By focusing on cheese’s contemporary narrative, our authenticity can be preserved and our mission to help our guests can be accomplished.
Say cheese! The Greeks have been reported to smile over cheese since the years of Homer’s ‘’Odyssey’’. The act of transforming nature’s gifts into a work of art is consistent with our cultural heritage.
Year by year, the evidence of cheese production around Greece was abundant. In some areas the process was celebrated like a ritual. Since then, cheese became a vital element of the Mediterranean culture and civilization. Feta cheese- Protected Designation of Origin-, a global brand and favorite, is having its own journey throughout the world, entering the kitchens of star chefs and casual local cuisines. Today, over 65 different types of cheese are to be found in different parts of the country, all reflecting the local culinary and cultural peculiarities, as well as social and culinary evolution. Diving into the flavors of this variety is like taking a trip around the different parts of the country and having some small bites of locality.
Domotel Hotels and Resorts is set to promote all the authentic experiences that Greece has to offer, including the ones of the gastronomic spectrum. As part of our commitment to interact in a balanced way with local stakeholders, local identity and sustainability, we think it is as our duty to promote and advocate the deserving to be admired.
By supporting and focusing on cheese’s contemporary narrative – its history, geographical origin, varieties, producers, exports and production methods-, and by carefully choosing the best products, we believe that our authenticity can be preserved and our mission to help our guests discover it can be accomplished.
DIVING INTO THE FLAVORS OF THIS VARIETY IS LIKE TAKING A TRIP AROUND THE DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE COUNTRY.
