Looking at a prickly pear tree, all one sees is a cactus plant full of fruits with thorns. Amorgion Distillery saw beyond the obvious. The distillate from prickly pears and grapes were combined with honey and herbs and gave the… Mekila! Lovers of the genre will find in the Greek white and yellow Mekila a special taste that will excite them!
The drink is produced from prickly pears, which are the wild fruits of the prickly pear cactus, which grows on Amorgos. The prickly pear comes from Mexico, and was brought to Europe by Spanish navigators in the year 1500 AD, from where it spread rapidly to the Mediterranean countries. This wild but rich in flavor and aroma fruit was the inspiration for Amorgian Mekila, which excites those who try it for its exotic taste!
