Thyme Honey, known as the "King" of Greek honeys, is a distinct category of honey with intense aromatic and flavor characteristics, offering a pleasant, sweet taste with notes of burning due to the high concentration of fructose. Its color ranges from light blond to amber or reddish, depending on the flora and the season of collection, while its mild and rich aroma is reminiscent of the smell of the Greek summer. Produced from the humble but aromatic thyme bush, this honey is the 10% of the annual honey crop and is sought after both for its great taste and limited production.
