 Bestir oneself in beekeeping since 1986.
I started the exercise in parallel with the main it my profession, which was the marble. My first contact with the bees was an occasion to find myself out of my workshop, close to nature. But the loved you so much that beekeeping eventually become my main job, a work that allows me to work in the countryside and not to confine the four walls of a laboratory.
Today, the main product of the company I have with my wife, Margaret, is the honey. But we produce in small quantities, and many other bee products such as honey from heather, pollen, royal jelly, propolis and candles, which are available in our store, "The House of honey" Pyrgos Tinos, as well as other selected stores.
Our beehives are located in the outer side of Tinos, near the Tower. Here we collect the thyme honey and then, every August, after harvest, transport them for three months in Falatado and Tsiknias where grows the briar, that, if the right conditions exist (our work depends heavily on the weather) collect and small amount of honey from heather.
The honey we produce is enriched with herbs and wildflowers of Tinos, ingredients that give gentle aroma and unparalleled taste.
Since 2010 our occupations added and viticulture since returned to Tinos our son, Dimitri. After his studies in oenology and viticulture and utilizing the experience gained by working in Nemea cultivates its own vineyards and also helps in beekeeping. Currently produces raki (fresh and aged), rakomelo, molasses and honey distillate.
When we are not at our property, next to the beehives and vines, that is the minimum our free time, we deal with the cultivation and collection of aromatic herbs which have together with our other products in the 'honey' House.
