Organic Chestnut Honey produced by a small artisanal Piedmontese company situated on the shores of the romantic Lake Orta.

 

With its dark amber colour, it stands out for its less sweet flavour compared to more delicate honeys, with intense aromatic notes and a characteristic, slightly bitter aftertaste.

 

This local speciality is available in two sizes: a 1 kg jar or a 500 g jar.

 

 

Perfect for sweetening black tea, strongly flavoured herbal teas and hot drinks when you want to add a more aromatic and less sugary note.
In the kitchen, it can be used to add character to rustic doughs, spiced biscuits, cakes with dried fruit or savoury dishes.
It pairs particularly well with mature, flavourful cheeses, such as Parmigiano Reggiano, pecorino, tome and caciocavallo, but can also be served with ricotta or fresh cheeses to create a sharper contrast.

 

• TRY IT LIKE THIS: add it to a platter of mature cheeses with walnuts, hazelnuts and rustic bread. Its slightly bitter note balances the savoury flavour of the cheese well, creating a very interesting pairing.

100% organic Piedmontese chestnut honey.
