Raw Organic Acacia Honey, La Bottega delle Api

A very delicate Acacia honey, organic and raw, harvested in Campania, a natural sweetener with a very delicate vanilla and candy aftertaste.

The Acacia honey, with its delicate flavour and a soft, floral and fruity scent goes well with blue cheeses, such as Gorgonzola. Additionally, due to its lightness, it can also be combined with semi-mature cheeses, such as provolone or pecorino, to soften their flavour. Acacia honey is also considered an anti-inflammatory and is particularly recommended for throat irritation, but also as a mild laxative. Raw Acacia honey crystalizes due to a natural process.

Not all honey is created equal. In fact, not all “honey” is even real honey, a number of ingredients are often added to what we buy as “honey”. Raw honey comes straight from the honeycomb, and is honey in its purest form. It is unfiltered, unheated and unpasteurized, processes that can destroy the natural vitamins (high in vitamin C and B vitamins), minerals and enzymes found in honey. To get the maximum benefits from honey, it's important to purchase it in its raw organic form, because regular honey has been filtered and processed, losing some of its nutritional properties along the way.

The health benefits of raw honey are endless, check our honey guide to learn about them.

Our honey is 100% Italian.

Bottega delle Api is love for nature, passion for honey and bee care.

In 1994 Francesco and Giovanni started breeding bees, moved only by their passion and without any knowledge. They started with four hives, 30 years and thousands bee stings later, they now have more than six hundred.

They consider the bees members of their family, they are looked after using only natural products and are let to enjoy and produce honey in the most uncontaminated areas of our territory. Our Mediterranean maquis is so rich in perfumes and plant essences that their honey is naturally excellent.
