Our first stop is in the village of Myrtia, the birthplace of Nikos 
Kazantzakis, one of the most inspired and famous writers. We 
continue with the introduction of the olive oil production, 
“Liquid gold” was the name given by Homer to this very 
important ingredient of Cretan Cuisine. We learn the way how 
different flavors and aromas are created. Curing harsh times, 
smoked meat has always an important protein source for 
Cretans. Thus the next stop is an introduction to 
smoked meat techniques, from a young and 
passionate professional, who hasspecialized the
