Lebanon's Rebel Whisky from Mount Lebanon
Riachi has distilled in Mount Lebanon since 1839, and Levant Heights is its boundary-pushing whisky line: a mash of malted barley and wheat, triple distilled in the house copper pot still and rested in white oak until the grain's natural sweetness and spice come together. It is a genuine Levantine single-distillery whisky — a category almost no other producer on earth can claim.

Tasting Notes
Soft wheat sweetness and malt biscuit on the nose with white oak and a flicker of spice; the palate is smooth and balanced — honeyed grain, vanilla and gentle oak — finishing clean with warm cereal sweetness.
How to Enjoy
Neat or with a single cube so the wheat softness stays in front. It also makes a distinctive, grain-forward highball with soda and a lemon twist.
