Greek Honey
A functional food highly revered by Ancient Greeks for its ability to promote better health. Greek honey is one of the most nutritional, natural foods that is filled with vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, and contains anti-bacterial, anti-viral, and anti-fungal substances.
The year-round summer sun and the dry air create an excellent environment for the honeybees to thrive. Greece is also host to the richest flora in the Mediterranean with several hundred species found only in Greece.

Crystallization As a pure, unpasteurized and unheated honey, it will crystallize eventually as a natural phenomenon. This is an indication that the honey is pure and raw! If this occurs, place in oven at 95-105°F for 20 minutes, or immerse jar in boiled (95-105°F) water for 20 minutes.
