Cretan Thyme Honey is a completely natural product, unique in the world because of the specificity of the areas in which it is produced, where endemic vegetation exists. The island’s surrounding sea imparts the thyme honey with a special flavor and a unique aroma that makes it stand out among consumers.
The rare biodiversity of Crete is where that aroma and distinctive flavor are nested. This is the main characteristic of Cretan thyme honey and the key factor that Thyme honey ranks first in quality around the world. Our bees from mid-May are situated in Kissamos area, where we operate. Key locations are Cape Gramvousa, Elafonisi and Falasarna Ancient site where thyme plants thrive.
KISSAMOS
The district of Kissamos covers the northwest of the island of Crete. It is one of the least tourist regions. It combines rockery, an almost desert land.
STATHAKIS FAMILY
We chose this family of beekeepers who perpetuate the tradition from generation to generation. The members of this family make a thyme honey rich in flavor. Their beehives are displayed from March to June on the hillsides near Kissamos in a desert landscape where thyme is king.
HEALING VIRTUE
Thyme honey has exceptional therapeutic properties. We could almost equate it to a drug. Scientific studies carried out in the laboratory have shown that the latter promotes wound healing and is also very effective on burns, canker sores, acne, and pressure sores.
ANTISEPTIC PROPERTIES
Thyme honey helps treat infectious and respiratory diseases naturally. It can help treat, for example, bronchitis, coughs, flu or colds. It can even relieve asthma attacks in some cases. Thyme honey has much higher antiseptic properties than other honeys. It is not only thanks to the beneficial action of the phenols it contains but it turns out that the latter has a higher acidity index. It is ideal to fight against the proliferation of bacteria and fight infections.
