Thassos is famous for its seafood. From sardines, anchovies and prawns to sea bream, red mullet and squid and octopus. There’s a huge and delicious variety and you’ll enjoy all of it. And with so many hills, streams and greenery, there is also a great choice in meat products. Goat and lamb are definitely recommendations in a mountain taverna. Thassos is also renowned for its olive oil. It even has its own distinctly wrinkled olive, the Thassian Throuba Olive, which produces exceptional extra-virgin olive oil with low acidity. And we end our culinary tour with something deliciously sweet… Honey. With bees feeding on all those herbs and greenery, Thassian honey is renowned for its rich flavour. It is used to finish all manner of local sweets and pies, made with walnut, fig, pumpkin and other local products. Just make sure you leave some space to take some home with you.
