Description
Very aromatic and intense, this Greek treasure, usually sold in small decorative jars, is a worldwide favourite. Whoever said, “If olive oil is the lifeline of Greece, then honey is the soul,” was talking about this honey. Strong and herbal with resinous, savoury flavours, it has a distinctively fresh feel. Overall, there’s a distinct hint of the herb.
Apiary Location: Lavrion, Sounio South-East Attica
Floral Source: Thymus capitatus
Pairing: Thyme honey drizzled over thick, creamy Greek yoghurt is a timeless pairing. Traditional Greek offerings are pasteli (sesame seed bars), baklava, and roasted feta drizzled with thyme honey.
Our honey varieties are sealed by hand without the use of machines in the standardisation process. A piece of useful information for consumers is that unheated/unpasteurised honey crystallises at some point. Crystallisation is a natural process. If you want to restore the honey to a liquid form, use gentle heating (immerse the jar in warm water at a temperature of about 40°C for a few hours). Avoid microwaves.
