It's a 100% raw pine honey, harvested from the ancient forests of Thasos, the Emerald Island of the North Aegean.
Our bees follow a centuries-old nomadic tradition, moving with the seasons to forage in the ancient pine forests of Thasos. This creates a honey naturally rich in phenolic antioxidants, essential minerals like calcium and magnesium, and other trace elements.
With its deep amber color, natural antibacterial properties, and anti-inflammatory benefits, HUN‑NEE is both nourishing and indulgent, perfect drizzled over yogurt, paired with cheeses, or savored straight from the jar.
Nomadic Beekeeping
HUN‑NEE is produced through traditional nomadic beekeeping, a centuries-old Greek practice in which hives are relocated seasonally to follow the natural flow of nectar and honeydew availability. This method ensures that colonies forage in the most nutrient-rich environments while reducing stress on the bees and supporting the health of local ecosystems.
During their seasonal migration, the hives settle in the wild pine forests of Thasos, an area known for its biodiversity and pristine environment. Here, the bees collect honeydew from the forest canopy, producing a raw pine honey with a complex mineral profile, high phenolic antioxidant content, and natural antibacterial activity. The nomadic approach not only enhances the quality and flavor of the honey but also supports sustainable beekeeping practices, promoting colony vitality, forest pollination, and long-term ecological balance.
HUN‑NEE Pine Honey is naturally lower in simple sugars like glucose and fructose compared to floral honeys, while being dense in essential minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and zinc. Its honeydew origin slows crystallization, a natural indicator of quality and balance.
Rich in phenolic antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, this pine honey supports immune function, digestive health, and sustained energy, making it both nourishing and restorative.
What You'll Taste
HUN‑NEE Pine Honey has a slightly dark, amber color, reflecting its richness and purity. Its aromatic bouquet reveals warm pine, wild herbs, and subtle caramel notes, while the palate offers a dense, velvety texture with earthy undertones, hints of toffee and dried figs, and a lingering finish of forest freshness and gentle spice.
