Serving notes

LionSpirit Zivania Supremo, with its smooth and refined qualities, is versatile in how it can be enjoyed. Here are some drinking suggestions that highlight the best ways to appreciate this distinctive spirit:

  1. Sipped Neat: To fully appreciate the pure and refined flavors of Zivania Supremo, it is best served neat. Chill the spirit before serving to enhance its smoothness and bring out the subtle nuances in its flavor profile. This traditional method allows you to experience the spirit’s gentle flow and clear, beautiful nose without any distractions.
  2. As a Digestif: Zivania is traditionally consumed as a digestif after meals. Serving Zivania Supremo in this way can help settle the stomach and provide a soothing finish to a hearty meal. Its clean, warming finish makes it perfect for this purpose.
  3. In Cocktails: Although Zivania is less commonly used in cocktails than other spirits, its clean and strong profile makes it an excellent base for innovative mixes. Try it in place of vodka or gin in cocktails that can benefit from its distinctive characteristics. For instance, a “Zivania Martini” with a splash of dry vermouth and an olive can be a delightful twist.
  4. With Traditional Meze: In Cyprus, Zivania is often paired with a variety of meze—small dishes such as halloumi cheese, olives, and cured meats. The spirit’s robustness complements the salty and savory flavors of these dishes, making it a fantastic social drink.
  5. With Coffee or Dessert: The crisp and smooth nature of Zivania Supremo also pairs beautifully with coffee or a simple dessert like baklava or fresh fruit. The combination of a strong coffee and a shot of Zivania can be particularly pleasing.

These drinking suggestions aim to enhance the experience of LionSpirit Zivania Supremo, whether you are looking for a traditional or more modern way to enjoy this unique spirit.

Master Distiller's notes

At LionSpirit Distillery, we take great pride in crafting Zivania Supremo, a spirit that encapsulates the essence of Cyprus’s distilling traditions while introducing a level of refinement suited to the modern palate. Made from a careful selection of the finest local grapes, Zivania Supremo is distilled with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring each batch achieves the highest quality standards.

Our process begins with the selection of high-quality local white and red grapes, which are known for their high sugar content and aromatic potential. These grapes are harvested at the peak of their ripeness to capture the full spectrum of flavors and aromas. Following fermentation, the wine is distilled in traditional copper pot stills, a method that has been used in Cyprus for centuries.

Zivania Supremo is then distilled multiple times to achieve a purity and smoothness that is rare in traditional Zivania. This careful distillation process ensures that only the finest and cleanest spirit is produced, characterized by its crystal-clear appearance and silky texture. After distillation, Zivania Supremo is allowed to rest, which helps to soften the spirit and enhance its natural flavors without the influence of oak aging, preserving the spirit’s transparent character and delicate fruit notes.

The result is a supremely smooth spirit with a beautiful clear nose of fresh grapes and a hint of citrus, making it both invigorating and easy to drink. On the palate, Zivania Supremo flows gently, with a clean, warm finish that invites contemplation and enjoyment.

LionSpirit Zivania Supremo is best enjoyed neat for a true taste of its elegance or used as a refined base in sophisticated cocktails. It is a tribute to the time-honored traditions of Cypriot distillation, crafted for those who appreciate the finer things in life.
