Our Products
Before you dive in to our beautiful product selection, there’s a few things you need to know about clear ice.
Clear ice is produced using a special slow freezing technology called directional freezing, which allows the ice to clear itself of air bubbles and impurities as it freezes, producing a crystal clear, robust block of ice.
Due to its special properties, clear ice melts more slowly than other ice, providing consistent cooling and limited dilution, which makes it the perfect tool to serve good tasting drinks cold but not watery. On the topic of taste, due to the removal of impurities including minerals, clear ice is completely without taste which allows your drinks to shine while providing the cooling and visual element. Our ice is made from bottled water, further ensuring that our product is of predictable, excellent quality.
Cubes
Big or small, clear ice cubes are the perfect addition to any quality drink or cocktail.
Just one cube will keep a glass of whiskey cool for up to 30 minutes while slowly smoothing the taste of the drink.
Smaller cubes can also be stacked on top of each other in a highball glass, providing options for creative bartenders to place fruits and garnish around and between them to create striking, picture worthy cocktails.
Custom sizes available between 3 cm – 6 cm

Collins Cubes
Also known as clear ice bars or sticks, Collins cubes are an important element of carefully curated cocktails served in a highball or other tall glasses.
Collins cubes are especially loved by Japanese bartenders for their simple, clean look that supports beautiful minimalist cocktail compositions. Elegance achieved with clear ice and just a touch of garnish.
Our ice can be fitted to your preferred measurements making sure that it is the right size for the visual of the drink while being the right volume required for your specific cocktail recipe.

Ice Shards
Our commitment to quality doesn’t end with the cubes. Clear ice’s special properties go beyond presentability and good taste.
Due to its robust structure, clear ice doesn’t break apart easily, offering a solution for cocktails that are prepared in the shaker and meant to be served cold without ice. Other ice tends to shatter during the shaking process and pollute the finished drink with tiny ice pieces. Cooling your cocktails with clear ice prevents this, while also maintaining its usual qualities of moderate dilution and lack of added taste.
That is why we offer our less-than-perfect pieces of ice at a discount and further help you make better cocktails.

Our Service
At Ice VII Ltd. we are committed to our product and promise to bring dependable quality ice to you. Our ice is made from pure table water to ensure consistently good quality, and it is made in a small workshop in Victoria, Gozo that is up to the highest catering standards.
Our ice is frozen in blocks which then we cut with great care to the requested sizes with our catering bandsaw machine. The cubes are then frozen again to secure their sharp shape and prevent them from sticking together during and after packaging. It is important to keep the ice completely frozen before serving to ensure the best quality, and we do our part to provide that.
We offer a free consultation along with a free sample of ice for you to try out. We are here to help you figure out the best sizes for your specific glasses and cocktails, as well as provide advice on storing, serving and presentation.
