Greek Organic Pine Honey HELMOS 450gr (15.87oz)

Greek Organic Pine Honey HELMOS is collected from the pine forests of Arcadia in the Peloponnese and Evia island at an altitude of 800-1300m in both Spring (April – May) and Autumn (September – October).

Taste: Due to of the low sugar concentration, it is not too sweet.
Color: The color of the pine tree is characteristic and darker than the thyme.
Even that produced in the spring is lighter and clearer than the one produced in the autumn.
Crystallization: Crystallization of the pine tree occurs at a fairly slow pace, since its natural glucose content is low. More specifically, pure pine nuts remain fluid, that is without crystallization, for more than one and a half years.
Nutritional value: Pine nut is considered to be honey of high nutritional value, something that is indicative of its high ash rate.
This is mainly due to the large number of different substances present in its composition.
Among these substances are the minerals and trace elements (calcium, magnesium, zinc, iron, copper, etc.), which are in great concentrations in the Greek pine nuts.
