Raw Greek Pine Honey
Raw Greek Pine Honey
Our raw pine honey from Evvia is a classic, an incredibly smooth and full-bodied honey. Unlike other pine honeys that can have a strong malty or even woody flavor, this raw pine honey is smooth and mild, suitable for any type of use. It only occurs in the month of August from Evvia in eastern Greece and is known to beekeepers as "August Pine". Like all pine honey, it is a honeydew, similar to our award-winning Raw Serra da Estrela honey or our Raw Vanilla Fir or Red Fir honey.
Greek pine honey is also one of the most antibacterial honeys in the world, surpassing Scottish Heather, Chilean Ulmo, Tasmanian Leatherwood and many others.
This honeydew is made by bees that forage on the secretions of Marchalina hellenica, an insect that lives on the sap of the pine tree. It is a specific synergy of the insect and the tree at this time of year that makes it possible to create this beautiful honey.
Our rare and raw "Augustus" pine honey is made by Panagiotos, a friend of the bees and a truly dedicated and talented beekeeper based in the Peloponnese.
Like all high-quality raw honey, it has been received from cultural wisdom and increasingly scientifically confirmed that raw honey is an excellent prebiotic, highly antibacterial and an extremely complex superfood produced by master alchemists (honey bees) who convert nectars and complex phytochemicals into food and drugs that are uniquely beneficial to humans (and other animals). It's also very tasty.
All our honey is 100% raw, real and potted in Greece to keep the honey in the best possible condition and minimize the time between harvest and canning.
