Honey Tasting in Athens

Join us to discover the hidden secrets of Greek honey and create a memorable local experience in Athens!

Did you know?

According to a study by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (2022), Greek oak honey has the highest antioxidant capacity compared to 6 other types of honey.Greece is the fourth largest country in the world in honey consumption per capita (approximately 1.7 kg per person per year).

Honey production in Greece is mostly small-scale and traditional, with over 65% of honey coming from forests (not from flower crops like in the rest of Europe).

Greek beekeepers have historically used natural breeding methods, which gives Greek honey a very low percentage of residues.
