⛰️ The Origin of a Legend: Cap Corse
Harvested during the peak of summer, between June and July, this exceptional honey is the result of the passionate work of our Meski partner beekeeper.
The hives are located at altitude, in ancient chestnut groves of the mythical Cap Corse.
In this preserved environment, bees forage an incredibly rich flora: chestnut trees, wild brambles, broom, nepita (Corsican mint), and anthyllis.
This unique biodiversity gives the honey its rare aromatic complexity and deeply rooted Corsican identity.
