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)

    Highly Recommend it! Best Graviera & Rakomelo! Every time I visit Greece, I stop by 'Kostakis' at Agora Chanion for "Refills"...!!!! Mr. Heraklis & Mr. Nikos are amazing people. Give them a try! You won't be disappointed.

    I stopped by yesterday to pick up some cheeses. The cheeses were some of the best I've ever eaten!!! Of course I will come again!

    First of all, their smile! And kindness. Both the variety and the knowledge... Their graviera, either plain, with bukovo, or with truffle, is exquisite.
