Country of origin

Italy

Production area

Marche/Lombardy

Flowering

April - May, nowadays; flowering tended to develop towards June in the past.

Origin

Flower nectar of Robinia pseudoacacia L. (characterizing pollen > 45% but high variability) and other plant species in non-majority quantities. Acacia is a large spontaneous weed or cultivated tree, which grows up to 25 meters in height. Its leaves are uneven consisting of 5-12 pairs of opposite leaves, among which are white and fragrant flowers gathered in clusters. Native to North America, Its habitat has been expanded to all continents.

Production method

Honey extraction from honeycombs (not containing brood) with closed cells, therefore with humidity ≤ 18%: removal, uncapping, centrifugation and decantation of honey, then potting. Intact packaging without rust spots, bearing labels showing the indications required by the law in force, including the identification of the production batch. No GMOs are present and no ionizing treatments are applied.

Organoleptic
Aspects

This honey is typically liquid and remains so for a long time; it may become turbid due to the formation of crystals given the high presence of fructose, but never completely crystallizes.

Visual Examination

Almost transparent to straw yellow color.

 

Olfactory Examination

Not particularly characteristic smell and of low intensity, generally very subtle: slightly floral, it may recall the scent of Robinia flowers which is extremely delicate, or even a pear jam.

Taste Examination

From slightly to reasonably sour. Very sweet, sometimes filling, with characteristic vanilla tones (although not very marked, as usual for this type of honey) reminiscent of a sugared almond.  Poor persistence.
