Era Products

Visit this little jam shop to sample natural jams and Greek fruit preserves, known as spoon sweets, handmade by Yannis Mandenakis; Mandenakis prides himself on only using three ingredients: fruit, sugar, and lemon. You may even catch him working his magic as he mixes, cans, and packages his in-season products right through the screened kitchen door in the shop.

Halaris Sweet Shop

This shop and bakery is the local go-to for anything traditional and sweet. It's known for Tinian specialties such as almond paste candies called psarakia tinou, and cheesecake bites made with Tinian cheese called gliko tiropitaki tsibiti. You’ll find yourself walking away with little gift boxes filled with your favorites, but before you go, try their homemade ice cream featuring flavors like Greek yogurt raspberry.

The House of Honey

A quaint little shop dedicated to all things honey. In hives high up in the mountains of Tinos, the bees make their delicious nectar from the wildflowers and herbs. Bee pollen, royal jelly, honey liqueur, candles, and wine from the owner's fields are also offered.
