Kumilio Fig Syrup

Kumilio Fig Syrup

The fig syrup is the extract of the sundried fig, water and rose geranium leaves being the only added ingredients. It can be used directly on cold dishes and salads or a refreshing bowl of yoghurt and fruits. Thanks to its noble sweet taste, it plays nicely in a wide range of recipes: from a sauce for roasted meat to bread dough. Preservable for long periods of time, it keeps most of the nutritional benefits of the sundried fig. Savory both plain as a digestif as well as combined with a liqueur!

Cóstas Lámbrou is the family’s liaison with KÍmi – otherwise called “balcony of the Aegean” – as he was born and bred there; a fertile region which, endowed by history with a particular cultural imprint, has been a source of inspiration for the family. This strong bond along with their love for the fgs, the most precious local product, has led their decision to create KumÍlio so as to convey their perception of nature, their land and its community’s tradition. Nowadays, they are taking care of about 500 fg trees at Káddi, a Kími village, where they also keep a small sorting and processing unit.
