Kitron

Kitron is a citron liqueur produced on the Greek island of Naxos.

The green variety is sweeter and contains less alcohol, containing 30% ABV.

The yellow-colored variety is the strongest at 36% ABV, and has the least sugar.

The drink was briefly fashionable during the early 1980s, but today it cannot be easily found outside Naxos due to a shortage of citron trees.

Kitron has a distinctive citrusy aroma and flavor, and it is traditionally enjoyed as a digestif.
