Our bees are found on our farm “Le Peracciole,” a farm of about 9 hectares that is located in the protected area of Punta Campanella, thus the extreme tip of the Sorrento Peninsula, opposite the island of Capri.
We have about 30 hives on the farm and mainly produce 3 kinds of honey:
- Multi-flower honey
- Citrus honey
- Honeydew honey
Our wildflower honey has great aromatic richness, the result of a myriad of typical Mediterranean flowers, very rich in nutrients and a super ally for coping with seasonal ills. It has a rather deep amber color.
Citrus honey has more consistency and is produced here on the peninsula during the blooming periods of oranges and lemons; therefore, the production period is really May/June. It is a very aromatic and clear honey; when it crystallizes it tends to turn on the white. It has excellent antispasmodic and sedative properties, so it is very suitable for anxious people and people who tend to suffer from insomnia. It is then important for color who suffer from intestinal ulcers because it has healing properties.
Finally, honeydew honey, which is not nectar honey but honey that bees obtain from the collection of sugar exudation by aphids and mealybugs. It is particularly dark and is produced in dry periods when flowers are scarce. It tends to be less sweet, in fact you could say it is a mixture of bitter and sweet!!! It is a honey that should never be missing in all homes because it has great antibacterial properties and is very rich in minerals, especially iron. There are several studies that recommend its use even for people who suffer from diabetes, like all honeys it has great sweetening power, but it manages to achieve the same degree of sweetening by employing less volume than sugar
Our use of it, besides serving it naturally at breakfast, is also to use it in various culinary preparations, sweet and sour sauces, desserts, etc etc. We try to pay close attention to its use; a bee, over its lifetime, produces approximately one teaspoon of it–in a concern for the environment, it is therefore appropriate to be aware of it.
