The Heather Honey is collected from the nectar dews of the autumn heather which is known as “sousoura”-(Erica verticillata) and it is extremely stimulating for the bees. A successful flowering is equivalent to a second spring for the hives! In France the Heather Honey and also the honey of Chestnut and Lavender are considered the best. The famous French gingerbread is made exclusively with Heather Honey.
After harvesting, the honey is carefully filtered and packed directly into glass jars in our modern facilities. Then it is stored in a dark, dry place at low temperature ready to be released for consumption. The rich Greek nature coupled with the diligence of the family Fasilis give out an excellent product.
Keep in a cool, dry, dark and odorless place (< 15°C for long storage period). The heather honey crystallizes very quickly. The crystallization of the honey is a natural process that depends only on its plant origin. It returns to its original state with moderate heat. (bain-marie).
