Description
Beekeeping in the Aosta Valley dates back to the 1300s, and this organic chestnut honey embodies that rich tradition. Each jar represents a commitment to sustainable practices that respect the environment and the majestic mountains.
Sourced from the Lower Valley: Our precious honey comes from the fertile lands between Arnad (famed for its cured meats) and Issogne, nestled at the entrance to the breathtaking Champorcher Valley, which leads up to the Mont Avic Natural Park.
