Buy rare premium oak honey now
Our honey comes from Greece from the huge, almost untouched oak forests of Foloi at the foot of the Erymanthos in Elias, as well as from the oak forests next to the world-famous rocks of Meteora. In this unspoilt, sparsely populated natural environment, our beekeeper friend Asterios produces top-quality organic honey that more than deserves the word ‘premium’. With our oak honey, you are buying one of the rarest types of honey of all honeys.
Due to its unique flavour with malty nuances, oak honey is considered a true speciality among connoisseurs. As with most other forest honeys, the colour is dark and the honey has a liquid to viscous consistency. The flavour of oak honey is unmistakable: strong, not too sweet with a good counterbalance from a slightly acidic note.
One of the reasons why oak honey is so highly prized is its high nutritional value. Rich in antioxidants and minerals such as potassium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus and sodium, oak honey is our ally for the health of our body. It also contains high levels of enzymes, proteins and vitamins that support metabolism and the proper functioning of vital organs.
Research conducted by Aristotle University in Thessaloniki in 2015 after comparing 48 honey samples from around the world found that dark oak honey has the strongest antioxidant effect. Antioxidants are very important for the proper functioning of our body by protecting our immune system.An important feature that increases the nutritional value of oak honey is its high pollen content.For our beekeeper friend Asterios, producing innovative, high-quality honeys is a top priority. Naturally, this completely excludes the use of antibiotics and pesticides.
The honey is filtered using traditional and natural methods (natural clarification in barrels).Without any thermal or other treatment, Asterios produces completely natural and unprocessed honey, which retains its natural consistency and flavour and guarantees that all of the honey's valuable ingredients are preserved. The standards and practices of organic beekeeping are consistently implemented.And you can taste it!We have been carefully tasting and selecting every type of honey and every honey harvest for over 70 years.
Our traditional production method guarantees that the valuable and healthy ingredients are preserved. Honeys from Honig-Schmidt are 100% unadulterated natural products of the highest quality.
