Wines
Lebanese wines have a rich history dating back 6000 years and are well known for their unique blends of indigenous varietals with French grapes. The heart of Lebanese winemaking lies within the high altitudes of Bekaa Valley where a unique continental microclimate ensure grapes achieve balance and complexity.

Beers
Translating to “diamond” in Arabic, Almaza is Lebanon’s best-selling and most iconic beer. Almaza Lebanese Pilsner is an easy drinking beer with a crisp, light refreshing profile and clear, sparkling golden colour. Light to medium bodied with smooth texture and soft carbonation.

Spirits
In Lebanon, arak-making is customarily a family affair, with secret recipes passed down from generation to generation. Arak is a grape spirit distinct for its aniseed flavour and clear appearance that turns milky white when mixed with water.
Chateau Kefraya
Located at on the foothills of Mount Barouk in the West Bekaa Valley, the Chateau Kefraya vineyard spreads over 300 hectares of terraced slopes at 1000 metres above the Mediterranean Sea. Chateau Kefraya wines are notorious for their unique blends, as owner Michel de Bustros says: “The work of art results from the art of blending. Just like a painter combines colours to create a painting, the oenologist blends grape varieties to obtain harmonious wines of distinctive identity.”
