Alder Buckthorn Honey from Gironde

HEDENE GIRONDE BUCKTHORN HONEY: A RARE ELIXIR OF WILD NATURE

Hédène Gironde buckthorn honey is a veritable nugget of nature, capturing the wild and distinctive essence of this plant that grows in the vast expanses of the French Landes. Unlike rosemary or mulberry honey, which are creamy, light-coloured honeys, Hédène buckthorn de France is a liquid honey with an aromatic flavour and a beautiful cognac colour. It's a rare, exceptional and surprising monofloral honey that has nothing in common with a polyfloral honey like garrigue honey, for example.

A SENSORY ODYSSEY INTO THE HEART OF RUSTIC NATURE

Its deep amber colour evokes the rustic landscapes of Gironde, while its subtle fragrance transports the senses to the sunny plains where this plant thrives. Its slightly woody, floral scent is reminiscent of the characteristic scents of these rustic landscapes. When you open a jar of this honey, a sweet aroma wafts out, transporting your senses to the vast sunny expanses where the foraging bees have collected the nectar to create this natural treasure.

A FRENCH NATURAL TREASURE CAPTURED IN THE MOUTH

Harvested in France, in the forests of Gironde, Hédène buckthorn honey surprises with its aromatic notes. This single-flower honey is characterised by its fine, aromatic flavour. With its velvety, liquid texture, the taste of Gironde buckthorn honey is delicate and complex. It is distinguished by its subtle aromas, with fruity accents and warm quince notes blossoming in a magnificent cognac colour. This is a honey with a delicate fragrance. It has a pleasant taste, with light floral and vegetal notes that linger on the palate for a long time. Its balanced sweetness and lingering aftertaste make it a truly remarkable taste experience. Borage flowers bloom from April to July, sometimes as late as September. The raw honey is harvested in July. This meticulous harvest is the fruit of harmonious work between the foraging bees, the buckthorn flowers and the beekeepers, resulting in a honey of exceptional quality that captures the very essence of this emblematic region.
