A Legacy of Beekeeping
Since 1927
The Syriotis family has been taking care of bees since 1927 beneath Mount Pantokrator, at one of Corfu’s oldest villages and heritage-protected sites, Old Perithia (Palea Peritheia) in North Corfu. Over time, the younger inhabitants of Old Perithia began moving down to the coastline due to tourism. However, the Syriotis family never abandoned the village and remained committed to their beekeeping tradition.
Continuing the Tradition
Vasilis Syriotis
Today, the owner of Syriotis Family Beehives is Vasilis Syriotis. At the age of 18, he studied beekeeping in Athens, improving his skills under the observation of his grandfather and father. He has been officially registered as one of the first beekeepers on Corfu, with beekeeping number EL22/019.
with Seasonal Character
Pure Honey
The Syriotis family sells only what their bees produce, always with love, respect, and hard work. The honey naturally changes in color depending on the season: in spring it is lighter, while later in the summer it becomes darker as the bees gather nectar from chestnut trees and wild herbs.
