Crafted by Aristides Distilling: Pioneers of Cyprus Whisky
Aristides Distilling proudly leads the Cyprus Whisky movement, and our Kythrea series stands as a testament to our commitment to excellence. Introducing the first-ever Single Malt Cyprus Whisky, born from our signature six-row barley, aptly named “Kythrea.” Malted, mashed-in, fermented, distilled, and aged in ex-bourbon American oak casks at our distillery in Tseri, Nicosia, this whisky boasts a deep amber-ruby hue, a rich aromatic nose, and a tantalizingly smooth, fruity, sweet, and zesty character.
A Symphony of Flavors Unveiled
Unfiltered and undeniably unique, our Single Malt Whisky is a harmonious blend of toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, toffee, and butterscotch. The ex-bourbon casks impart hidden spice undertones that reveal themselves in a crescendo towards the end, creating a sensory symphony that captivates the palate. The meticulous combination of local six-row barley “Kythrea” and wheat varieties results in a rich, full-bodied grain whiskey—an exclusive creation that’s malted, fermented, distilled, and aged entirely in Cyprus.
