An escape to the mountain of Parnonas in autumn.

November 20, 2023November 22, 2023 by berlinoilconnectionNo Comments

Every year in autumn or winter I make a visit to the Southern Peloponnese. My aim is to look for new high quality products from the region. So this year we went to the mountain of Parnonas to spend three days in the mountain and combine it with this purpose. We found ourselves in Kosmas where the autumn landscape dominated every corner of the village. The central square of the village is a real gem. The large plane trees and the traditional architecture of the houses really give a unique character to the place. The food in the small taverns is also unique. Everything is local and the smells make you hungry all the time. Our first stop was at the village square in one of the central cafes. There we drank tsipouro and tasted the smoked trout that is brought from the opposite mountain, Taygetos, and specifically from the village of Kastori located at its foothills. We ate stew, mountain...

A walk in the local market of agricultural products in Skala Laconia was something I had wanted to do for a long time. But something always came up and I postponed it for the next time I would visit this small town located in the heart of the plain of Laconia. For those who don't know, Skala, is one of the most important centers of agricultural production in Laconia. The main agricultural product exported is citrus fruits (mainly oranges). Farmers in Skala produce of course also excellent quality vegetables, such as tomatoes and other vegetables. Skala is a centre of economic life in Laconia. The local market is held every Tuesday in a central point of the town and there are permanent places for producers from Skala and the surrounding villages in the area. The excellent quality olive oil soap that you can buy in Berlin from Berlin Oil Connection is produced by our friend Zoe there. A sunny Tuesday last...
