About Aegina pistachios

Pistachios are Aegina’s pride, grown across the island and protected as a local product. Buy them on the quay or in the shops of town, roasted and salted, or as pistachio butter, sweets and liqueur. The harvest is in late summer; in September the island holds a pistachio festival.
