Miele di Mandorlo - L'Ape nell'Orto

Almond Blossom Honey from Puglia | Creamy, Aromatic, Gourmet

€21.00

Distinctive and refined, our Almond Blossom Honey is harvested in Puglia when orchards are in full bloom. Its aroma recalls almond brittle (croccante) with gentle floral and vegetal nuances. Less overtly sweet than classic table honeys, it delivers a clean finish that elevates both sweet and savory dishes. Naturally fast-crystallizing into a fine, creamy texture, it spreads beautifully on toast and melts smoothly into hot drinks. A rare, gastronomic honey for cheese boards, grilled meats, and craft baking.
