The Mystery Bus trip

                  

The 2023 Pissouri Mystery Bus trip started with 43 residents meeting at The Two friends taverna. We set off heading for the Troodos mountains.

Our first stop was at the village of Argos where we visited a workshop that made traditional sweets. Our host Nikki gave us an informative talk on the process of the sweet making with rose petals and walnuts.


We then moved on down the hill to the "Rose Factory" where they use rose petals to make all manner of products including rose water, candles and cosmetics.


Our next stop was at the Gerolemo winery near the village of Omodos. Our host gave us a very entertaining  talk on the variety of wines that they produce.
We tasted six different wines and a Zouvenia.
Most of the visitors bought several bottles of wine.




Our final stop of the day was at the Anagyris restaurant near the village of Anoyra. This is where the guests enjoyed a splendid buffet lunch washed down with a bottle of local wine.
