Alpine rhododendron honey - authentic souvenir of Trento15–35 €

Alpine rhododendron honey in Trento

Alpine rhododendron honey is one of the rarest honeys produced in the Trentino Alps. It has a very pale color, almost white when it crystallizes, and a delicate aroma with light, lingering floral notes. It is harvested by beekeepers who move their hives to high altitude during the short summer blooming of rhododendron. The result is an elegant, subtle honey, very different from the more common honeys produced in the lowlands.
