Sulla Honey is characterized by a very light straw yellow color, and a smell of hay, dried grass, green tea. The taste is sweet, with an aroma reminiscent of butter and milk sweets. Sulla honey is a so-called monofloral honey precisely because it comes exclusively from a single botanical origin, Sulla (Hedysarium Coronarium), precisely, which is a typical cultivation of central Sicily with particular purple-red flowers, used above all as fodder for feeding ruminants. Once produced by our bees, we go to the apiary, the honey supers are collected and taken to the honey extraction laboratory where the honey is extracted, with uncapping and subsequent centrifugation. The entire process is done cold and without any pasteurization.

It is good to remember, by the way, that honey is a product that crystallizes naturally over time. Crystallization, in fact, is a natural process in which sugars pass from a liquid to a solid state, and it is a sign that the honey is genuine and not subjected to pasteurization or other industrial processes. Some types of honey, however, due to their composition, crystallize very slowly and do not tend to crystallize, while for others, such as Sulla honey, crystallization can be a faster process.
