Fragrant and Delicious Thyme Honey from Symi.
Especially popular for its rich nutritional value and beneficial effect on our health.
The Greek Ηeather Honey has been internationally awarded in competitions such as: iTQi (International Taste and Quality Institute) in Brussels, Great Taste Awards in London, BIOL Miel in Italy for Organic Honey.
In France this honey is placed - along with chestnut and lavender honey – amongst the best French honey. The French use exclusively Heather Honey to prepare the famous French gingerbread.
Apiculture as a family business started in 1963, when our father, Stelios Stathakis, obtained his first beehives and ran a successful course. After several years of continuous effort, along with love and passion for beekeeping, our family business passed on to the following generations which continue the production with the same passion and responsibility. We feel extremely fortunate to live in an island with such a special territorial morphology.
We are beekeepers, not formulators. We pack and release exclusively our own honey to the market. The quantities are limited and always depending on the number of the beehives we exploit along with the weather conditions. The route from the beehive to the jar is made with respect to the product, without undergoing alterations, and by always complying with the rules of hygiene.
