Product Description
As a close neighbor to the landscapes of Provence due to soil composition and sunlight, the chestnut tree is an intimidating yet remarkably dedicated forest tree. With a trunk firmly rooted in its preferred soil, nobly tinted brown bark, and fruits encased in spiky burrs that protect the precious chestnuts within. In addition to producing nectar, the chestnut tree also secretes a liquid excreted by certain insect parasites, called honeydew. This characteristic gives Chestnut Honey its amber color, powerful aromas with relatively bitter notes, and significant nutritional value (vitamins, minerals, and trace elements). It proves to be a formidable ally in strengthening the immune system and a healthy indulgence to promote blood circulation, making it an ideal partner for Gambettes Mignonnettes organic herbal tea ! Companion to morning coffee or tea, it is also delightful when mixed with afternoon tea-time biscuits.
Harvested by Philip with utmost care for his beehives and deep respect for this rich natural process, Chestnut Honey is the result of 100% French and Provençal artisanal production.
