Brettos bar, Historic distillery and bar in Plaka, Greece.
Inside Brettos, hundreds of colored bottles line the walls from floor to ceiling, illuminated against wooden barrels and the original cauldron.
Founded in 1909, Michael Brettos established this distillery using traditional recipes from Smyrna to create ouzo, brandy, and various liqueurs.
Visitors can sample over 50 different Greek liqueurs, including mastiha, limoncello, and watermelon, alongside 200 different Greek wine varieties.
The establishment opens daily and functions both as a bar for tasting sessions and a retail store for purchasing bottles of spirits.
The collection of illuminated bottles creates such a distinctive interior that Brettos ranks among Athens' most photographed locations after the Acropolis.
