What to bring back from Kefalonia
The obvious answer is Robola — the island's white grape, only bottled here (we've written a full page about it). Beyond that, Greek liqueurs make wonderful gifts because most people abroad have never tried them: Mastiha from Chios with its clean pine-resin note, Tentura from the Peloponnese with cinnamon and clove, Rakomelo, Kum Quat liqueur from Corfu, or a lovely bottle of Kefalonian rosoli.
Bottles that travel well
For someone who likes spirits, a bottle of Metaxa (5★, 7★ or the elegant Grand Fine) is unmistakably Greek and travels beautifully. A well-chosen tsipouro or a small-batch ouzo like Varvayanni Green land the same way. For whisky lovers we can gift-wrap a Talisker, a Redbreast 12 or a Macallan Double Cask — Kefalonia's memory, in a Speyside glass.
If your luggage is tight, our miniatures wall is worth a look. Full flavour, cabin-friendly size, and easy to hand out one by one when you get home.
Wrapping, packing and flying
We gift-wrap for free, in-house, with proper paper and ribbon — no plastic. For fragile bottles we can add sealed protective sleeves so they survive the flight in checked baggage. Remember: liquids over 100 ml go in the hold, not in the cabin. Duty-free airport rules only apply to bottles purchased after security, so plan your carry-on accordingly.
Not sure what to pick? Tell us who it's for — a wine drinker, a whisky drinker, someone who loves Greece — and we'll suggest three options at three prices.
