Cretan Honey with Thyme, Pine & Wild Herbs

AORITIKO ...means honey from the Cretan mountains

Characteristics

Authentic Cretan honey made from wild thyme, pine, and wild herbs, sourced from the unique nature of Crete. With its bright amber colour and rich aromatic profile, this honey stands out for its exceptional quality and nutritional value.

A harmonious combination of the intense aroma of wild thyme, the freshness of pine, and the earthy notes of Cretan wild herbs. Crete is home to 2,000 wild herbs, of which 190 are endemic, such as dittany, malotira (mountain tea), sage, thyme, oregano, savory, and many more, giving Cretan honey its distinctive character.
