Raw & Unpasteurised Pine Honey from Thasos

On the island of Thasos in the northern Aegean, dense pine forests grow all the way down to the sea. Here the bees don't collect nectar from flowers. They collect honeydew from the pine trees instead, which creates a completely different honey: darker, less sweet and far more complex than ordinary blossom honey. For generations, Thasos has been known as one of the finest places in Greece for pine honey.

The flavour is deep and earthy, with resinous notes, a mild sweetness and a hint of wood and caramel. The texture is thick and velvety. Because pine honey is naturally low in glucose, it stays liquid much longer than most other honeys.

The honey is raw and unpasteurised, so its natural enzymes, antioxidants and nutrients are preserved. Every jar is a true taste of Thasos: pine forest, sea air and island summer.

Crystallisation is a natural process in raw honey and does not affect quality. Honey should not be given to children under 1 year of age.

Storage & shelf life

Opbevares ved stuetemperatur, tørt og med låget lukket – ikke i køleskab. Rå honning kan krystallisere; det er helt naturligt. Sæt glasset i lunkent vand (under 40 °C), så bliver den flydende igen.
