The caper bush thrives on the rocky soil and dry conditions of our Island. It grows wild across Cyprus as in most Mediterranean areas, but Cypriot capers are well known and appreciated by connoisseurs worldwide for their crispiness and outstanding flavour.
Every spring we roam the countryside and collect the amazing green capers’ flower buds. We pickle them in traditional, all-natural wine vinegar and a pinch of salt. That’s it, the delicious and nutritious Mellona capers are ready for you to enjoy!
Capers are naturally low in calories and rich in plant-based antioxidants, including quercetin and rutin, which are well researched for their role in helping protect cells from oxidative stress. Traditionally used to stimulate appetite and support digestion, capers add both flavour and functional value to meals.
Perfect for enhancing sauces, salads, pasta, fish, and vegetable dishes, wild capers are a classic ingredient in recipes such as puttanesca, piccata, tapenade, and vinaigrettes. Their tangy intensity means a small amount goes a long way, making them a powerful seasoning rather than a simple garnish.

Cyprus is a small island, but it shapes its food in a unique way. Strong sun, dry soil, and a constant sea breeze. Ingredients don’t grow easily, but when they do, they carry depth, character, and are dense in essential nutrients.
Honey was at the centre of it. Not just as a product, but as something alive, complex and already complete in its natural form. We don’t try to change that. We build on it. By combining raw honey with natural, unprocessed ingredients, superfoods, superfruits, herbs, and spices, we enhance what is already there, adding layers of flavour and nutritional value without taking anything away.
That’s where our belief comes from; food, when left unprocessed and as nature intended, serves its original purpose better, nourishing the body with what it actually needs to live a healthy, balanced, and happy life. We believe food doesn’t need to be engineered, it needs to be respected. We don’t heat our honey. We don’t strip ingredients down. We don’t alter their natural structure.
We continue to work close to the land, using real ingredients from our region, respecting their nature, and keeping our processes as minimal as possible. We’re not trying to reinvent food. We’re simply trying to keep it real.
