 An aromatic honey, with exceptional flavour and a bright appearance. It crystallizes within 6 to 18 months of production. It has antiseptic attributes and empowers the immune system of the body.

 It has a splendid perfume and exceptional flavour. It crystallizes within 1-3 months of production. Its organoleptic characteristics are particularly liked by the consumer. It is rich in hesperidin, a flavanone glycoside, which has strong anti oxidative attributes

 A lightly colored honey, which crystallizes within 1-2 months production. Once crystallized, it has a slight yellowish hue, it is rich in polyphenols which play an important role in our diet.

 It is also named ‘sousourísio’. A product with high nutritious value, a toner for the body, and for this it is mainly found in Health Food Stores.

 With an intense characteristic odour and flavour that expresses very little bitterness. It crystallizes late, within 1-2 years of production. It has high bacterial stagnation attributes, is more resistant to heat, and can be stored for a longer period than other honeys. Chestnut Honey increases blood circulation and aids in cases of dysentery.

 Emanating from aphid secretions and produced in the pinewoods of our country. It is not particularly sweet. It rarely crystallizes, is rich in trace elements, proteins and amino- acids. It has fewer calories than Pollen Honeys.
