Editorial
The first issue of Greek Style is in your hands, a tool to navigate you in the complex task of sourcing food and wine from Greece. Fresh seasonal ingredients, value-added artisanal produce, the latest organic releases unfold before your eyes. Food and drink jargon is explained, so that it’s not ‘all Greek to you’; such as what Greek word to look out for if you’re after an appellation wine or what kind of milk PDO Kasseri must be made of (and what PDO or Kasseri are!) But not just that: travel, weekend breaks, wine tourism, fashion made in Greece comprise the modern Greek lifestyle, of which food and drink are such vital elements.
We invite you to join us on this journey from season to season through the best of what Greece has to offer. We promise you the journey will be a pleasant one, full of the scents and tastes of a country that has been enjoying the best food and wine in the world for the last 5,000 years.
