MELISSA

Melissa is a small shop in Kokkari on the island of Samos. It offers a variety of traditional greek products... The meaning of the name "Melissa" is "honeybee". We have chosen this name because honeybees thrive on a rich and varied diet of the best of wildflowers; similarly, we provide a rich variety from the best that Greece can offer: wine, ouzo, olive oil, honey, herbs, spices and sea salt. We offer regular food sampling to get your taste buds tingling. We happily answer all your questions on provenance and quality... And we offer handcrafted ceramics, beautiful and useful crafts made from olive wood or natural leather as well as natural face and body care products using purest natural ingredients such as olive oil, mastix or honey. Enjoy cotton-woven items for kitchen, bath and beach as well as large and small souvenirs, whether as a beautifully wrapped present or a keepsake for yourself, reminding you a wonderful holiday.
