Additional Information

There are three unique aspects of this experience:
a) Sampling the Honey Mead, a special liqueur crafted from fermented bee honey and water (Hydromeli). This delicacy is produced exclusively in Greece by the Sotirali Family from Neapolis, who have rediscovered and patented this old local recipe.
b) Savoring the rich taste of our exclusive extra virgin olive oil, Benios, that is pressed from the local ‘Athinoelia’ olive variety.
c) Participating in wine-tasting of the distinct local ‘Malvasia’ wine, prized and sought-after during the medieval times. The original method of production has been uncovered and reinstated recently by Monemvasia Winery, thus preserving the region’s long-standing winemaking heritage.
