KEO brews the island's favourite lager beer and a wide range of red, white and sherry style wines, as well as dessert wines and local versions of international fizzy drinks and mixers. The tour of KEO's modern winery and brewery in Limassol takes about 30 minutes, followed by a tasting session, and is a great way to get to know Cypriot vintages.
Carlsberg
The quirky tour of the Cyprus subsidiary of the huge Danish brewing company includes not only a fascinating glimpse of the brewing and bottling process but admission to a natural history museum and mini-zoo within the brewery grounds.
ETKO
ETKO's best-known product is its Emva sherry-style wine. However, imminent membership of the European Union will mean the winery (along with its rivals) must re-brand some of its products, as EU rules insist sherry may only come from Spain. A tasting follows the tour.
Agios Ambrosios
Ambelida and Anassa (red and white) are the leading labels from this ecological winery, which prides itself on using the minimum of pesticides, fertilizers and additives.
Sterna Winery
The Paphos region has been famous for wine since antiquity, and a visit to this vineyard is a great way to try some of the best. Among the exhibits is a 200-year-old copper still that continues to be used to produce zivania, Cyprus's high-octane moonshine.
Monte Royia
The monks of Chrysorrogia- tissa monastery grow their own grapes on the hillsides around Panagia and produce an excellent, dry white, Agios Andronikos.
Tsiakkas Winery
Tsiakkas has won awards for its red, white and rose wines, made by blending traditional grape varieties with foreign imports. Their winery is worth visiting just for its setting, high in the Troodos mountains.
Marki Winery
Look out for the reliable and well-priced "Kilani Village" red and white wines from this village winery.
