Our popular Plattner Bienenhof chestnut honey is made from the nectar of the chestnut tree blossom and tastes slightly tart. It reminds of tannins and wood in the nose as
well as in the mouth. These flavours make it slightly less sweet and more liquid compared to others. Plattner Bienenhof Kastanien honey is a great accompaniment to
mature cheese, but also tastes great when enjoyed traditionally.

On average, our honey contains about 17-19% water, about 70% simple sugars (carbohydrates in the form of glucose and fructose), about 2.5% sucrose, about 0.1% other

Honey is a living food!

It is even said to have some interesting positive properties on the human body: sedative (calming), antiseptic (germicidal), antianemic (increases red blood cells), diuretic
(increases water excretion), and many more.

The freshly harvested honey is liquid, but can crystallise over time. This process is quite natural and the crystallised honey can be liquefied again in a warm water bath (up
to 40° C).

Honey is not suitable for children or babies under 12 months.
