Food from the Heart of Cyprus Enjoy...Kali Orexi Food from the heart of Cyprus Enjoy...Kali Orexi... Food from the heart of Cyprus h Gazing back through the centuries, one can explore Cyprus’ rich history in gastronomy with indigenous products and unique recipes that cannot be found anywhere else. Cyprus has a variety of authentic recipes for food and a variety of wines among which the most ancient wine in the world; Commandaria! Adding to the above, Cypriot cuisine, being a Mediterranean one, is one of the healthiest in spite of the fullness in flavours. The Cyprus Tourism Organisation in its attempt to further promote Cypriot gastronomy has created this exceptional booklet with traditional recipes as well as variations with a more gourmet essence. Of course, this would have not been possible without the invaluable contribution of Tonia Buxton and her team, Vanessa Courtier and Wendy Veale. Enjoy your ride through Cyprus’ Flavours! I am delighted to have been asked by the Cyprus Tourism Organisation to write a gastronomy booklet to showcase the finest cuisine in the world…that of Cyprus. I have reason, of course, to be a little biased, but I do truly believe that this island is the prized jewel of the Mediterranean. Steeped in a prolific culinary history Cyprus has been gifted with its location, wonderful climate and rich fertile land to grow in culinary delight! On the crossroads between Europe and the Middle East, along the path of the spice trading routes to China and India, the Cypriot cook has had the world’s finest ingredients at her fingertips. I have many wonderful memories about growing up in a Cypriot household and particularly revolving around food, cooking with my mother and grandmother, sharing food with friends and family. Anything of any importance in Cyprus always happens around food! Thanks to our bygone sea-faring explorers, wise ancient vintners, now today’s thriving state-of-the-art wineries, traditional farmers working alongside exciting new artisan producers, talented chefs...Cyprus from ancient to modern day has evolved without losing its very essence and spirit. This is where my love of our cuisine was born and I am proud to be able to share my passion with you. What is just wonderful about Cypriot cuisine is that whilst a gastronomic delight to eat, its styles and flavours, using quality fresh, local ingredients are so very simple and delicious. I hope you will enjoy this booklet...as a keepsake of your visit. Once back home caught up in daily life, these recipes will be a sunny reminder of when time stood still yet moved on, food revolving around festivals, family, friends....

    Zambartas Winery in Cyprus: Wines of purity and character http://www.karakasis.mw/print/87 15 OCTOBER 2016 During my last year's, first visit to Cyprus I had the chance to taste numerous wines, from mineral Xynisteris and richer Promara to structured reds from Maratheftiko and Yiannoudi. You can read my first impressions and my tasting notes here. From what I have seen and tasted so far it is clear to me that Cyprus Wine Industry undergoes a major transformation. As Demetri Walters MW describes in his excellent article Cypriot wine: Going Native [1] the industry is changing its skin very rapidly shifting more attention to indigenous varieties. Work in progress maybe the best way to describe the current wine scene which is at crossroads. 1 of 3 1/11/2016 9:16 πμ Zambartas Winery in Cyprus: Wines of purity and character http://www.karakasis.mw/print/87 One of the pioneer Cypriot wineries is Zambartas [2]family winery whose wines I did not had the chance to taste while in Cyprus but winemaker Marcos Zambartas was kind enough to provide me with more food for thought, sending me samples including a single vineyard Xynisteri. The winery was established in 2006 by the late Akis Zambartas a visionary man who during his career as oenologist in KEO, re-discovered 12 native Cypriot grape varieties, which he recorded, planted and vinified. Among them the most important were: Maratheftiko, Lefkada, Promara, Spourtiko and Yiannoudi. Now the legacy of Akis Zambartas is continued through his son Marcos, a winemaker trained in Australia who runs the winery together with his wife Marleen.

Letteratura e cultura visuale, di Michele Cometa 221 Steven Shapin THE TASTES OF WINE: TOWARDS A CULTURAL HISTORY Abstract How have people talked about the organoleptic characteristics of wines? How and why have descriptive and evaluative vocabularies changed over time? The essay shows that these vocabularies have shifted from the spare to the elaborate, from medical im- plications to aesthetic analyses, from a leading concern with “goodness” (authenticity, soundness) to interest in the analytic description of component flavors and odors. The causes of these changes are various: one involves the importance, and eventual disap- pearance, of a traditional physiological framework for appreciating the powers and qualities of different sorts of aliment, including wines; another concerns the develop- ment of chemical sciences concerned with flavor components; and still another flows from changing social and economic circumstances in which wine was consumed and the functions served by languages of connoisseurship.

  • A Conceptual Framework Towards Succession Effectiveness in Family Wineries
    A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK TOWARDS SUCCESSION EFFECTIVENESS IN FAMILY WINERIES THE “WINESUCCESS” CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK THOUKIS GEORGIOU A thesis submitted to The University of Gloucestershire In accordance with the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Business School February, 2018 ABSTRACT Succesion effectiveness in family wineries is considered critical for the incumbents and the owning families looking forward to assure winery success and transgenerational continuity, as this endeavour requires substantial commitment, social skills, financial health, and idiosyncratic considerations that are more often than not unstable. Therefore, this thesis provides a platform of critical reflection and theoretical development upon the findings of a doctoral research on the topic of effective succession in family wineries for bringing further and closer theory and professional practice. Systematic literature review of the best available sources of knowledge served as a starting point. It was shown that there is a plethora of academic research on effective family business succession that makes available useful insights into this important process. The review has identified the major theories, models, and frameworks, and provided information on different factors and variables that are believed appropriate to foster succession process further. However, the review findings are often fragmented and subjective which makes it difficult to draw valid conclusions that can be representative for family wineries. Moreover, the review revealed certain gaps and uncertainties in the research that this thesis has aimed to bridge, and allowed the development of a preliminary conceptual framework (version one) with the testable research hypotheses. A primary research that followed in the organizational context of Cypriot family wineries made use of both quantitative and qualitative approaches, at a greater and lesser extent, respectively.
