Organic Vanilla Fir Tree Honey - Greek Raw Honey

This rare Greek raw honey is only harvested in the mountainous fir tree forests of Vityna in Peloponnese. It has been awarded a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) status by E.U. due to its authenticity and origin of the unique microclimate of the lush forests and mountainous wild herbs in the Arcadia region in an altitude of 2,000m and above sea level. They produce a very high quality 100% pure raw honey with delicate aroma and exceptional taste; a honey that is produced from the honeydew that comes from the juice taken by the bees with the mediation of certain insects on fir trees.

The result is a beautifully thick, rich and creamy honey with a gold/pearlescent effect that has the lowest levels of sugars and calories of any honey and does not crystalise. Its nutritional and biological values are very high and sought after, because it is rich in minerals, antiseptic and diuretic properties, and has high levels of flavonoids and phenolic compounds.

This certified organic Vasilissa Vanilla Fir Tree Honey has been produced by our organic bee keepers Stayia farm and in limited quantities. They are a small family apiary that are committed to their natural and organic apiculture and produce raw honeys free from chemicals, additives, sugars or any preservative or heat processes.

"Vasilissa" means Queen in Greek, and this is certainly honey fit for royalty! Beautiful caramel/vanilla notes, aromatic resin with a subtle "green" flavour and a finish that is clean and long and make it perfect for teas, yogurts, cheeses, cooking, marinating meats and of course on fresh bread!

And also makes a great gourmet gift for the cooks and foodies in your life!
