It has a light amber colour, an intense and persistent aroma and an intense taste in the mouth, depending on the flower species it is made from. High mountain honeys vary greatly according to the harvest area and altitude.

It is very rich in mineral salts and enzymes, anti-rheumatic and especially indicated for respiratory problems and urinary tract conditions.
