Muria Miel de azahar
Orange blossom honey from Mel Muria of El Perelló (Tarragona).
Muria Miel de azahar is an orange blossom honey (Spanish azahar) from the beekeeping house Mel Muria in El Perelló, province of Tarragona. The company gives its production area as the Mediterranean strip of Tarragona, the Levante, Murcia and the south of the Iberian Peninsula, harvested in early spring.
Muria's technical sheet lists a very light amber colour and a floral aroma with a typical citrus note that recalls orange blossom, very intense and persistent. During processing the honey is warmed below 45 °C. In the kitchen the producer pairs it with hot milk, herbal teas, fresh cheeses, tinned anchovies, duck stews and mild ice creams. It is sold in a 500 g jar.
Why this matters to you: a Spanish honey that smells of orange blossom and gives an unexpected lift even to anchovies or duck.
