ABOUT OUR HONEY

Honey is sweet, it's sensational, it's timeless, it's comfort!
Greece is the land of honey as the history of this liquid gold goes way back in ancient times. Aristotle called it "the nectar of Gods" and Democritus, the famous Greek philosopher and physician lived on a diet rich with honey until he was 109 years old! Honey was a basic ingredient in cooking and a fundamental remedy not only in ancient Greece but also worldwide and still is.

Honey is nutritious as it consists of fructose, glucose, water and other sugars in addition to many enzymes, vitamins, minerals and amino acids. It is a natural energy booster, an elixir of health, beauty and good spirit in the hectic life of our times.

Honey contains a lot of antioxidants that destroy free radicals. Scientists believe that honey prevents the growth of certain types of bacteria, yeast and moulds. Therefore it is a good, if not absolutely essential alternative to sugar in food and drink, a golden, delight for food lovers.
