What's included

  • Honey and Cheese Tasting

What to expect

At Olicatessen, a new tasting experience invites you to explore one of the most captivating pairings in Greek gastronomy: honey and cheese. Two products shaped by the land, the climate and centuries of tradition brought together in a way that feels both timeless and unexpectedly exciting.

During this experience, guests sample 6 distinctive Greek honeys alongside 6 carefully selected Greek cheeses, discovering pairings that celebrate contrast, balance and flavour harmony. You’ll experience how honey’s natural sweetness, aromatic depth and texture can transform cheese — softening sharp edges, enhancing complexity or creating a completely new conversation on the palate.

Hosted at Olicatessen, the tasting introduces participants to the rich diversity of Greek honey, its botanical origins and flavour profiles, from delicate floral expressions to bolder, more structured varieties with lingering intensity. At the same time, guests dive into the world of Greek cheese, learning about raw materials, production techniques, ageing processes and how terroir, seasonality and time shape taste and texture.
