Follow Antonio and his beekeepers into the forest in a special place => Sierra del Rincon UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, to the north of Madrid, Spain, where his bees collect the Mountain Oak honey.
Tim is spending a few days with Antonio Simon, one of our main beekeepers whose honey is certified organic. Tim and Antonio are going round the hives and he made this little video this morning from this wild place in a high altitude national park, where Antonio has most of his Mountain Oak hives.
By the way we've just had the last of Antonio's current stock of Oak delivered . When this is finished there won't be any more until October. Antonio's oak is very popular for its unique flavour and malty after-taste along with its antibacterial benefits, great to add to recipes or simply off the spoon.
Three generations of beekeepers have produced Luisa's Wilderness Honey Gift Box - some of the most beautiful Organic honeys from Asturias, northern Spain. Olaya talks about their approach and their passion for working in a way that respects nature, producing honey that is raw, organic, and packed with life. Asturias, with its rugged mountains and thick forests, is perfectly suited to beekeeping. The family keep their hives high in the mountains, and each member plays their part.
Raw Organic Acacia Honey is a real Hungarian specialty, as there are more Acacia Forests in Hungary than the rest of Europe combined. It has a relatively low glycemic index, therefore it is more suited for those who can be sensitive to sugar for different reasons. This also means the honey stays in a pristine-looking, runny state for a long time, like a clear liquid gold.
This catalogue is packed with exceptional finds that we have discovered on our Raw Honey travels over the last year. The aim is to bring you some of the best honeys you'll ever taste including gift sets which are perfect for sharing the wonders of raw honey with family and friends.
