Overview

Step into the world of Greek terroir with a premium tasting experience that unfolds across three distinct and carefully selected venues in the heart of Athens.

With a small-group of a maximum of 12 participants, your experience begins in one of the oldest bars in the city. In a cozy, private room surrounded by aging barrels and rich aromas, you’ll taste four premium Greek olive oils, paired with a curated snack platter. Learn the secrets behind Greece’s “liquid gold” and what makes these oils among the finest in the world.

Next, you’ll discover a completely different side of Athens, a hidden gem tucked inside a traditional stoa (arcade). With its authentic, down-to-earth atmosphere, this shop highlights local Cretan products rooted in centuries-old tradition. Your host will guide you through a tasting of artisanal goods made with love and care.

Our final destination is a refined and modern wine bar known for its deep cellar and passionate sommeliers. Here, you’ll enjoy a guided tasting of two exceptional Greek wines, perfectly complemented by a delicious snack platter. Discover Greece’s diverse wine regions, native grape varieties, and the cultural stories behind each bottle.
