About Melissakis Family Olive Mill
With roots going back to the 1890s, the Melissakis olive oil business is now run by the fourth generation of the family. The mill is in Tsivaras, in the Apokoronas area of Chania, Crete, and Discover Greece reports that its oil carries a certified PDO designation.
Free guided tours of the mill include an olive oil tasting, and visits can be scheduled through the family's website. Discover Greece also mentions tasting and cooking experiences. The shop sells extra virgin olive oil and gourmet Cretan products, and the same range is available through an online shop for anyone who wants to reorder after returning home.
