All about the honey Description, storage & shelf life

Greek Sidr Thorn Honey

From the wild thorn bush that grows on Greece's mountain slopes comes one of the country's rarest and most sought-after honeys. The Greek thorn bush (Paliurus spina-christi) is a close relative of the famous Sidr tree (Ziziphus spina-christi), and its honey shares many of the qualities that have made Sidr honey so treasured in the Middle East. That is why it is often called "Greek Sidr".

The flavour is full and complex: a rich sweetness balanced by fruity, slightly tart notes and finished with a smooth hint of caramel. The texture is thick and silky, with a natural density that keeps it luxuriously soft.

The honey is raw and unpasteurised, so its natural enzymes, antioxidants and nutrients are preserved. The harvest is small and depends on a short flowering season, which makes every jar a rarity: a true Greek speciality for those who value authenticity and the highest quality.

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.

Honning må ikke gives til børn under 1 år.

My 3 favourite ways

Yoghurt with figs

Yoghurt with figs

My summer favourite: Greek yoghurt, fresh figs and Sidr honey. The fruity notes in the honey match the figs perfectly.

Baked feta & honey

Baked feta & honey

Feta baked in the oven with sesame and a good spoonful of Sidr honey over it. Sweet and salty, it tastes like Greece.

In my tea

In my tea

A warm cup of tea with lemon and a teaspoon of Sidr honey when it is cold in Denmark. Let the tea cool a little first, so the honey keeps its flavour.
