PLANTED EVERY YEAR IN CRETE

Creta Taste is located at Agia - Chania, in Crete, which is with-
out any doubt one of the most beautiful and fertile islands in
the Mediterranean Sea. The microclimate of the area around
Chania and Crete is widely considered as perfect for the pro-
duction of fruit such as oranges, mandarins, avocados, water-
melons, chestnuts and a wide variety of other products, giving
them a unique taste and many other special quality attributes.
