About Commandaria St. John
Commandaria St. John is KEO's sweet amber wine, made from sun-dried Mavro and Xynisteri grapes grown on the eastern slopes of the Troodos mountains, in the fourteen villages allowed to use the appellation. The pressed juice ferments naturally in wooden vats and ages in old oak in KEO's isothermic cellars, blended across vintages on the solera system. The knights of St John, who carried it through the kingdoms of Europe during the Crusades, gave Commandaria its name.

About the owner: KEO
KEO is a publicly listed company headquartered in Limassol, Cyprus, founded in 1927. Brandtree records 17 brands under its control, and it is listed as CSE: KEO.
KEO is the largest drinks company in Cyprus, formed in 1927 and quoted on the Alternative Market of the Cyprus Stock Exchange. Its own accounts split its business in two: vinifying grapes, brewing beer, making juice and bottling natural mineral water, which it sells at home and in more than thirty countries; and importing and distributing drinks and canned food belonging to other companies. That second activity is why much of what KEO carries — Jim Beam, Laurent-Perrier, Erdinger, Kopparberg — is on its list but is not its to own.
🇨🇾 Commandaria St. John and other Cypriot brands
