Unlike so many Greek islands that are now entirely dependent on tourism, Naxos is rooted in agrarian traditions and bountiful farmlands. Alongside its timeless monuments and sublime beaches, the Cycladic island is a haven of authentic hospitality, if you know where to venture.
So it’s little wonder that his native island inspired Giorgos Korres to create his niche beauty brand, The Naxos Apothecary. In the highland villages of Naxos, I was welcomed like an old friend by shepherds, winemakers, farmers, hoteliers, and homeopaths.
