Mainalo fir

We produce Certified Organic Fir Honey from Mount Mainalo, at an altitude of >1000m. which is dominated by the Kefallinian fir forest.

This honey is not collected from flowers, but from the honeydew produced by microorganisms in the trunk of the fir tree. Our bees collect the honeydew from the fir trees and produce a particularly dense honey with a characteristic reddish color.

We produce the organic honey Elato Mainalo by centrifuging the combs and our honey has not undergone any heat treatment at all. That is why it keeps all its ingredients intact

LOW SUGAR
It has the lowest sugar content and therefore the fewest calories compared to other honeys

RICH IN TRACE ELEMENTS
High content of phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium and iron.

EXCELLENT TASTE
Exuberant, multi-layered and quirky taste with hints of caramel. Unique in Greece and worldwide

FIR OF MAINALO

Organic Spruce Honey is collected from coccoids & aphids that parasitize the firs of Mainalo and produce honeydew secretions exploitable by bees.

The most important of these is the coccoid Phemicryphus which parasitizes the Capellinian fir which covers large areas in the mountainous areas in Arcadia (Mount Mainalo).
