Knife Command 2017translated

October 2, 2026 · 1 min read

The Holy Monastery of Machira, reviving its tradition, ages its own Commandery in oak barrels and from selected grapes. Rich in aroma, with excellent taste and quality, the Commandaria of the Monastery of Machira is a unique experience for wine lovers!

Koumandaria is the oldest sweet wine in Europe with at least 5,500 years of history. It is unique in its kind and produced exclusively in Cyprus. It is mentioned by Hesiod (800 BC) as "Cypriot Nama" and King Solomon in the Song of Songs praises Cyprus, its grapes and its wine.

You can get it from the Holy Monastery of Machira.
