Oak honey
Highly misjudged due to its dark color, beekeepers historically tended to avoid it so that it wouldn’t “dirty”- darken the other honeys! Nowadays oak tree honey sweeps all the competition prizes, and it intrigues the interest of consumers, many of whom become loyal and passionate advocates.
Oak honeydew emits strong scents of liquorish variety. It has a subtle taste of mint and a thick consistency. Its color ranges from very dark brown to almost black. Its crystallization is very slow and it’s more than likely not to develop until its consumption.
We produce Οak honey in Tymfristos, at 1300 meters height, in the borders of Evrytania with Phthiotis but also in the southern parts of Agrafa in Thessalia, or in Parnona at Peloponnese. We find it in its pure form in the August harvest when the honeydew is produced in oaks. In the same area but during the July harvest is mainly found as mixed with chestnut.
Did you know that…
- Oak honey is one of the richest in trace elements.
- Also it surpasses in antioxidants the notorious New Zealand’s manuka honey (according to research by Aristotelian University of Thessaloniki).
