Muria Miel de tomillo
Thyme honey by Mel Muria from the limestone areas of Lleida and central Spain.
Muria Miel de tomillo is a thyme honey from the Catalan brand Mel Muria. According to the producer, it comes from the warm, dry limestone areas of Lleida and the central plateau of Spain, with the season falling in late spring and early summer.
Muria's technical card gives the colour as amber, sometimes with reddish tones. The aroma is floral with a very marked phenolic component, very intense and long. Kitchen matches suggested by the producer are red-meat dishes, strong herbal infusions and bakes made with butter or oil. The honey is warmed below 45 °C when packed and has a two-year shelf life. It is sold in a 500 g jar.
Why this matters to you: this thyme honey with its marked spicy aroma holds its own next to red meat and buttery bakes.
