Product description

Meli Serron, Greek Pine Honey, 920gr, glass jar:
With rich aroma and velvety taste, this honey is from the Kerkini mountain, in Serres. Pine honey has the most nutrients compared to other honeys, because of its high content in trace elements and mineral salts, but also its lower sugar content. Over 65% of Greek honey production comes from conifers, mainly pines. The honey bees with the help of Marchalina Hellenica (a honeydew-producing insect which infests pines) produce the honey. The phenomenon of crystallization is rarely observed in pine honey because it is low in sugars. It’s produced in April and from August to November.
Pine honey, which is a mixture of sugars and other ingredients, provides to our body with a number of nutrients. Regarding carbohydrates, honey mainly consists of fructose (approx. 38.5%) and glucose (approx. 31%) and also smaller amounts of maltose, sucrose and galactose.
