Product description

Mountain honey is a natural product produced by bees that feed on the nectar of flowers and honeydew from trees such as stone, oak, or chestnut. This honeydew is a sticky liquid secreted by certain insects, such as aphids, and collected by bees. Mountain honey is known for its unique taste and is often harvested in countries such as New Zealand and parts of Central and South America.

Taste

Mountain honey has a mild, yet also somewhat spicy taste. It combines the sweetness of flower nectar with the earthy notes of honeydew from trees. The taste can vary depending on the specific flowers and trees from which the bees collect the nectar and honeydew. It is a delicious honey with its own character.

Texture

Organic mountain honey is known for its creamy texture. It has a soft and spreadable consistency, similar to a cream. This texture makes it easy to use the honey and incorporate it into various dishes.

How can you use or eat the honey?

Mountain honey is a versatile product that can be used and consumed in various ways. Here are some ideas to enjoy this delicious honey:

• As a natural sweetener: Use mountain honey as a healthier alternative to refined sugar in tea, coffee, smoothies, and other beverages.
• As a topping: Drizzle mountain honey over foods such as yogurt, oatmeal, pancakes, waffles, and toast for a delicious and healthy breakfast.
• As a condiment: Add mountain honey as a condiment for meats, such as chicken, pork, or lamb. The honey adds a subtle sweetness and complex flavor to the dishes. It can also serve as a glaze for roasted vegetables.
  
• In combination with cheese: Combine mountain honey with goat cheese, brie, or blue cheese for a flavorful and surprising snack or appetizer. The sweetness of the honey contrasts beautifully with the savory taste of the cheese.

An important tip: If you plan to add mountain honey to your tea, make sure your tea is not warmer than 40 °C. At higher temperatures, the enzymes in the honey can be lost.
