Makryonitis Syros Distillery
A word of the master


About this producer
Makryonitis Syros Distillery is a family-run micro-distillery founded in 2017 on the island of Syros, in the heart of the Cyclades. The island’s dry, windy climate and strong maritime influence shape a long-standing tradition of local distillation, rooted in wild herbs, citrus and fruit. The distillery continues this heritage with a small-scale, artisanal approach focused on authenticity and precision.
Working exclusively with local raw materials, each spirit is produced in limited batches using slow fermentations and careful distillation. No artificial flavourings are added, allowing the character of the fruit, pomace and botanicals to shine through. Combining traditional Greek techniques with a contemporary mindset, Makryonitis represents a new generation of Cycladic distillers dedicated to terroir and craftsmanship.
Chaque distillat est élaboré en petites quantités, à partir de marcs cycladiques, de fruits et de plantes de l’île. Les fermentations lentes, les distillations soignées et l’absence d’arômes artificiels permettent de préserver l’identité du terroir. Entre tradition grecque et savoir-faire contemporain, Makryonitis incarne une nouvelle génération de distillateurs attachés à la pureté du produit et à l’expression du lieu.
