3SANTORINI

Santorini’s volcanic geology hasn’t just resulted in its iconic tumbledown buildings but also a unique ecosystem – rich in minerals but hot and barren. The island grows its own varieties of white aubergines, fava (split yellow peas), sweet Santorini tomatoes, and luscious capers.

Viticulture is also huge on Santorini; it produces one of the most well-known (and delicious) Greek wines – Assyrtiko and other indigenous varieties thrive in its unusual vineyards.
