Luisa’s Raw Organic Creamed Chestnut Honey

Raw, enzyme-rich and cold-creamed from the remote Cantabrian Mountains in Asturias—this is a bold, full-bodied honey with savoury, smoky depth and a silky, spreadable texture.

Summary

Luisa’s Raw Organic Creamed Chestnut Honey is coarse-filtered, unpasteurised and certified organic. Cold-creamed to achieve a smooth, fine-crystal texture, this dark, robust honey is ideal for fans of bold, complex flavours. With earthy smokiness, a hint of caramel, and a bittersweet finish, it’s one of the purest honeys available thanks to its wild, unspoilt origin.

Product Highlights

  • Certified organic, raw & unpasteurised
  • Cold-creamed for a silky, spreadable consistency
  • Rich and earthy with a smoky, slightly bitter finish
  • Notes of caramel, black raisins, and prunes
  • Produced in remote Cantabrian Mountains, Asturias
  • Harvested from Sweet Chestnut trees high in minerals

Aroma

Deeply earthy with smoky undertones and subtle dark fruit sweetness—complex and warming.

Flavour

Robust, savoury, and dark: with smoky tones, hints of caramelised sugar, prunes, and a slightly metallic tingle on the finish. Rich but not cloying, bold without overwhelming.

Colour & Texture

Light creamy brown in appearance. Cold-creamed for a smooth, spoonable texture with very fine crystal formation.

Origin

Harvested in Asturias’s wild, pollution-free Cantabrian Mountains. Luisa’s hives are certified organic and surrounded by rich chestnut forests in national parklands.

Producer Story

Luisa and her daughter Olaya are passionate beekeepers in Asturias. Their raw honeys reflect a love for the land, dedication to quality, and organic-certified beekeeping traditions passed down through generations.

Common Uses

  • Soothing remedy: Great for sore throats and coughs.
  • Baking & Glazing: Works beautifully in rich cakes, marinades, and meat glazes.
  • Spreads & Pairings: Delicious on toast or with strong cheeses.

🧊 How to store your honey

Store in a cool, dark place. Avoid heat and light to preserve enzymes, flavour, and the creamed consistency.

🍯 Why Raw Honey is Different

Raw honey is unpasteurised, coarse-filtered, and unheated—preserving enzymes, antioxidants, pollen, and the natural variations of the land and season.

🌀 Crystallisation

This honey is cold-creamed to achieve a consistent, spreadable texture. Crystallisation is natural and beneficial, contributing to both taste and mouthfeel. See our Runny Honey Guide for more info.

1
What is the story behind Luisa and her family’s beekeeping operation?
Luisa has been a beekeeper for over 40 years. Going further back in time her parents and grandparents were also beekeepers. She runs a close knit family operation consisting of her daughter Olaya and son Mario, who are the beekeepers. Then her sister Ines and mother Jacoba (who is 88 and still working) help with packing the honey. Their company is based on the very distinctive honeys of Asturias and Leon, which tend to be dark and strong tasting.
2
What is the status of Luisa’s honey?
Asturias is a part of Spain where many people left the villages to go to the city in the 20th century. Therefore, it is a very wild and underpopulated region of Spain, on the north western coast of Spain. It is an ideal place for the organic honey production, which Luisa practices. Her honey is 100% raw – it is never heated or filtered beyond coarse filtering to remove any debris that remains from the hive. Therefore her honey has all the natural enzymes, pollen, and beneficial properties that make raw honey such a wonderful natural product. Being certified organic guarantees that Luisa’s beekeeping follows specific principles, such as no sugar feeding, the hives being made of natural materials, the hives being a specified distance from any non organic crops etc. There is monitoring by the organic certifier, which means inspectors can turn up without warning. Where you see where Luisa’s bees forage, on the mountain tops and in the forests that carpet the sides of the mountains you realise that this honey is super organic.
3
What types of honey does Luisa produce?
Her flagship honey is an organic Forest, which is dark and rich. On the mountain sides and tops there are both main types of heather honey. There is the heather from the genus Erica and there is the Ling heather, known as Calluna in Spain. This is a thixotropic honey, which has a jelly like consistency and is in high demand in western Europe and Japan. Then there is Chestnut honey and Eucalyptus honey. Luisa also has a range of creamed honeys, she creams Chestnut, Heather and Eucalyptus. This process gives the honey a smooth consistency, which is neither set or runny (and is still totally raw).
4
Where do Luisa’s honeys come from?
Luisa’s honeys mainly come from the region of Asturias, with some of her honey coming from the neighbouring region of Leon. These are wild mountainous forested regions. The heather varieties tend to come from the mountain tops, whilst the forest honeys come from the forests that carpet the mountain sides. In addition, the eucalyptus comes from the lower areas near to the coast of Asturias, where the air is moist and the climate milder, which perfectly suits the production of Eucalyptus honey.
5
Is there anything else I should know about Luisa’s honey?
Yes! Her honey has a Denominación de Origen (DO) certificate from the EU, which recognises its authenticity and quality as a unique product that has specific characteristics related to the soil and climate of Asturias. In addition, Luisa’s honey has won many awards. She exports some honey to Japan and there it was voted as Honey of the Year in the main honey competition there.
6
Any recommendations for ways to use Luisa’s honey?
As well as an aid when you have a cough or cold Luisa’s honey pairs very well with a Spanish cheese, such as Manchego. Pour a spoonful of her forest over a slice of Manchego cheese and see how the flavours set each other off!
7
Why are many of Luisa’s honey varieties darker than other raw honeys?
The bees forage on chestnut, oak and heather. These are honeys that are particularly high in minerals and antioxidants, especially Chestnut. The tannins (a kind of antioxidant) make the honey very dark and also give it a bit of a kick – you get a tickly feeling in the back of the throat when you swallow it.
