Introduction to Syros’ Gastronomic Delights
We’ll begin your sensory journey with a visit to a modern grocery store at Syros market. The store owner’s passion for Greek products has led him to gather traditional items from across Greece, focusing on refined flavors and recipes. Since 1993, he’s been reviving local tastes, and he’ll guide you through a tour of products before you sample a plate of local delicacies.
Loukoumi: Syros’ Signature Sweet
Next, we’ll explore the art of Loukoumi, the island’s beloved sweet dessert. Made with water, starch, and sugar, the island’s unique water gives Loukoumi its distinctive flavor. You’ll learn about its history and local recipe, and enjoy tasting various flavors of this delicious treat.
Explore the Historic Episkopio Village
Our journey continues to Episkopio village, once the first metropolis of Syros. In this charming village, you’ll be welcomed into a local family home to admire historical furniture, photographs, and paintings. Mrs. Peggy will share homemade liqueurs, sweets, and stories about her family’s connection to Syros’ past.
Discover Syros’ Wine Tradition
Finally, we’ll visit a local winery, where tradition meets modern winemaking techniques. A winery team member will guide you through the process of crafting Syros’ famous wines. You’ll learn about the unique grape varieties and enjoy a tasting of the island’s distinctive rose and white wines.
