How is this royal honey made?
Usually bee sweetness is created from nectar, but this time it's a wonderful journey of the senses with conifer honeydew honey from the purest forests Argentina is famous for. You can find honey from leafy honeydew, for example, in jars of nectar-honeydew honey! Honeydew, from which Argentine beekeepers extract honey, is otherwise known as honey dew. That's because there are sticky, sweet droplets on the needles and branches of trees - they are unique and not found on tree leaves. Honeydew honey straight from conifers is created by bees in cooperation with other insects! This is also due to the secretion of aphids and maggots that feed on the needles and bark of trees. They collect the processed tree sap with its many beneficial properties. This unique process makes it one of the most expensive quality honeys.
The Argentine climate is excellent for harvesting, and interestingly, the temperature and humidity that prevail during the bees' hard work affect the enzymatic transformations that take place in the bodies of the bees and other insects that collaborate in extracting the conifer honeydew. And the Argentine sunshine? It makes the taste of this honey unprecedentedly deep - see for yourself!
