Delight in the subtly floral and sensationally sweet Spina-Christi Honey, a pure and rare treasure from the flowers of the Paliurus Spina-Christi. This exceptional honey, sourced from the captivating Sakar Mountain in Southeastern Bulgaria, embodies the essence of this unique region. Sakar, known for its rich biodiversity and natural beauty, is the habitat of endangered birds like the Eastern Imperial Eagle and the Lesser Kestrel.
Our Spina-Christi Honey, which received the prestigious Gold Award at the London Honey Awards in 2021, boasts a dark brownish hue. It is a product of the remote and lush wild meadows of Sakar, far from agricultural land and industrial pollutants. In this sparsely populated region of Bulgaria, our bees collect nectar amidst a landscape adorned with ancient dolmens and sanctuaries, echoing a civilization steeped in mystery.
Crafted in Emil's organic apiary, our Spina-Christi Honey is a testament to the pristine wilderness of Sakar. As a single-origin, artisan product, it remains unprocessed, unheated, and unpasteurized, ensuring its purity and natural essence. This region, also known for its expansive vineyards, contributes a unique terroir, enhancing the honey's exquisite taste and rarity.
Harvested during the brief but vibrant flowering period from July to August, the honey captures the essence of the Paliurus Spina-Christi, a plant whose pliable, spiny branches historically served as natural fences, adding depth to its rich history. Each jar is not just a sweet delight but also a piece of this intriguing story.
Embrace the uniqueness of our RAW SPINA CHRISTI HONEY, a celebration of nature's bounty and a land rich in history and natural wonders.
Please note, while a delight for the senses, our honey is not suitable for children under the age of one.
