Three very good excuses for the drive.

Platres is about 45 minutes from Limassol. Come for one thing, or make an afternoon of all three.

Wine, spirit & place

Rooted here. Restless by nature.

LionSpirit grew from a family winery in Kato Platres. We work with indigenous Cypriot grapes—including Xynisteri, Maratheftiko, Mavro, Lefkada, Vasilissa and Promara—and press, ferment and bottle on the estate.

Our distillery brought the next chapter: zivania, gin, brandy, Commandaria-cask whisky and a collection of remarkably smooth liqueurs. Innovation is never rushed here. It is refined, one small batch at a time.

Our story: from Lambouri to LionSpirit

The distillery

Cyprus tradition, with a spirited streak.

From the island’s iconic grape spirit to bottles shaped by our Commandaria casks, every range has a distinct reason to exist.

01

Kingfisher Gin

Cyprus’s first gin, introduced in 2019 and still made at LionSpirit. Bright, botanical and made with the island in mind.

Discover gin  ↗
02

LionSpirit Whisky

Cyprus’s first whisky, introduced in early 2022. We continue to mature it here in former Commandaria casks.

Discover whisky  ↗
03

Premium Brandy

Grape brandy given depth, warmth and elegance by Commandaria-seasoned oak.

Discover brandy  ↗

Anna Kornelia

Smooth, authentic and rather hard to forget.

Eleven small-batch liqueurs, from Coconut and Coffee to Cherry Brandy and Blue Curaçao. Natural ingredients, elegant character and unmistakable colour—made and bottled at LionSpirit.
