Pine Honey of Mount Athos - 1Kg

    In the undisturbed pine forests of Kapsala and Giovanitsa on Mount Athos, the Athonite honey is produced every spring and autumn. Pine Honey comes from honeydew and constitutes the 65% of the total honey production in Greece. Consumers seem to prefer it, because it is not as sweet as blossom honey.
    Pine Honey has a significant nutritional value due to the large variety of substances that coexist in its composition. A special place is held by the micronutrients, which are found in large quantities and make it a honey of high nutritional value. Sodium and potassium are also found in large quantities. It does not contain the catalase enzyme and as a result it has strong antimicrobial properties. It also has antiseptic qualities, helps in treating inflammations and acts effectively against cough and gout.
