Finnish natural honeys

Honey is like wine to us. For some, wine is simply red or white; for others, it contains hundreds of different flavors and aromas. Our honeys offer unique taste experiences, and they can be called carefully selected gems of Finland. They are a celebration of diverse Finnish nature with its unique flora and microclimate. The origin and natural conditions of the nectar influence the nuances of honey's taste, texture, and color.

Our bees collect honey from all over Finland. From the varied terrain of Western Finland, we utilize fields, meadows, and heaths. The uninhabited forest and bog landscapes of North Karelia impart a wild character to our honey. The northernmost hives are located above the Polar Circle, where the midnight sun and other natural conditions enable the production of unique honey varieties.

Though the harvesting season in Finland is short, the intense and bright summer allows for the collection of multiple types of honey. The main honey plants include fireweed, raspberry, white clover, rapeseed, dandelion, blueberry, lingonberry, heather, cloudberry, linden, as well as many cultivated plants such as phacelia, buckwheat, and mustard.

Single flower honey is obtained when the nectar primarily comes from a specific plant, such as heather and buckwheat honey. In these Finnish honeys, the characteristics of the origin plant are strongly noticeable. The beekeeper collects these honeys in specific areas where the respective plant is abundantly present. Bees collect nectar from the nearest plants to minimize their effort, with an effective flight radius of only 3 km.
