Honey is nature’s sweetener and has been enjoyed by humankind for thousands of years. It is rich in phytonutrients, vitamins and polyphenols that counterbalance its natural sugars and has healing and antibiotic properties. However, most commercial honey produced in the US is mixed with sugar or corn syrup and depleted of its antioxidant nutrients through heating and pasteurization.
Our Alfa honey comes from the Fragiadakis family, hailing from a small, historic village at the foot of Mt Psiloritis in Crete. This family of beekeepers have been handing down the secrets of beekeeping for generations and continue to teach their children how to respect and care for the bees. Their honey is sustainably harvested in the bio-diverse mountains of Crete, a dense habitat of aromatic flora, like wild thyme, sage and pine. Their nomad apicultures produce a honey of unparalleled flavor and nutritional value, which is bottled without any additives and under strict quality regulations.

I can see why this honey sells out so quickly! It’s great by itself and also goes well on a charcuterie or tapas platter. Grab some for yourself and enjoy!

This thick honey has a unique herbal flavor that reminds me of horehound candy. It is a special treat on toast or drizzled on manchego for a delicious tapas dessert!
