Cyprus in a box

The essentials

Every item in this collection comes from a maker we know personally. Small studios, family workshops, people who take genuine pride in what they produce. We've spent years building these relationships — visiting farms, sitting in kitchens, watching hands shape raw materials into something worth keeping.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Pressed within hours of harvest at a family mill operating since 1923 in the Pafos hills. The Koroneiki olives yield an oil with remarkable pepperiness and notes of fresh grass—hallmarks of genuine cold extraction. At 500ml, this bottle will transform your home cooking for weeks. The producer's grandson still oversees every batch personally.

Handmade Soap Set

Triple-milled in small batches by a soap maker who left banking in London for a quieter life in the Cypriot countryside. Three bars: lavender harvested from our own gardens, lemon verbena from her plot, and Damascus rose sourced from a cooperative in Bulgaria. Each lasts twice as long as commercial alternatives and leaves skin genuinely nourished.

€18.00

Honey & Jam Set

The honey comes from hives positioned in orange groves near Morphou—the bees' diet gives it citrus undertones rarely found elsewhere. Paired with seasonal preserves made by a retired schoolteacher in Lefkara, whose fig jam has won regional competitions for a decade running. Both jars feature hand-written labels and make excellent gifts for those who appreciate provenance.

€19.00

The olive groves of western Cyprus have been cultivated for millennia. The trees here are ancient — some over five hundred years old — and the oil they produce carries a depth of flavour that commercial varieties simply cannot match. Cold-pressed within hours of harvest, it arrives at your table with the countryside still in it.

For the senses

The scents and flavours that define this corner of the Mediterranean — bottled, wrapped, and ready for your suitcase. These are the things guests ask about most: the candle in the lobby, the chocolate at turndown, the wine at dinner. Now you can take them with you.

Aromatherapy Kit

A ceramic diffuser designed in Japan for whisper-quiet operation, accompanied by three essential oil blends created for Lantana: citrus and mint for mornings, lavender and chamomile for evenings, and eucalyptus and pine for clearing the mind mid-day. Compact enough for travel; many guests purchase additional sets as gifts.

€45.00

Artisan Chocolates

Twelve pieces of single-origin dark chocolate, each finished with Cypriot sea salt harvested from the Larnaca salt flats. The chocolatier—trained in Brussels, now based in Nicosia—sources cacao directly from cooperatives in Ecuador and Ghana. The salt adds a mineral brightness that elevates the chocolate's natural fruitiness. Best enjoyed at room temperature.

€24.00

Cyprus has been making wine for over five thousand years — longer than almost anywhere else. The indigenous Maratheftiko grape produces reds with a character you won't find in any supermarket. Bramble fruit, warm spice, and the unmistakable minerality of volcanic soil. This is wine with a genuine sense of place.

Local Wine Selection

From the Commandaria region—the world's oldest named wine appellation—comes this Maratheftiko red. The indigenous grape thrives in Cyprus's volcanic soils, producing wines with bramble fruit and subtle spice. This particular vintage spent fourteen months in French oak. Serve slightly below room temperature and let it breathe for twenty minutes before the first pour.

A parting thought

The best souvenirs aren't the ones you buy at the airport. They're the ones that carry a story — a conversation with a farmer, the warmth of a workshop, the taste of something made with patience rather than haste. That's what this collection is really about.
