on the island of Lesvos, known for producing high-quality ouzo since 1892. Its founder, Georgios Spentzas, honed his distillation skills in Pergamon, Asia Minor, under a special firman from the Sultan, establishing a family tradition in ouzo production.

Over the years, the distillery has remained true to traditional production methods while incorporating modern techniques to ensure exceptional product quality. "Ouzo Veto" is distinguished by its rich, balanced, and slightly sweet aromatic profile, featuring a distinctive intense finish that reflects its "maritime" character.
