| Hi, my friend has just come back from Ayia Napa in the South and bought a bottle of Keo Brandy, very nice - can you buy this in the North around Kyrenia. Regards Mysteron |

| Not seen any in Girnie but you could try the big Lemar in Lefkosa they may have it as they have a huge selection of wines and spirits (compared to the other Lemar stores anyway). Or if in Lefkosa walk across and get some in Debenhams downstairs in the foodhall. Karen |

| I would seriously doubt it would be sold here when there are equally ........ well,,,, similar tastes available here. All the SAFA brands for example. Do not think you find any of them in Orphanannies!! |

| Mysteron, does the bottle have the number 31 on the label, that seems to be the most popular one.I dont think you can buy it in the north. Any market in the south will have it. They do serve it in most bars though. ( or they used to) you just ask for 31 (OTUZ BIR). |

| Thanks for all your replies, if I can't get it in the north will have to go to Nicosia and get a taxi across the border - thats if I can bring the Keo back into the North. If not will have to nobble my mate and take all of his swap for a bottle of whiskey which I will have to owe him. We have a secret whiskey drinker at my house (hic). |
