Medozbir Lisovyi med
Forest honey from the Medozbir woodland apiary in the Nizhyn district, Chernihiv region.
For its forest honey Medozbir keeps hives at a woodland apiary, again in the Nizhyn area. The bees gather it from a range of forest plants — lime, rowan, raspberry, bilberry, guelder rose and alder buckthorn — and from shrubs and plants along the forest edge. The apiary gives its colour as anything from light yellow to dark brown and notes that forest honey is always darker than its meadow honey. The aroma and aftertaste are distinctive and slightly astringent. Packaging matches the apiary's other honeys: food-safe pails from half a litre to three litres.
Why this matters to you: if pale spring honeys taste too mild to you, this darker honey with an astringent edge offers a different character.
