Did you know?

Hungary is the biggest producer of Raw Acacia Honey - in fact it has more Acacia trees than the rest of Europe combined.

The expanse of The Great Hungarian Plain in the middle of the country is the biggest producing Acacia region and in the Kiskunság National Park the Acacia trees are the first to bloom in the early Spring.

When the bloom comes to an end in Kiskunság, it’s already beginning in the north, a wild and mountainous part of Hungary.

Situated on this northern most edge of Hungary, Nógrád is an intriguing and dramatic place, famous for its ancient Gothic architecture and 13 century castles.

 

 

The breath-taking countryside is characterised by small villages nestled in the valleys with the imposing mountains showcasing peaks of over 1000m.

Nógrád is where Beekeeper Antal is located, amid the beautiful Acacia forest nestled at the foot of the western Carpathian Mountains he produces some of the highest quality Raw Acacia Honey available.
