Earthy. Intense. Uniquely Autumnal.

Harvested during the brief autumn bloom in the rugged mountains of Arcadia, Greece, our Wild Heather Honey is one of the most distinctive floral honeys of the Mediterranean. This raw Greek honey is collected by bees foraging on wild purple heather (Erica), resulting in a deep reddish-amber color, a powerful floral aroma, and a bold flavor profile with warm caramel-like undertones.

A Mark of Pure, Raw Integrity

Heather honey is known for its naturally rapid crystallization — a hallmark of its raw and unfiltered nature. Shortly after harvest, it transforms into a thick, buttery texture prized by honey enthusiasts as a sign of minimal processing. This natural evolution confirms that the honey has never been high-heated or ultra-filtered, preserving its authentic character.

A Legacy of Artisanal Craftsmanship

This single-origin honey is produced by Athanasios Manokas and his son Niko, fourth-generation beekeepers working in regions untouched by industrial agriculture. Harvested in small batches and packed at the source, this honey reflects the landscape, seasonality, and traditional apiculture of the Peloponnese.
