ORANGE BLOSSOM HONEY

Nectar from orange blossoms. Citrically sweet Mediterranean spirit.

CHARACTERISTICS OF ORANGE BLOSSOM HONEY

Bees produce this honey from the nectar of flowers from various citrus trees (Citrus spp.), including orange, lemon, and mandarin. It has an amber-yellow color and a highly fragrant aroma. Its flavor is smooth and fruity, making it an appreciated choice among honey varieties.

Its distinctive aroma comes from methyl anthranilate, a natural compound present in orange blossoms, evoking the scent of blooming citrus trees. The intensity and persistence of its fragrance depend on the harvest region and the abundance of citrus trees in the area.

Production of orange blossom honey

It is produced from the orange trees of southern Catalonia, within the Terres de l’Ebre Biosphere Reserve, and its harvest time begins in April and ends in May.

Crystallization of orange blossom honey

Thanks to the purity of our honey, the orange blossom honey crystallizes very quickly, in a compact, disorderly way and in medium crystals. We can change its texture if we heat it up in a double boiler (or bain-marie) at less than 40ºC.

Properties of orange blossom honey

Orange blossom honey is appreciated for its soft, floral taste, with a citrusy touch that makes it a favored choice in baking and infusions. Its color varies from light golden to amber, and its texture is smooth and fluid. This honey is valued for its distinctive composition, which contributes to its unique character.

How to use orange blossom honey

Thanks to its properties, orange blossom honey is very subtle and delicate on the palate. We can use it more therapeutically or use its nutritional benefits to make cosmetics.

Orange blossom honey is also highly recommended for preparing desserts thanks to its perfume and taste, which gives them an unimprovable character. For example, orange blossom honey is a perfect companion for borraines, a typical dessert of the Terres de l’Ebre.
