THYME HONEY: THE AROMATIC STRENGTH OF THE SIERRA DE ENGUERA<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]\n

In the sunniest and wildest areas of the Sierra de Enguera, where the soil is stonier and the air purer, wild thyme comes into flower. Our thyme honey is one of the most highly valued and distinctive varieties in our production; a honey with character, intensity and an overwhelming personality that reflects the resilience and strength of our mountain vegetation.<\/p>\n

A WILD AND AUTHENTIC ORIGIN<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Thyme (Thymus vulgaris<\/em>) is a shrub that defines the landscape of Enguera. Our bees collect its nectar at the height of spring, when the mountain sun intensifies the properties of this aromatic plant:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • DRYLAND ECOSYSTEM:<\/strong> Enguera thyme grows in strict dryland conditions, which makes its nectar extremely concentrated in essential oils and beneficial compounds.<\/li>\n
  • RESPECTFUL BEEKEEPING:<\/strong> Just like our organic olive grove, our hives are managed sustainably, ensuring that the harvesting process respects the life cycle of the bee and the biodiversity of the sierra.<\/li>\n
  • UNALTERED PURITY:<\/strong> Our honey is not subjected to pasteurisation or industrial microfiltration processes, keeping all pollen grains and natural enzymes intact.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]\n

    TASTING NOTES: INTENSITY AND PERSISTENCE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Thyme honey is appreciated by palates seeking flavours with greater depth and body:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • VISUAL APPEARANCE:<\/strong> It has an intense amber colour with reddish highlights. Its crystallisation is usually slow, developing a thick, full-bodied texture.<\/li>\n
    • ON THE NOSE:<\/strong> It is one of the most aromatic honeys. When the jar is opened, it releases an intense, balsamic fragrance, with a very pronounced floral note that transports you directly to the Mediterranean scrubland of Enguera.<\/li>\n
    • ON THE PALATE:<\/strong> Its flavour is sweet, but with intense notes and very subtle spicy nuances. It has a phenolic component that makes it highly persistent on the palate, leaving an aromatic and refreshing aftertaste.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”803″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”70px”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”868″ img_size=”full” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]\n

      • DIGESTIVE SUPPORT:<\/strong> It aids digestion and helps prevent flatulence and gastric discomfort.<\/li>\n
      • RICH IN ANTIOXIDANTS AND COPPER:<\/strong> Its high mineral and phenolic compound content makes it an excellent natural restorative during periods of fatigue or convalescence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=””]\n

        PAIRINGS FOR THE MOST DEMANDING PALATES<\/strong><\/h3>\n

        Thanks to its intensity, thyme honey is the queen of characterful pairings:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • MEATS AND STEWS:<\/strong> The secret ingredient for glazing game, lamb, or adding to sauces served with red meats.<\/li>\n
        • MATURE CHEESES:<\/strong> It pairs spectacularly with very mature sheep\u2019s cheeses or blue cheeses, where its strength balances the intensity of the cheese.<\/li>\n
