Forest Honey Mitica®

Discover the bold character of Mitica® Forest Honey, a rare raw honey harvested in the forests of Emilia-Romagna, Italy. Unlike traditional blossom honeys, this unique variety is created when bees collect the naturally sweet honeydew produced from tree sap rather than flower nectar, resulting in an exceptionally rich flavor and remarkable depth.

Dark, velvety, and full-bodied, this artisan forest honey offers notes of molasses, licorice, macerated golden raisins, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Naturally high in minerals and prized throughout Europe, it is a sophisticated addition to cheese boards, breakfast spreads, teas, baked goods, marinades, and gourmet recipes.

Produced by brothers Fabrizio and Pierpaolo, who have cared for their bees for more than two decades, each batch is gently extracted using centrifugal force to preserve the honey's luxurious texture and the distinctive character of this exceptional varietal.

This delicious raw honey is different from blossom honeys. Fascinatingly, the bees collect tree sap released by aphids and process it like nectar. Forest honey is prized in Europe for its high mineral content, health benefits, and strong flavor. Rich and dark, it has aromas of molasses and licorice, with complex flavors of macerated golden raisins, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Brothers Fabrizio and Pierpaolo have been tending bees and collecting honey for over 20 years. Their hobby morphed into a successful business when friends urged them to sell the honey. Their honey is extracted using centrifugal force, for a voluptuous texture that maintains the integrity of each varietal’s flavor.
