As honey bees do not travel further than 3km, we can assume that all of the pollen that creates these honeys is gathered from the Valdueza estate. The honey is then extracted by time-honoured, traditional methods, which allow them to obtain a product of the highest quality. It is left raw, with no pasteurisation above 40 degrees, so as best to preserve its flavour and beneficial health properties.

Given that the honey has not been subjected to any physical or chemical treatment, in time it will tend to recuperate into its original, solidified state. If you prefer, it can be easily liquefied by applying heat by placing the jar in warm water.
