Gastronomy

Tinos is an exceptionally fertile island famed for its local products and many gastronomical feasts. Produce includes barley, oats and wheat and the area is also known for its eclectic white wine. Livestock bred includes sheep, beef cattle, pigs, poultry and pigeons, so there is a wide range of local meat and cheese produced in the area. Definitely taste some of the local cheese, spicy gruyere and kopanisti. Don’t forget to have some louza (pork fillet baked in the sun), synglino (traditional pork meat) and pasta (salty meats). And finally, don’t hesitate to try amydalota (delicate crispy and chewy almond biscuits), pastelli (honey candy), lychnarakia (sweet made of cheese) and xerotigana (honey-dipped spiral pastries).

Don’t forget that our suites in Tinos offer the best Tinos accommodation, with convenient access to pristine beaches and cultural landmarks.
