WE OFFER VARIOUS TYPES OF HONEY: WHY IS HONEY HARVESTED IN LATVIA SO VALUEABLE?
• •
In various regions of the world the composition of honey differs, because of different flora, blooming duration, nectar development intensity and other factors. Summers of Latvia are short, plant blooming is intensive and many of them are blooming simultaneously, therefore honeybees precisely use every proper moment to collect nectar. So, honey collected in the beehives is varied and rich in composition.

PHYSICAL QUALITIES OF HONEY:
Colour: it can be from white or various tones of yellow to brown or dark brown. It depends from the honey source, as well as storage and processing techniques. Smell and taste: can be from gentle, barely perceptible to poignant, specific. Lighter colour honey has a weaker aroma and milder taste.
Consistence: honey is solid, treacly. It doesn’t flow of the spoon – if you spin the spoon, it will twist around it. Toughness depends on the water content in honey, as well as on the temperature and the plants from which the honey is obtained. For example, clover honey is much more liquid than the spring honey or heather honey.
