Hatziniemmanouil Winery
For over a century, the Hatziemmanouil family has been producing wine in Kos, proudly carrying on the island’s winemaking tradition, a tradition that has existed since 4,000BC. Nowadays, with their rich experience and consistent passion for producing quality wine, the family cares for their privately owned vineyards located in the vicinity of Asfendiou, creating labels that endure the passing of time.
At close proximity to the sea and at an altitude of 105 meters, the family’s privately owned vineyards can be found. Covering up to 80 acres they are located in two areas of Asfendiou, in the northeastern side of Kos. Protected by Mount Dikaios, blessed by the Aegean breeze and favoured by the semi-tropical climate, they produce grapes of exceptional quality.
The Hatziemmanouil family’s new winery was completed in 2004. It is located at the entrance of the vineyard and is divided into three different levels, totalling 400 square meters. It is a modern and fully functioning unit, with facilities that respect the environment, evolving every year to improve the quality of wine production. The vineyard’s courtyard is laid out with chairs, tables and wooden kiosks so that visitors can enjoy their wine while taking in the view of the vineyards and the sea.

Hatzinikolaou Winery
Our father, Anthony Hatzinikolaou (Tony Stevens) was a Greek-Australian immigrant who moved back to his homeland Kos in 1967 and was an English teacher, translator and scholar for most of his life. He was a farmer’s son and, upon retiring, made a little vineyard, mostly as a hobby. Things changed when he discovered the almost extinct ancient variety now known as “Black Lady” (Mavrothyliko in Greek). He decided to protect it and cultivate it, and dreamt of one day having his own winery where this amazing grape could be turned into wine. Unfortunately he was killed in a tragic accident in April 2013 while planting the vines, and never saw our winery completed. We decided that his legacy should live on, and fulfilled his dream a few months later.
Since then, our winery has grown in size and fame, using traditional methods as well as innovative techniques to produce high quality wines at relatively low prices. You can try all of our wines for free, and buy them at most supermarkets and restaurants, as well as some hotels around the island.

Lesperides Products of Kos
- organic (some products)
“Lesperides” is a local – forgotten – word for the farmers. By using it we want to create a connection with the past and the traditional farming practices, without the use of unnecessary chemicals. It symbolises the respect for the old. The word “Lesperides” together with the illustrated plow create a logo that is well balanced and modern, and simultaneously bringing in mind the traditional character of the company.
Drosos family has its routes in Asia Minor, as most of the inhabitants of Kos Island have. For 3 generations now we keep using the traditional farming practices that were evolved through experience and pass from generation to generation.
Our goal is to exceed the expectations of our consumers by offering the finest olive oil and traditional products. In order to achieve this goal we have instituted the strictest standards according to the European regulations and our quality system is certified by HACCP and ISO.
OLIVE OIL TESTING & FARM EXPERIENCE
Most people ignore the tasting process of olive oil as it can be tasted with two different senses; Not only with our mouth but also with our nose.
We will start with a walk in our estate, after which our guests will be able to taste olive oil, according to the official procedure using the appropriate blue glasses.
COOKING CLASSES
Throughout the summer you can participate in one of our cooking lessons. Learn about the local traditional cuisine, cook with vegetables that you personally pick up from our orchard and take something back that you can share with your family and friends.

- organic
- sustainable
ASSEA Bioenergy & Biosoils was founded in 2021 in Kos and is the only fertilizing company in the South Aegean region, which produces agricultural products for the healthy growth of plants from the Greek seaweed Posidonia Oceanica (the dead leaves of the plant that are washed up on our shores). We market the unique products Bio Compost ASSEA® and Bio Soil ASSEA®, with the aim of significantly improving organic and conventional agriculture.
Driven by the circular economy, Assea is also active in the management of private and public waste and recyclable bulky organic materials offering environmentally friendly solutions. The idea of setting up in Kos, a natural fertilizer production unit using as raw material Posidonia Oceanica, was born by the founder of the company Apostolia Tsampouniari, Mechanical Engineer, who specializes in the recycling of inert materials since 2010. With insight into the need of reusing of the plant waste in the Aegean region, the first “green” organic waste management facility (pruning wastes, tree cutting residues, plant wastes etc.) was established for the production of natural fertilizer (high quality soil humus).
ASSEA products are produced by the process of composting (aerobic thermophilic fermentation). The method we use is open rows (windrows) and our raw materials include 80% seaweed of the Posidonia Oceanica waste, winemaking stems, olive leaves, olive pits, twigs and natural soil.
