Kumquat
The kumquat is Corfu’s signature fruit. It closely resembles orange -only much smaller and ovular- and is mainly used to make jams, jellies, drinks, and traditional desserts.
The Lazaris family specializes since 1924 in processing and bottling kumquat in liqueurs and sweets. Its tradition and heritage can be discovered in the distillery’s exhibition area, where you will find an impressive amount of old equipment, along with audiovisual material which will introduce you to all the production stages of kumquat.
Afterward, feel free to be part of a complimentary tasting -followed by a visit to the shop within the premises!
