i. Biography
Since 2005, Konstantinos Lazaris has owned Lazaris Distillery and Artisan Sweets, a Corfiot operation built on the island’s working traditions rather than nostalgia. The craft here treats local recipes as usable material: ingredients, remembered flavors, and inherited forms are kept active, then adjusted with enough restraint to keep them recognizably tied to Corfu.
Coming Up
Ownership of Lazaris Distillery and Artisan Sweets, held by Konstantinos Lazaris since 2005, carries both continuity and development. The work is organized around keeping traditional recipes in circulation while testing how familiar tastes can be repositioned without losing their source. That balance between preservation and adjustment is central to the business’s output.
Where They Are Now
A clear statement of purpose from Konstantinos Lazaris frames the company’s current direction: “Our company’s goal is that our products be part of a daily diet and that they ultimately provide enjoyment.” The target is practical rather than theatrical. These are products meant to sit inside ordinary routines, where craft is measured by repeat use, steady appeal, and a form of pleasure that does not rely on ceremony.
Signature
Konstantinos's signature wines include Merlin Gin, Lazaris Kumquat liqueur, Ouzo, Limoncello Liqueur 700ml, and Nougat Bites. Read together, the range moves between distillation and confectionery, citrus-led brightness and more familiar spirit formats. What links the names is not a single product type but a working method: local reference points, traditional forms, and small shifts in flavor combination that keep the line anchored in Corfu while allowing it to stay flexible.
In Their Words “In our company, we respect Corfu’s traditional recipes – but we often experiment with new flavor combinations.” “Our company’s goal is that our products be part of a daily diet and that they ultimately provide enjoyment.”
