Back to newsA working group dedicated to promoting Cretan honey held its second meeting, continuing efforts to raise the profile of one of the island's most prized local products. Cretan honey, particularly thyme honey harvested from the island's mountainous regions, is widely regarded as among the finest in Greece and the Mediterranean. The working group is focused on strategies to better market and protect this product, potentially through designation of origin labels or export initiatives. For visitors, Cretan honey is readily available at local markets, farm shops, and specialty food stores across the island. It makes an excellent and authentic souvenir. Look for thyme honey from the Lasithi Plateau or the White Mountains regions for the most distinctive flavors.
