Antica Apicoltura Gallurese

Bitter strawberry tree honey is produced in autumn during the flowering of the plant of the same name. This honey is particularly prized because bees are reluctant to forage the strawberry tree flower, but since there are no other blooms during this period in Gallura, the bees are forced to use it. This results in a honey with a bitter taste, traditionally used as a remedy for coughs, to induce sleep, and as an energy food. This honey crystallizes immediately after extraction, so it is only sold in its crystallized state. Its color is light beige. The aroma is aromatic and reminiscent of walnuts. The flavor is strong and pleasantly bitter.

The thistle honey from Antica Apistica Gallurese is produced in the hills of Gallura on natural pastures. Various species of wild thistle present in the region play a key role in its production. These blooms occur in late spring and, often, at the beginning of summer in case of late rains. For this reason, the honey has a high density and a strong flavor typical of this blossom. It is a honey with a very bold taste, characterized by a dark yellow color.

The wildflower honey from Antica Apistica Gallurese is produced in Gallura on natural pastures. Key contributors to its production include wild lavender, asphodel, heather, thistle, wild clover, and rockrose. These blooms primarily occur in the springtime, with variable prevalence depending on the season's conditions, which is why the wildflower honey exhibits varying colors, ranging from golden yellow to a more amber hue. The scent is delicate, slightly fruity with hints of wax. The taste is sweet, and the aroma is fine and floral.
