Holm Oak Honey 320 g – Finca La Barca

Discover: Holm Oak Honey Finca La Barca 320 g

Finca La Barca’s Holm Oak Honey is a unique and intense honey, full of nuances, made from the honeydew that bees collect from holm oaks and oaks in western Spain. This non-floral origin gives it its dark colour, dense texture and deep flavour with hints of malt, caramel and wood.

A Natural and Distinct Origin

Unlike traditional nectars, holm oak honey comes from honeydew, a mineral-rich substance produced by century-old trees. It is harvested at the end of summer, when the forest reaches its highest aromatic concentration. The result is a honey rich in iron, antioxidants and trace elements, ideal for those seeking a natural, healthy and distinctive sweetness.

Deep and Authentic Flavour

This honey stands out for its aromatic intensity and complex profile. On the palate, it offers a mild sweetness with toasted notes, dark caramel and a slightly smoky touch. Its thick, velvety texture makes it a versatile delight for countless recipes.
