Tentoura "Castro" is the most famous liqueur of Patras and Achaia. Its name which is our registered trademark, comes from the Latin "tinctura" meaning tincture extract. According to tradition, the recipe for tentoura dates back to the Venetian Era of around the 15th Century.
Tentoura owes its aroma to extracts of fruits and spices, especially cinnamon and cloves but also nutmeg, citron, mandarin, mastiha of Chios Island. The people of Patras used to call Tentoura "a shot of fragrance", thanks to its aroma, and it was usually consumed after a good meal as a digestive liqueur.
Tentoura combines well in cocktails with brandy or rum. Dry fruits, walnuts and doughnuts make an excellent accompaniment. Added to your tea or your coffee, a shot of tentoura gives it a distinctive, aromatic taste.
