Let me know when it arrives
Where it comes from
Five hundred grams of the strongest of the three: dark, dense, with the bitter aftertaste that chestnut always leaves. It's the size for those who have already chosen it - you don't buy a small jar of chestnut honey just to try it.
Where acacia honey serves to sweeten without being noticed, chestnut honey wants to be recognized: it holds its own with aged cheeses and doesn't disappear.
- The plant
- The chestnut tree is an arboreal plant known and appreciated for its fruits and for its valuable wood. Its characteristic, slightly bitter taste is due to the presence of tannin.
- Blossom
- From mid-June to mid-July
