The Kythrea Single Grain Malt Whiskey is a distinctive handcrafted whiskey produced in Cyprus by Aphrodite Distillery, combining traditional whiskey-making techniques with Mediterranean character. Matured in ex-Cognac oak casks, this small-batch release delivers a rich and warming profile filled with sweet spice, toasted oak, caramel, and dried fruit notes.

This unfiltered Single Grain Malt Whiskey presents a balance of toasted oak and hints of vanilla, caramel, toffee, and butterscotch flavours blended with hidden spice undertones that reveal themselves towards the end. Aged in French ex-Cognac oak casks, it delivers a rich, full-bodied whiskey experience crafted entirely in Cyprus.


Matured in Ex-Cognac Oak Casks

Kythrea is aged in carefully selected ex-Cognac oak casks, allowing the spirit to absorb layers of sweet oak influence, gentle spice, and elegant fruit complexity. The Cognac cask maturation enhances the whiskey’s natural softness while adding depth and warmth throughout the palate.

The Mediterranean climate of Cyprus also contributes to accelerated maturation, helping develop a bold and expressive whiskey despite its youthful age statement.


Rich and Warming Tasting Experience

  • Nose: Caramel, honeyed oak, vanilla, orange peel, and soft baking spices.
  • Palate: Smooth toffee sweetness, dried fruits, toasted oak, cinnamon spice, and creamy malt.
  • Finish: Medium-long with lingering oak spice, soft sweetness, and warming fruit notes.

The result is a smooth yet characterful whiskey that offers something different from traditional Scotch styles while remaining approachable and enjoyable for both newcomers and experienced whiskey enthusiasts.


Designed for the Curious Whiskey Explorer

Kythrea’s presentation perfectly reflects its modern craft identity, featuring a premium minimalist bottle design with natural cork closure and warm copper-toned labelling. Bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered, and retaining its natural colour, it offers an authentic tasting experience inspired by both whiskey tradition and Cypriot heritage.

Whether enjoyed neat, over ice, or as part of a relaxed evening dram, this bottle delivers a memorable whiskey journey beyond the usual whiskey regions.
