Natural Forest Honey / RAW

Why buy RAW natural forest honey?

The natural forest honey is one of the most special ones since honeybees do not collect it from the nectar of the flowers, but from the leaves of certain trees, especially holm oak, maple, spruce, hazel, linden, rowan, barberry, bramble, poplar and birch. The bees collect a sugary exudation of the leaves and branches of these trees. This sugary substance called myelol is produced by the aphids.

The trees we have mentioned do not have flowers so they do not have nectar, but then why do they secrete a sweet substance that is attracted to the bees ?. To produce this sweet, the aphid comes into play. The aphids live on the leaves and feed on these pecking. These small bites cause, for example, the fir trees, to release some shiny droplets, whose composition is not sap, if not hardened. These honeys are the ones that collect the bees as if they were nectar, and from here they make the curious honey of the forest.

Natural and raw forest honeys are collected practically throughout Spain except for the entire coastal zone, at the end of summer. It is of a blackish color very compact and usually takes a long time to crystallize. Its flavor is intense and strong and its nutritional properties are very high, like all honeys. It should be noted that this one, is richer in minerals in concrete in iron.
