About Riachi Winery & Distillery
Riachi Winery & Distillery is a family producer based in El-Khenchara in Mount Lebanon, with a distilling heritage passed down through several generations. Unusually broad in its range, Riachi crafts not only its traditional arak but also gin, vodka, whisky, wine and liqueurs, making it one of the more versatile drinks houses in the country.
The distillery’s arak remains at the heart of its identity, made from grapes and aniseed in the classic Lebanese fashion. Around that core, Riachi has developed a portfolio aimed at both local drinkers and export markets, presenting the full spectrum of Lebanese spirits under a single family name.
Why Riachi Matters
Riachi shows the range that a Lebanese family distillery can achieve, moving well beyond arak into international spirit categories while keeping production local. That breadth, combined with generations of accumulated know-how, makes it a distinctive ambassador for Lebanese craft distilling.
