Kostakis Dairy – Award-winning Cretan Cheese in Chania
Kostakis Dairy brings over 100 years of cheese-making tradition to the heart of Chania, with a new cheese shop located at 2 Dionysiou Vourvachi Street, just off Anagnostou Gogoni.
Since 1975, the Kostakis family has been producing authentic Cretan cheeses in Tzitzifes, Apokoronas, using time-honoured recipes and modern methods. Their products are known for their rich taste, thanks to the carefully selected milk from free-range animals raised in the mountainous areas of Chania.
One of their most celebrated cheeses is the Kostakis Graviera, made from 100% sheep’s milk and aged 4 to 12 months.
At Kostakis Dairy Shop, you’ll find Graviera (classic, with Boukovo, or with nutmeg), Mizithra, Aori (semi-hard with four peppers), Grilled cheese, Anthotiros, White cheese, Staka (traditional Cretan cream), Kefalotiri, Sheep’s milk, yoghurt and many more dairy delights.
Taste Awards:
Graviera Kostakis: Silver Awards (2007, 2015, 2019)
Graviera with Boukovo: Gold Award (2019)
Graviera with Nutmeg: Platinum Award (2019)
Whether you’re looking for a gourmet gift or want to bring home the flavours of Crete, Kostakis Dairy in Chania is a stop you shouldn’t miss.

2 years agoAmazing quality for authentic Cretan cheeses! I learned to eat the healthiest cheese, anthotiros, from Tyrokomika Kostakis! Finally, flower cheese with flavor!!! I have no words for the gruyere. Those friends all over Greece who have tried, ask me and ask me again to send them. Guys, now you can also find them in the store in Athens (near Varvakeio).

a year agoAmazingly traditional, but also innovative products, which combine impressively, taste, quality and upgrade the variety to choose from which have always had high standards. Cheese products that will not disappoint even passionate and ill-intentioned judges and all this at (I think) reasonable prices, taking into account the unprofitable (sometimes) mark-ups. Quality products at fair prices. And all this, in a welcoming environment in which product promotion words are minimal and are left to be told by the test sample that you will receive from the seller accompanied by tsikoudia. The rest related to the number of products and quantities to be purchased, will be indicated by your taste buds.
