linden honey

Linden honey from Bees of St. Ambrose was obtained by our bees from linden trees of the Tilia species. It is a small-leaved type of linden tree, which lives up to 600 years. Linden blossoms have medicinal properties and the tree is considered a symbol of Slavonicity.

The intensity of the aroma and the taste is stronger than the color would indicate. The usual rule of darker is stronger is broken with this linden honey. When very fresh it has a greenish color, but after a time it becomes clear to amber with a yellow tone. The aroma has surprising top notes of fresh eucalyptus before mellowing to rich floral notes.

This honey has low acidity and medium sweetness. It has a persistent aftertaste that reminds of a bitter citrus. Without heat treatment it is especially rich in minerals, probiotics, antioxidants and enzymes.
