Organic Arbutus Honey 450gr "FASSILIS", from mount Parnon
The Arbutus Honey is collected from the nectar dews of the spring Arbutus (Arbutus Unedo) and its great nutritional value make it extremely suitable for the stimulation of our body. It has an intense, strong flavor that tastes like bitter caramel and challenges the most demanding consumers. Its color is dark bronze and it crystallizes very quickly (2-4 months from its harvesting).
It is a special type of honey offered to us directly from the gorges and the green slopes of Mount Parnon at an altitude grading from 200m-800m.
The Arbutus Honey is harvested in this virgin region from April until late May and since it is the first production of the year, bees offer their pollination services with great enthusiasm. After harvesting, the honey is packed directly into glass jars in the modern facilities of the Fasilis family. The whole process does not exceed one month from the time of harvest. Honey is then stored in dark and dry spaces, at low temperature, ready to be released for consumption.
