Flavor Name:Bergamot Blossom Our #1 best seller. Bergamot blossom honey is a rare and sophisticated honey that is practically impossible to find in the US, and even in Italy, most Italians have never had it. That is because bergamot trees are very fussy and only grow around the area of Reggio Calabria where the soil, winds and climate contribute to making healthy, high quality bergamots. Filippo comes down the volcano with his bees in a small truck, he hops on the ferry to cross the straight of Messina to mainland Italy, and then releases the bees in an organic grove of bergamots. At the end of the month, this is the honey he obtains. Because of real estate developers, bergamot groves are more and more threatened, and they may disappear all together in the future. Right now, we are lucky to have this honey. Bergamot is a citrus shaped like a pear, it is larger than a lemon and green-yellow in color. Its rind is squeezed to extract bergamot essence, which is used to flavor earl grey tea and in perfumes. It is not be confused with the wild flower that grows in certain parts of the US, also called bergamot! Bergamot honey is tangy, fruity, floral, heady, and more sophisticated than lemon and orange blossom honeys. It has a hint of mysterious, exotic perfume on the finish, similar to bergamot oil, but very faint.

Delicious and authentic Calabrian bergamot honey - you cannot get it anywhere in stores in the USA.
I personally think that bergamot honey is one of the most delicious in the world. I bought this pack of three little jars for my clients as appreciation gifts and they were so happy they asked me where to buy this product. I highly recommend this company.

Delicious honey variety at a great price
While the jars were small (@ 30 grams or roughly one ounce), the flavor of this honey is big. I only wish I could find larger jars of our favorites. Our family have become fans of Italian honey and for $5 this lets us sample a number of offerings.

chestnut is just one possibility
very nice, nicely packaged, quick service, small and a little pricey, but nice to be able to try out different types before investing in a larger jar

Bigger jars, please!
I love the honey and the textures. The flavors are good, too. I just didn't like the novelty jars. It was hard to scoop out all the honey and I had to put the jar in the microwave for a few seconds so I could get all the honey out!
