Description
The wild strawberry tree honey from the Drosos family is collected from the flowers of the strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo), which mainly blooms in autumn in the Kefalos area of Kos. It is a unique honey, rare and with a distinctive flavor profile, known both for its intense bitter taste and its exceptionally invigorating properties.
This honey is for discerning palates, with high nutritional value, traditionally consumed to strengthen the body and aid detoxification.
Characteristics
Taste:
Intensely bitter, with deep earthy notes and mild sweetness. Its bitterness is natural and comes from the tannins of the strawberry tree. The taste leaves a strong aftertaste and stands out from all other types of honey.
Aroma:
Delicate, slightly woody and herbal, with hints of autumn vegetation.
Color:
Dark brown to reddish-brown, with a matte appearance.
Crystallization:
Crystallizes very quickly – within 1 to 2 months – which proves its naturalness and purity.
The Drosou family harvests strawberry tree honey in limited quantities due to the short flowering period and the difficulty of collection. The final product is pure, unprocessed, and extremely rich in antioxidants, antimicrobial substances, and arbutin, a natural compound with detoxifying properties.
