Content

Apicoltura Rossi honeys are natural products, unflavoured and containing no aromas. They are produced by bees that forage in single-flower fields. The flavour of honey is influenced by the particular flower. 

Italian Clementine Honey (Miele di Clementino)

Thanks to its properties and organoleptic characteristics, clementine honey is one of the most popular types of honey. It is a monofloral honey produced mainly in southern Italy (especially Calabria). It is made when bees collect nectar from clementine blossoms (a hybrid of mandarin and bitter orange).

Clementine honey has a delicate, sweet and pleasantly tangy taste with an intense aroma reminiscent of orange blossoms and citrus peel. 

This honey is distinguished by its intense aroma and light, slightly amber colour. It tends to crystallise quickly, turning almost white. Its taste is delicate, with floral notes.

Organoleptic properties

It is rich in antioxidants, which help fight free radicals. It may soothe the mind and is ideal for promoting sleep or relieving stress. Thanks to its soothing properties, it is an excellent remedy for a sore throat.

  • Colour: Clementine honey is light in colour, ranging from straw yellow to deep gold.
  • Taste: On the palate, it offers refined sweetness with delicate floral notes and a light citrus flavour reminiscent of clementine blossoms.
  • Aroma: Fresh and floral, with a long-lasting finish reminiscent of orange blossoms.
  • Harvest period: April and May
How to use it in the kitchen Clementine honey is exceptionally versatile:
  • As it is: To bring out its flavour, spread it on toast or use it to sweeten yoghurt and tea.
  • In dessert recipes: It is ideal for cakes, biscuits and pies, adding a touch of sweetness 
  • Paired with cheese: It goes beautifully with fresh cheeses such as ricotta, or with mature, full-flavoured cheeses such as pecorino.
  • In savoury dishes: Use it to marinate white meat or glaze roasted vegetables, adding a sweet-and-sour contrast to the dish.

Apicoltura Rossi’s honey experts respect the qualities of this gift of nature at every stage of the production process, which is strictly controlled and involves no heat treatment. Handling of the product is kept to a minimum, and honeys from different batches are never blended, preserving their distinctive character.
