Tziblakis Local Products of Naxos

Hora (Naxos)


The pungent aromas will bowl you over as soon as you get through the door of this colourful wonderland, a family store dating from 1938. It’s where locals come to buy bulk spices, olives, honey and cheese, and it’s crammed with a photogenic jumble of local produce and goods, from pots to brushes, soaps to ouzo and raki.
