Sousamópita Strongylí (Handmade Sesame Cakes) (250g) Georgios Papastravou

Georgios Papastavrou is the third generation in the "Iannitsoni Forge." Papastavrou's grandfather, Georgios tou Antoniou, born in 1905, started a workshop in 1924 in the center of Giannitsa on Hatzidimitriou Street, focusing on the production of tahini, sesame, Turkish delight, sesame oil, candies, and jams, all entirely by hand. He was known above all for the quality of his products.

Papastavrou's father, Antonios Georgiou, born in 1934, continued the "Giannitsa Forge" at the local level in the Pella-Kilkis-Imathia-Thessaloniki prefectures, where he maintained the traditional production methods and, with his father's help, rapidly developed them. In particular, he combined the knowledge and experience (from his grandfather and father) with suitable modern machinery.
