Description
The heather honey of the Drosou family is produced in the mountainous and semi-mountainous regions of Kos, where the heather plant (Erica manipuliflora) blooms in autumn, providing bees with abundant nectar. This is a rare and particularly invigorating honey, distinguished by its velvety taste and healing properties.
It is among the most nutritious and trace element-rich honeys of the Greek nature and is often consumed to strengthen the body during the winter months.
Features
Taste:
Distinctly intense, full-bodied, and bittersweet, with a pleasant aftertaste. Heather honey has a "full-bodied" texture and leaves a characteristic sensation in the mouth.
Aroma:
Distinctive, strong, and earthy, with intense notes from the heather plant.
Color:
Dark brown to reddish-brown at the time of collection. Over time, it lightens slightly and takes on a warmer, golden-brown hue.
Crystallization:
It crystallizes relatively quickly (within 1-3 months) due to its natural glucose content – a fact that indicates its authenticity.
The Drosou family produces heather honey with utmost respect for the natural cycle, harvesting it in small quantities to preserve all its natural and beneficial components intact. Ideal for revitalization, recovery, and natural strengthening of the body.
