Description

Eucalyptus honey comes from the Pahou region, in the Atlantique department of southern Benin. From November to February, bees forage on eucalyptus flowers. The honey is harvested by local beekeepers, then jarred without being heated or pasteurised.

What you will taste

A light amber colour and a naturally creamy, smooth texture. The nose is delicate and caramelised, with a woody touch of eucalyptus. On the palate, complex, lightly caramelised flavours that linger. It is this roundness that pastry chefs love so much.

How to enjoy it

In baking, in a crème brûlée or madeleines. With fresh cheeses. To sweeten an Earl Grey tea or a hot infusion. Or simply on a crêpe.

Why has my honey crystallised?

Crystallisation is a natural process: over time and in the cold, the glucose in honey forms small crystals. It changes neither the taste nor the quality, and is rather the sign of a honey that has not been heated. To make it more liquid, place the open jar in a warm water bath, without exceeding 40 °C.

How should I store my honey?

At room temperature, away from light and moisture, with the lid tightly closed. There is no need to refrigerate it. It keeps for 2 years.

How can I tell if your honey is pure?

Our honeys are 100% honey: nothing is added (no syrup, sugar or preservatives) and they are neither pasteurised nor heated. Each jar comes from a precise origin, shown on its product page: harvest region and blossoming period.

Why can the colour or texture vary from one jar to another?

Each harvest depends on the blossoming and the season. A raw honey, neither blended nor standardised, may change slightly in colour and texture from one harvest to the next: it is the mark of a natural product.

Is honey suitable for young children?

Like all honey, it is not recommended for children under one year old.

When will I receive my order?

Your order is prepared within 1 to 3 working days in France, then shipped by Colissimo with a tracking number. Delivery is free on orders over €80.
