Apicoltura Casentinese Miele di Castagno bio
Organic Italian chestnut honey from the Tuscan firm Apicoltura Casentinese.
The chestnut honey in the Selezione Bio line of the Tuscan firm Apicoltura Casentinese has a single botanical source, sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa). The producer describes its colour as dark amber with reddish-greenish tones and labels its taste as bold ('gusto deciso'). It is organic, 100% Italian and, the company says, selected in the field; harvest falls in June and July. It comes in a 350 g glass jar with a green lid and a BIO mark. With chestnut honey the producer suggests Grana Trentino cheese.
Why this matters to you: chestnut honey is often blended; here you get a single source, organic status and the months of harvest.
