Calluna Heather Honey from Germany – rich flavor & creamy texture
Our Calluna heather honey is a true rarity among premium honeys. Harvested from the blossoms of the common heather (Calluna vulgaris), this high-quality honey comes from German heathlands and impresses with its robust, slightly tangy flavor. Compared to Norwegian heather honey, the German variety is somewhat milder – perfect for connoisseurs who enjoy subtle herbal notes.
A hallmark of authentic heather honey is its unique consistency: due to its high content of colloids and proteins, it’s not runny but has a jelly-like, creamy-spreadable texture with a golden to amber sheen. Because of this dense structure, heather honey cannot be extracted by centrifuge – instead, it is gently pressed from the honeycombs. This labor-intensive process preserves its full aroma and purity.
For over 70 years, Honig-Schmidt has selected only the finest honeys with care and expertise. Our traditional, handcrafted processing ensures that the valuable natural nutrients remain intact – for a pure and authentic honey experience.
Our tip:
Heather honey is a natural way to support your immune system during cold and flu season – for example, stirred into warm tea. It's also a versatile culinary ingredient: whether in muesli, yogurt, desserts, or as a fine accent to goat cheese or game dishes – this honey adds rich depth and a touch of nature to your plate.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, and dark place.
Note:
Like other raw foods, honey is not suitable for infants under 12 months of age.
