Where Does It Come From?
Beekeeper Laimonas maintains his hives in wildflower meadows and forested regions across Lithuania, where lime trees thrive, providing rich nectar. His family has been beekeeping for generations, passing down a tradition of high-quality, pure honey production.
More About Laimonas and His Beekeeping Heritage
Laimonas’ beekeeping heritage stretches back to his great-grandparents, giving him deep knowledge of his craft. His bees roam freely in organic, remote meadows, untouched by industrial farming, allowing for the production of pure, raw honey.
What About the Lime Tree?
The Lime Tree (Tilia), known for its generous nectar, is beloved by bees and has been revered for over 2,000 years as the "tree of life." This honey captures the essence of the linden tree’s blossoms, reflecting the ancient relationship between bees and these remarkable trees.
Common Uses
Lime tree honey is renowned for its soothing properties, often used on irritated skin, wounds, and infections. Its mild acidity also makes it excellent in recipes such as desserts, salad dressings, or as a topping for cakes.
How Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey
Raw honey is minimally processed, meaning it’s packed with natural enzymes, pollen, and nutrients that are often lost during processing. Most supermarket honeys are processed to create a uniform appearance, often being drained of pollen, heated, and blended. Raw honey changes in flavour, colour, and texture depending on the season and the flowers that bees feed on, making each batch unique.
Crystallisation in Raw Honey
Raw honey tends to crystallise over time due to its natural glucose content. This is a natural process and does not affect the quality of the honey. For more information on why honey crystallises, visit our blog or check Wikipedia for a more scientific explanation.
