The well-known and beloved, particularly popular in Greece, citrus fruits are also an important source for the production of a uniquely tasty and aromatic honey. Its organoleptic characteristics and taste are particularly liked by children.
In particular, orange honey is full of aromas and flavors that take off the palate as well as the body. In the fertile Greek plains full of orange trees, the local producers transport their hives every spring leaving the bees to harvest and enjoy the rich nectar secreted by the musky white flowers of the orange tree, turning this special food into an excellent and especially sweet honey which is impossible not to adore even the most demanding consumer.
