Raw honey is honey that has not been subjected to heating, pasteurization, or filtering processes, thus retaining all its natural properties, including enzymes, antioxidants, and essential nutrients.
Raw honey is honey in its most natural state, without pasteurization or extensive filtering, which preserves its enzymes, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. It may contain particles of pollen and propolis, and tends to crystallize over time, offering a more complex flavor. In contrast, industrial honey is subjected to intensive pasteurization and filtering, which removes impurities and prolongs its shelf life, but also reduces its nutritional benefits and can result in a more uniform and less complex flavor.
Some industrial honey producers feed bees sugar or glucose, rather than allowing them to collect nectar from flowers and trees. This method is used to increase honey production and reduce prices, but it affects the quality of the final product. Honey produced this way is less nutrient rich and has a less complex flavor, as it comes from an artificial diet rather than the natural variety of floral nectar.
In contrast, our honey comes from bees that feed exclusively on the nectar of flowers and trees. This natural nectar generates a more authentic and nutrient-rich honey, preserving all its beneficial properties, such as enzymes, antioxidants and vitamins. In addition, the flavor of our honey is more varied and reflects the specific flowers and trees of the region of Spain in which it is produced, offering a more natural and healthy experience.
Our raw honey comes from hives located throughout Spain, known for its great environmental diversity. Bees collect nectar from local flora, which allows us to have a wide variety of different flavors, given the wealth of our country.
Occasionally, we work with a supplier in Portugal for a specific variety.
Our honey is the fruit of the nectar of the flora of Spain, a country with an incredible diversity of flora that ranges from the lush Mediterranean regions to the lush forests of the north and the arid areas of the south. This rich variety of plants and flowers includes native species such as rosemary, lavender or chestnut and contributes to the creation of a honey unique in flavor and properties.
The nectar collected by bees from these diverse flora provides Spanish honey with an exceptional range of aromas, flavors and nutritional benefits and high levels of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.
Furthermore, the variety of flora ensures that each type of honey has a distinctive profile, reflecting the richness and diversity of the Spanish landscape, and offering consumers an authentic and healthy experience.
Raw honey has an indefinite shelf life if stored correctly, although its flavor and aroma may change over time.
Jars of honey have been found in ancient tombs that are still edible after thousands of years. Isn't it amazing?
Raw honey should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Does not need refrigeration. Keeping the jar tightly closed helps preserve its freshness and flavor.
Yes, crystallization is a natural process in raw honey. It does not affect its quality and can be gently reversed by heating the honey. To do this, simply place the jar in warm water and stir until the crystals dissolve. You should not subject honey to temperatures above 40 degrees to prevent it from losing its properties.
Raw honey should not be consumed by babies under one (1) year old due to the risk of infant botulism. For adults and older children, it is safe and healthy, and can offer many health benefits.
In principle, raw honey is not considered vegan for the most strict, since it is a product derived from bees. However, since it is not an animal product but a plant product, it is considered suitable by the less rigorous. It is also a popular option among those looking for natural and minimally processed products.
