Melipona Bees Honey

$650.00 MXN

Melipona bee honey is produced by a native species of Melipona Beecheii bees, considered the soul of the jungle as they only feed on endemic flowers and help with the pollination of the area. This delicious honey, with a delicate fruity flavor and aroma, is highly prized, as a Melipona bee soap produces only one liter of honey per year. It is considered a healing substance by Mayan culture. SKU: TRASPATPROTER0062

Considered a gourmet honey and classified as a divine elixir for its medicinal and nutritional properties, melipona is a mystical substance that has been utilized since pre-Hispanic times and is now one of the most exported honeys internationally. Melipona honey is a more amber color, its taste is acidic, and it has a lighter thickness compared to Tsitsilché honey. The melipona honey harvest ends in the month of June, when the rainy season begins. In some occasions, and if the weather permits, it is collected in September and October, but generally once a year when the weather conditions are suitable, the artisanal collection is carried out directly from the hives or soap bars. Each soap bar produces between 1 and 2 liters of honey, which due to its complexity and production quantity, makes it a very valuable substance.
