Description
A rare honey harvested in the forests of Greece
Evlogia fir honey comes from the mountains of Greece, where bees gather honeydew from fir trees. Unlike floral honeys, this one does not come from flower nectar. It therefore has a denser texture, a woody flavor and a naturally moderate sweetness. Thanks to this natural process, honey retains high levels of minerals and antioxidants, much appreciated in nutrition.
A woody flavor for a variety of uses
With its intense aromas, this honey goes equally well with toast in the morning and herbal teas in the evening. It also goes well with mature cheeses, sweet and sour sauces and certain pastries. As a result, it quickly becomes an ally in the kitchen. What’s more, its heat stability means it can be used in hot dishes without losing its taste.
An authentic, unprocessed product
Hand-harvested in protected areas, Evlogia fir honey undergoes no industrial processing. It is gently filtered, then jarred by hand. In this way, it retains all its nutritional qualities. You benefit from a pure, raw product, faithful to the Greek beekeeping tradition. What’ s more, each batch reveals slightly different nuances depending on the season.
An exceptional honey for demanding connoisseurs
Ideal for those seeking complex flavors, this honey is distinguished by its deep taste and syrupy texture. It crystallizes very slowly, making it easy to store. In short, it’s for the inquisitive palate, keen to consume natural, richly-flavored products that are the product of family know-how.
