this honey is good twice because it is produced by a social cooperative that carries out projects of reception and inclusion for disadvantaged people. The organic millefiori honey is not pasteurized to keep intact the organoleptic properties. Depending on the period of harvest and the area of origin of the hives this honey can vary in taste and color. The most diverse scents and tradition make it probably the honey most loved by consumers.
It is the only PDO honey from Tuscany, the first in Italy to have obtained the most important recognition for quality assurance. The University of Perugia has demonstrated with laboratory analyzes that the pollens of this honey are characteristic compared to those of other chestnut honeys. This food excellence comes from an uncontaminated territory (14 municipalities of Lunigiana) with 20,000 hectares of chestnut woods. Liquid consistency, dark amber color with reddish hues, persistent flavor with a bitter component that attenuates the sweetness of the honey. Excellent with homemade bread, it goes well with: Tuscan pecorino and Tuscan caciotta. It is packaged by the Il Pungiglione Social Cooperative which aims to welcome and include disadvantaged people. Produced with clean energy from a photovoltaic system.
