Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Olives
Olive Products
It's no wonder the Greeks are known for their olive oil. Fossilized olive leaves believed to be from 50.000 to 60.000 years old have been found on the Greek islands of the Aegean. This tells you that Greek ties to the olive tree run very deep indeed.
Today, Greeks still have a very special relationship with olive oil: Greece is the third highest olive oil-producing country in the world, but consumes the most worldwide! And more than that, Greek olive oil is indisputably the finest.

Honey & Propolis
Bee Products
Greek honey is considered to be one of the finest worldwide, and not without a reason. The wide biodiversity of flora – scientists and botanists consider Greece a country with the richest flora in the Mediterranean basin – combined with the unlimited Aegean summer sun result in the production of this exquisite golden nectar.
Greek Beekeepers have always loved the bees and their independence and have a profound respect for them and the environment. And this is also proven by the fact that there are more beehives per acre in Greece than in any other country in Europe.

Legumes, Pasta & Grains
Legumes & Pasta
If there is one single food family that shows off the breadth and extent of the collective Greek culinary imagination, it has to be the humble legume. The prime growing area for beans is in the north of Greece, specifically at relatively high altitudes (around 800 m) and cool temperatures and in the presence of a lake. Some of them have even won a PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) distinction from the EU, in recognition of the special characteristics these places confer.
If you visit a traditional weekly market in Greece you will stumble upon colorful stands selling all kinds of legumes, with the producers ensuring you that their product will not disappoint you. And they will be right! Orzo and thick spaghetti-like pasta are also some Greeks' favorites. Oh, and “legume pasta” is officially a thing!

Spoon Sweets, Biscuits & more
Traditional Sweets
Sure, Greek yogurt, mixed with walnuts and honey is the classic Greek dessert. But what’s a real sign of hospitality are the spoon sweets – fruits, nuts, and vegetables placed in sugar syrup, remaining firm and retaining their original color, flavor, and aroma. They are called spoon sweets because the standard serving portion is a well-filled teaspoon that is offered to guests at numerous Greek homes.
From typical Greek Christmas treats (kourampiedes and melomakarona) to sweets traditionally prepared during Easter (koulourakia and tsoureki), the list is long and those with a sweet tooth are sure to fall in love with these delicious desserts.
