I took it hard to leave Naxos and not make a video with a cheese maker! No matter how hard I tried, no matter how many phone calls I made, I always found doors closed! On an island par excellence of cheesemakers, not a single cheesemaker was found willing to let me videotape his craft! Until at the last moment Manolis Theonas called me and told me that his compatriot Stefanos Liofagos was willing to welcome me to his mitato! And Stefanos was indeed the best thing that could have happened to me! Pleasant, talkative, descriptive, answered all my queries and questions without hesitation! The icing on the cake was his father, the amazing Demeneos Liofagos, who played for us with his drum and tsambouna!
