An organic raw lemon honey harvested in Campania with a light colour. The taste is sweet at the first bite, followed by an evident acid perception, recalling lemon zest. On the palate it is extremely creamy, velvety, enveloping. The lemon honey can be used in any sweet or savory preparation that contemplates the use of citrus fruits, as well as in baking fish or raw on legume creams.
Please note that raw lemon honey crystalizes due to a natural process. Particularly suited for children and women, lemon honey is good for all ages and even for men, due to the vitamin C content which lemon honey abounds in.
Our honey is 100% Italian.
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 which can destroy the natural vitamins (vitamin C and B), minerals and enzymes found in honey; to get the maximum benefits from honey, it's important to buy it in its raw form.
The health benefits of raw honey are endless, check our
honey guide to learn about them.
