Organic Thistle Honey, with a decidedly strong flavor; its intense perfume recalls that of the flowers of the Mediterranean countryside; it has a very fragrant aroma and its flavor is as strong as the smell.

The plant
The species of wild thistle in Sicily are very numerous (often they are local ecotypes) and usually do not exceed one meter in height (there are however some particular varieties that can exceed 150 cm). The inflorescences also vary from species to species:they are often small and white; sometimes, however, they are larger with colors ranging from red to pastel pink.

Appearance
Thistle honey has an amber color, with more or less light shades (sometimes, depending on the origin, it takes on a light ocher color) and tends to crystallize after about three or four months, usually with a pasty and soft crystallization.

Taste and aroma
It is a honey with a decidedly strong flavor; its intense perfume recalls that of the flowers of the Mediterranean countryside; the aroma is slightly spicy and releases all its character with a strong and characteristic bouquet.

Property
Diuretic, antiseptic, calming, febrifuge, tonic.
