Perched mightily above ancient Sparta is the Mt. Parnonas range, heavily forested with the native Greek oak, which gives us this delectably dark honey. It is collected in difficult to reach areas at 3,000 feet elevation. Our darkest colored honey, it shines deep mahogany-red when held up to the light, echoing the deeply hued autumn oak leaves of its source. With its notes of horehound, burnt sugar and molasses, our Sparta Oak honey is a deeper, less-sweet honey reminiscent of the densely forested slopes high above the Peloponnesus. Please note, this honey is very thick and is not pourable.
