Overview: Celebrated all over Europe and renowned for its unique complex after taste, our Raw Chestnut honey is one of the most robust honey in our selection. For centuries Chestnut Honey has been reputed to aid digestion and boost the immune system and has been used in many traditional remedies. It is not an overly sweet honey but yet it's subtle herbal aroma and slightly bitter after taste makes it a fantastic addition to cheeses and salad dressings. Slightly varying taste, colour and texture from season to season, it is raw, natural and unpasteurized as nature intended.

Colour: Amber to Amber Dark in Colour, with clear greenish-tawny tones, more visible near the top of the jar when it touches the glass

Aroma: Herbal, Floral Aroma, with a clear component of dry wood.

Taste: A sweet caramel, tempered by clear salty notes, and often, particularly if Heather is present, slightly bitter notes; while if bramble is present, slight sharp notes and fruity aromas.

Harvest Season: Summer.

Floral Source: The bees have foraged on the blossoms of the Sweet Spanish Chestnut Tree (Castanea Sative).
