OAK HONEY – Divine & Bold

Oak Honey – an earthy, spicy delight from Greece

This Greek honeydew honey impresses with deep, earthy aromas, spicy and slightly malty notes, and a harmonious, long finish. Its distinctive taste makes it a specialty for anyone who appreciates characterful honey flavours.

Enjoy it plain from the spoon, with aged cheeses such as Pecorino, Graviera or blue cheese, or in yoghurt with walnuts. It also adds an aromatic touch to marinades for meat and roasted vegetables, as well as to enhancing strong black tea.

Crystallisation is a natural phenomenon in honey and has no effect on its quality or shelf life.

Color:

A deep, mahogany-hued dark brown with a black core and reddish-bronze highlights. In the glass, it is reminiscent of molasses or reduced syrup – a clear indication of its density and natural intensity.

Texture:

Very viscous, heavy, and syrupy. Due to its low glucose content, oak honey remains liquid for a long time and crystallizes only slowly and finely. Its concentrated, smooth texture makes it ideal for enjoying pure by the spoonful.

Aroma:

Deep, malty, and rustic. The nose reveals notes of bark, damp wood, and herbaceous earth, accompanied by a hint of smoke, caramel, and licorice. A dark, archaic scent reminiscent of old forests, campfires, and damp stones.

Flavor Profile:

• Entry: robust, slightly malty
• Heart: dark notes of molasses, dark chocolate, and roasted nuts
• Finish: long, slightly resinous and mineral – with noticeable depth and hardly any sweetness

Not a classically sweet honey, but an aromatic force of nature – intense, deep, and unmistakable.
