Small museum about the production of local Ouzo. Entrance is free of charge. The staff was very friendly and explained everything about the history of making ouzo and of how they make it today. This museum is part of a family business that is already making ouzo for 6 generations. You can see old distillation kettles, bottles, glasses etc. Also many pictures. You get a small tour through the current factory. They produce for the local market, but also export to several countries. I'm from The Netherlands and they told me they export for example to Maastricht and Tilburg. At the end of the factory tour you can taste their 4 different ouzos. And of course you can buy their products as well. Regular bottles, but also gift boxes.

The staff at the Greek Ouzo Barbayanni Museum were incredibly helpful, welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable, making our visit a truly pleasant experience. At the museum, we learned about the rich history of the Barbayanni family, the distillery, and how the distillation process is used to create Ouzo. During the factory tour, they provided us with clear explanations of the different Barbayanni Ouzo varieties, based on their alcohol content, and highlighted the distinctions between Ouzo and Turkish rakı. We also had the chance to taste the Ouzo ourselves. If you find yourself near the beautiful town of Plomari, don’t miss the opportunity to stop by and taste this iconic drink.

Barbayanni Ouzo Museum and Factory is a must-visit for anyone interested in Greek culture and tradition. The experience of seeing the ouzo production process up close is truly fascinating. The guided tour walks you through each step of how this iconic drink is made, from distillation to bottling, with detailed explanations that bring the history of Barbayanni to life. The museum is rich in heritage, showcasing artifacts and stories behind this family-run business. It’s a great opportunity to learn and taste a piece of authentic Greek tradition. Highly recommended!

I was amazed by the smell of anise. It was amazing to taste it here. If you come this far, don't hesitate to go or not, you should definitely go. They give away booklets in every language in the museum that tell the life and foundation of ouzo. The authorities explain how ouzo is made downstairs. While you are visiting here, the employees continue to produce and package ouzo. A wonderful atmosphere. If you want, you can taste 4 different types of ouzo there. If you want, you can buy it. You should definitely go.

A great history of ouzo. Free entrance. If you want, in the upper floor you can see historical improvement of Barbayanni factory and if you want a guidance a guy helps you. In the ground floor, you can see distillation and packaging of the ouzos. The gentleman who tells us the ouzo production history was very nice and he knows all of the rakı brands in Turkey! 😅 he told us to ouzo drinking customs. You can taste the ouzos (including %42-46-47-48 alcohol) and you can buy them!

Best ouzo of Lesvos and Greece! All of the products are awesome but my favorite is Evzon. Very very friendly family owners and also the workers are so friendly and nice. Tour guide Yanni is a excellent man, he is explaning all the details of ouzo and Barbayanni. The museum is also amazing. Definetly recommend a visit to the factory and the museum. Also you can test the ouzo's at your visit and buy as much as you want.
