Organic Thistle Honey by Luigi Manias is one of the great Sardinian honeys of excellence with an intense and strong flavour , which tends to inebriate even the most difficult palates .
It recalls the flowers of the Mediterranean countryside and is unique in the panorama of Italian honeys.
The foraging bees collect the nectar of the thistle, a wild plant used to living in the arid climate of Sardinia and blooming in spring with beautiful red-purple flowers.
- Color : light amber with delicate greenish reflections when liquid, from light beige to dark beige, with yellow tones, when crystallized.
- Consistency: crystallizes spontaneously with irregular crystals.
- Aroma: strong, vaguely spicy, reminiscent of cinnamon with a light presence of nutmeg and wild thistle flowers. It demonstrates a very sweet floral component reminiscent of red fruit jams and a stronger and more subtle one, like freshly tanned leather.
- Taste: sweet and strong, at the end it gives a surprising slightly bitter aftertaste.
COLLECTION AREA . Collected exclusively from spontaneous flora in an absolutely uncontaminated area: Monte Arci Park - Ales countryside. It is a park of inestimable naturalistic value, here you can find much of the typical Sardinian vegetation.
HIGH QUALITY ORGANIC . Organic thistle honey harvested where plants and bees do not suffer accidental contamination from pesticides , herbicides and heavy metals .
