Apicoltura Casentinese Selezione Bio
The organic range of Italy's Apicoltura Casentinese: six honeys from acacia to chestnut and honeydew.
Apicoltura Casentinese Selezione Bio is the organic range of the Italian honey packer Apicoltura Casentinese, based in Bibbiena in the province of Arezzo. It has six organic honeys: acacia, thick wildflower (millefiori denso), thick orange blossom, eucalyptus, chestnut and honeydew (melata). The producer says these honeys come from groups of artisan farmers and reach the buyer just as the bees delivered them. The range page does not state the country of origin of the honey.
Why this matters to you: pale acacia sits next to dark chestnut and honeydew in this range, so one organic series covers tastes from mild to strong.
