Meet Spyros
Hey there! I'm Spyros Skareas, your go-to honey expert with 20+ years of experience exploring the incredible world of Greek honey. I love hosting honey tasting events for visitors from around the globe, whether it's a private session or a group gathering. And if you're up for a sweet adventure, swing by our organic apiary for a hands-on experience—you can even become a beekeeper for a day!
As a member of the Italian Register of Experts in Honey Sensory Analysis, I am excited to share my expertise with honey enthusiasts, beekeepers, and industry professionals alike. Whether you're seeking guidance in honey selection, quality assurance, or flavor profiling, I am here to lend my expertise and support.
Here's a few words about me, unless you want to visit my LinkedIn profile or my business website honey-experts.gr
With a Bachelor’s Degree in Agronomy from the Agricultural University of Athens and a Master's in Natural Resource Sciences from McGill University in Canada, I've been buzzing around the honey scene since 2002.
I started out as a beekeeping instructor and advisor for Attiki Beeculturing SA, Greece's top honey seller, sharing my passion for beekeeping and honey quality with hundreds of Greek honey producers all across the country. My goal? To help them streamline their honey production, cut costs, and boost the quality of their sweet nectar.
Aside from offering beekeeping advice, my daily routine revolves around the delightful task of honey sensory analysis and evaluation. I get to sample and savor hundreds of greek honey varieties each year, building up a palette filled with the most unique tastes and aromas.
And let me tell you about the fun part - organizing honey tasting events!
Whether it's for individuals jetting in from around the globe or for lively groups, schools, and universities, I've hosted dozens of these delightful gatherings over the years.
