Brandy tasting in Pissouri

 The G. Theophanous Winery was the venue for a brandy tasting afternoon in Pissouri. Along with brandy tasting the guests also enjoyed some lovely platters of food.

The tasting room was intimate, with stone walls and wooden beams that told stories of time and tradition. The air was infused with the sweet, caramel-like aroma of aged brandy, mixed with subtle notes of oak and dried fruits.

Their host, George, guided them  through the tasting, starting with the youngest, lightest brandy. It was smooth and spirited, leaving a fleeting warmth as it slid down. 

Interesting fact: This winery is the closest to the sea in Cyprus,  less than a mile from the Mediterranean sea.
