Never filtered or heated, raw honey is excellent for your health, as it retains traces of pollen, propolis and beeswax as well as its original properties and aromas. Freshly harvested, it is in a liquid state, but it crystallizes quickly and smoothly given the absence of heat in the extraction process.

Description of taste

Honeydew is a special honey collected by bees in the forest. In times of flower shortage or drought, bees will turn to the forest to find sources of nectar. They will suck up the sugars exuded by aphids found on trees, mainly conifers, and transform these sugars into honey. Honeydew is therefore not composed of flower nectars, but of aphid exudate!

Honeydew is characterized by a more caramelized, less floral taste. It is soft with a dark brown tint.

Aromas and accords

Taste | Sweet and warm The honeydew reveals caramelized, malty and butterscotch notes, with a slight bitterness of candied citrus fruits on the finish. A real treat on toast and good butter or to accompany roasted root vegetables.

Raw

Crystallized honey does not tolerate excess temperature (over 25 degrees) which risks causing its crystalline structure to collapse (phase shift). They should therefore ideally be kept in a place where the temperature does not exceed 20 degrees.

Expiration

Honey keeps forever! We recommend consuming it within 2 years of harvest. Like any food, honey is a commodity whose nutrients it is essential to preserve. These are the ideal conditions for optimal conservation.
