Antonio's Raw Organic Eucalyptus Honey

According to the Great judges: They loved its "Mellow flavour that gradually builds to a floral, citrusy hit that lasts a long time on the palate" and that "It is a quality honey with a complex nose, with hints of the eucalyptus".

  • Cold-pressed
  • Origin: Harvested from the eucalyptus forests of De Coimbra, Portugal.
  • Quality: Certified organic, raw, and unpasteurized.

Aroma

Antonio's eucalyptus honey offers a fresh, clean aroma with subtle herbal notes, reflecting the essence of eucalyptus blossoms.

Flavour

This honey presents a fruity creaminess complemented by a mild eucalyptus and menthol aftertaste, providing a balanced and soothing taste experience. 

This is a relatively light-tasting tree honey. It shares characteristics with other herbal honeys, such as thyme or sage.

Colour

In its liquid state, the honey exhibits a deep orange amber hue, transitioning to a creamy tan as it crystallizes over time.

Origin

Sourced from the eucalyptus forests of De Coimbra, Portugal, where the evergreen eucalyptus trees thrive, providing rich nectar for Antonio's bees.

Producer Story

Antonio is a pioneer of organic beekeeping in Spain. His hives are mainly in Spain’s Sierra de Guadarrama north of Madrid, with some in Portugal to adapt to climate challenges. Working with his son Dani and son-in-law Ruben, he produces certified organic raw honeys (chestnut, oak, lavender, eucalyptus) and teaches beekeeping. He is sought worldwide for his ethical, organic practices.

Common Uses

Eucalyptus honey is highly versatile:

  • Culinary: Ideal as a glaze for meats, and a sweetener for cakes, flapjacks, breads, and teas.
  • Skincare: Often used in skincare for its soothing properties, aiding in the recovery from blemishes, acne, and spots.

How to store your honey

To preserve its natural potency and qualities, store the honey in a cool, dark place. Light and heat degrade the enzymes that contribute to antibacterial activity. Keeping it away from light and high temperatures helps maintain its flavour, texture, and active properties.

Why Raw Honey is Different from Processed Honey

Raw honey means it comes from the hive to the jar with minimal interference. Most supermarket honey is processed to look attractive—drained of pollen, heated, and blended. Raw honey varies from batch to batch because it is not factory-processed, filtered, or heated to be uniform. It changes with the season, climate, and bee forage.

Crystallisation

Please note that raw honey crystallises naturally (therefore we cannot accept returns on crystallised honey). We list each honey as runny or crystallised based on our best knowledge, though the state may change quickly. For details, check our Runny Honey Guide or the Wikipedia section on
