Description

When Asterios sent me a sample of this Pine Honey from Thasos, I was immediately struck by its exceptionally thick consistency – unlike any honey I had encountered before (apart from Vanilla Fir). After tasting its complex flavours, I knew this was a honey I had to share with you. I'm thrilled to present this exquisite artisan Pine Honey, a true testament to the skill of the beekeepers and the Pine trees on the Greek island of Thasos.

  • One of the thickest, most luxurious honeys we've ever encountered
  • Sourced from the father and son beekeeping team Grigoris and Triantafyllos
  • Bold, sweet pine aroma with warm, spicy undertones
  • Complex flavour profile featuring dark, dried fruits and prominent cooked fig notes

Artisan Greek Pine Honey from Thasos: Indulge in the extraordinary taste of this artisan Pine Honey, meticulously crafted by the skilled beekeepers Triantafyllos and his father Grigoris. Hailing from the idyllic island of Thasos, widely regarded as the premier location for Pine Honey in Greece, this is an exceptional honey.

Origins: The nectar for this exquisite honey is collected by bees from the Calabrian pine trees that thrive on Thasos. These majestic evergreens, part of the conifer family, can reach heights of up to 80 metres and often live for centuries, with one specimen even surpassing 4900 years. The island's unique microclimate and rich biodiversity contribute to the unparalleled quality and flavour of this Pine Honey.

Flavour Profile: From the moment you open the jar, you'll be captivated by the bold, sweet pine aroma, complemented by warm, spicy undertones reminiscent of cloves and other winter spices. As you taste the honey, its exceptionally thick, luxurious texture coats your palate, revealing a complex flavour profile dominated by dark, dried fruits and a pronounced cooked fig essence. The sweetness lingers, creating a prolonged, satisfying finish that distinguishes this Pine Honey from all others. The remarkable thickness of this honey sets it apart, a testament to the quality of the nectar and the skill of the beekeepers.

The Beekeepers: This honey is the result of the unwavering dedication and expertise of Triantafyllos and Grigoris, a father and son team. Their artisanal approach to beekeeping ensures that only the finest honey is produced, while prioritising the well-being and happiness of their bees. Asterios, known for his commitment to sourcing the highest quality Greek honey, has forged a strong partnership with these exceptional beekeepers, allowing us to bring this rare and sought-after Pine Honey to your table.

Savour the essence of Thasos with every spoonful of this artisan Pine Honey, a testament to the island's natural bounty and the skill of its beekeepers.

Common Uses: Pine honey is particularly good to use in Greek yoghurts, breads and ice cream, but perhaps best is to simply enjoy this delicious prized honey on its own.

Please know that raw honey does crystallise and this is a natural process that occurs mainly due to the natural glucose in raw honey. For more information on why honey sets visit this article and for a more scientific explanation go to wikipedia.
