Our products

We pride ourselves in offering a good quality variety of honey. One very strong reason that you should buy honey from us is for the health of your family. Honey is very good especially for kids. In this day and age, kids are almost addicted to carbonated drinks.
Preparing healthy dishes and drinks with natural and organic honey base is a good way to start teaching your children about the benefits of a healthy life style.

The linden honey is a very soothing honey with calming effects. The small-leaved linden tree which grows in moist, clay soil and has clusters of small, yellow-white fragrant flowers hanging from slender stems, is common throughout Romania. It’s planted in gardens, parks and along road sides, city streets and boulevards. Linden honey is one of those honey varieties that will completely change the misconception of those who think that honey is no more than just sugared water. It has a light yellow color and a very distinctive yet delicate fresh woody scent. Because of its sedative and antiseptic qualities, it’s one of my favorite honey varieties before bedtime. It is recommended in cases of anxiety and insomnia, whereby honey can be combined with a bath of linden blossoms before sleep. Linden honey is also used in the treatment of colds, cough and bronchitis. If you go in the city of Iasi, in the eastern part of Romania, the Copou street has lots of linden trees. Walking in the evening especially, in May, calms you because of the smell of the flowers from the linden trees. Romania's national poet, Mihai Eminescu, has created some of his best poems under a linden tree that can still be seen after almost 150 years in the Copou Park located on the same street.


Another type of honey that we produce is made from acacia tree flowers. Acacia is made from nectar collected from Acacia tree blossoms which produce a honey that is remarkably clear and pure. It is one of the most popular and sweetest honey varieties because of its mild delicate floral taste. It can remain in a liquid state for a long period of time due to its high concentration of fructose. Because of its low sucrose content, it is the best choice for diabetics. Known for its therapeutic action, Acacia cleanses the liver, regulates the intestine, and is anti-inflammatory for the respiratory system. This honey is excellent for sweetening without altering the taste or the aroma of beverages. It is a great compliment to fresh ricotta cheese.Personally, I love to use this honey in my tea. It's so mild that it doesn't affect the tea's aroma which you would want to retain. Also, your kids will absolutely love this type of honey.
